Day Labor...

[reecelavelle]

I just recently heard about it, sounds like a good gig
like you get called when there are job openings
and you work that day and get your paycheck at the end of that day.

Anyone ever done it?
or know if that's how it actually works?

Pay is usually atrocious. Not to mention that if you are paying rent and bills, it is not a very stable source of income.

they pay you less than minimum wage?

 

[maza4ever14]

if you got a SSN, they won't. Or shouldnt at least

 

[reecelavelle]

my rent is only 300 a month. so that's all i NEED money for.
other than that is just money to party with and new clothes here and there
nothing major i'm trying to do with Day Labor.

Day laborers got a hard enough time

Gonna get the sideways stares when he shows up at the back of the local home depot

thats how it is for me @ edible arrangements..
make up to 120 a day.. only for maybe 6 or 7 hours of work.. it's good for extra income.. wouldnt depend on it tho

better be ready line up at 6am for real for real, one more time, for real

pay is decent (above Mickey Ds) but these days not much.

It used to be in the $10+ range back in the day (family member did it) but i'm 100% sure its lower these days and more scarce

 

[reecelavelle]

well, i think i might just try it out.
figure working hard labor will get me back in shape.

 

[vidasman]

Thats the ONLY thing its good for my man.. be there to line up for the job at about 5 or 5:30am,real cats dont sleep when it comes to work, youll be doing construction and hard work all day, get bout 30 minute lunch and yeah youll be in shape, but pay andall isnt a steady source bro.. good luck

 

[reecelavelle]

don't think i'm gona be getting up at 4 am, just to be there at 5
%@@%! kinda ridiculous if that's what it is.
7 maybe 6 is decent.

7 maybe 6 is decent if you want dibs on homedepot, not labor.
