Full time slacker.
I've been looking for something the last 6 months but I'm nowhere near desperate enough to work for minimum wage - I only have to support myself (no wife and kids) but I'm on a shoe-string budget and want to start blasting howitzer-sized holes in my student loans. The job market in my area is atrocious; while going through classifieds yesterday, I found a $7.25/hr gig sorting through trash (WTF?) and another $8.50/hr production line job that required the applicant to be bilingual.. I'm not using my Spanish skills for UPS starting pay.
I know of many preloaders that run landscaping businesses .
I have never meet a low maintance woman. Years ago ex girl read this in a women mag was forced to listen her complain the waxer gets paid 65 dollars an hour. Body Waxing For Men - Wax For Men - Cosmopolitan.any women that would want u to doa brozilian is too high maintenance & needs to go.
if u do it for your own satisfaction, you've got issues.
Orly something is wrong with you. Every thread you bring up anti union rants.
Hows those union dies, I mean dues, helping you out now? * dances *

Here, in Florida, theres a ton of guys working in landscaping jobs. They make huge money 6-8 months out of the year. Like 50k-75k a year cutting, edging, bagging and others. Its a cake job, lawn to lawn, it just adds up day to day.
orly, I hear you complain about your pay rate all the time. I don't think I've heard you complain about your insurance benefits or pension benefits yet.
Here's an idea for you: grow a pair, pay your dues and start your own landscape business! Make that 50-75 thousand a year (cash, if you want) and STFU!
WTF, see him struggle, Life is all about struggles.I wouldnt bring it up, ever really. Your pro-union boys did it twice to me now without asking for it. I just though, this guy I quoted, who has been up my back side about not paying dues, and seeing him struggle, just made things for me super juicy. I had to bite on it.
I'll leave it alone if they choose to first. To me, its a non-issue. I'll drop it, for good, if they stop with the attacks on me for just posting. Its as simple as that.
Where did I say I was struggling?
I'm able to drop about 10% of my weekly pay into savings, pay all of my bills early or on time, and I can go out to dinner once a week. I was just wishing I could pay off more of the principal of my student loans and had more "play" money. I'm only looking for a second job to pad my savings and pay off my loans sooner.
All while paying union dues and 2% in 401k contributions a week.
****ing scab.
Since we were on this topic on a another thread, I've started to talk with a few regulars with high seniority. All of them have discontinued their dues. Just about all of them had the same reason as I do. It does my heart good to see old timers not be so RAWR RAWR like some of you in here. Talked with a 22.3 guy, he went out for about 8 months due to illness, thus he stopped paying dues. Then he came back, and swore if he could not to pay more dues, but they confronted him about it. I said, sounds like the union came to steal money from you, and he agreed.
I could get a 2nd job, but dangit, cant seem to bring the energy to do so.
