The last time this story was posted we had a lot of Nanny State Freepers that defended the police action.
Lets see if it happens again.
It will. Nothing worse than a nanny freeper when he descends. Peanut allergy! Vaccines! Crying baby on plane! Seat belts! Smoking! Soda!
RULE #1....for a task such as this utilize a verbal agreement with the home owner...if any one asks “you are related” RULE #2 CASH ONLY...its nobody’s business what you made except you and your customer. I have been self-employed for a span of 35 years and I knew exactly how to side-step all of the garbage they are talking about. It is beneficial to both the homeowner AND myself in a monetary sense...the kids hopefully learned not to put something like this on paper.

We just paid the 16 year old boy down the block $30 and a mug of hot chocolate to do our driveway. Two summers ago he restored an old Craftsman riding mower with parts he found on eBay and hung a plow off the front.
He even has a light bar on it for safety. Sharp kid.
I hear him out there doing some of the neighbors as I type this. He’s a hard working young man and he’s raking in cash today. He even added a cup holder to his creation. LOL. We threw the travel mug in as part of the deal. Considering we are looking at a foot or more of snow today I’ve got his number programmed in the phone. He will probably get a call around 7 this evening once this thing calms down.
Money well spent as far as we are concerned.
