Re: You Can Always Count On CL For A Good Laugh.
The guy's looking to have some weeds pulled, not have a new house built- is he supposed to over $80,000/year, full health insurance and a pension? I'd bet he got plenty of responses from guys who are out of work in various fields, and could use an extra $50 cash to supplement their unemployment payments.

Re: You Can Always Count On CL For A Good Laugh.
Back off, Guys! I got the job. And he went for $10 with HIS Veed Vacker. Guess he didn't have that many takers. Yeah! Me an' da Missus eats good at Burger King tonight.

Re: You Can Always Count On CL For A Good Laugh.Looking to have carport/awning built (Shirley/masstic, new york) Reply to: gigs-pbkkf-1211631534@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?] Date: 2009-06-08, 7:17PM EDT I am looking to have a carport/awning built. 11 feet long by 11 feet wide. I WILL SUPPLY ALL the materials from lowes or home depot, but need someone who can build this. You can take a look at the job, we can make a material list and get the items. I would assume it would be made from pressure treated wood for the support beams and plywood with roof shingles for the top, but open to cost effective solutions I have priced pre-made units and due to the season prices have doubled and tripled from when I checked in the winter. I have had 2 people give me quotes but have not returned phone calls. I am assuming this is a 6-8 hour job and will be available to help, willing to pay $250 and negotioable if unforseen instances arise. |

Re: You Can Always Count On CL For A Good Laugh.
And what is his plan for footings? Probably wants to rest it on those little pier blocks...
If he wasn't an hour away, I'd go look at it just to laugh at him..... |

When you reply tell them you require a 6 shot minimum, before you will start.
