It pains me to turn those down.   We’ve been trying to hire.  I’ll pay 30k a year to edge a freaking lawn.  To start!!!!   No replies.  The ones that have...can’t even pull the throttle and follow the line!  Nobody wants to work, everybody is seemingly ready to hire someone to provide a service.  I’ve jacked my prices up, they take it.  Putting me in worse of a situation.  But I can’t keep this up when a trained circus monkey can edge a freaking lawn and I’m will to train someone at 15/ hr.

We need more immigrants.
