blog help needed...

deacon · #1 (**permalink**) 03-24-2008, 09:57 AM

For those few of you reading the continuing story of Mike Burke motorbike rider on my blog, I need help... and I need it today. I don't write ahead so this has to be answered immediately.

What kind of job could an almost 60 year old stranger reasonably be expected to find in a small southern coastal town. A job with a week or so duration and which he could start almost immediately. Small background check would be okay something that could be done by phone or electronically like mvr or criminal records check maximum background. Time wise you know.

Just got a great idea from reading that thanks. Just goes to show that what seems like a major problem can turn into a simple solution with a different look at it. Thanks Joe

I just noticed I have over a thousand posts.. Wow that sure did happen in a hurry

I'm not sure I understand... I do tend to ramble but then this is the tavern and it is permitted here I think. Of course I ramble everywhere, most people just don't open anything that I write. It makes all our lives easier.

Darn! I opened one of your posts!
Just kidding, Don't know where you live but here is a one day cash job;
SKILLED PERSON NEEDED FOR SUNDAY- POOL BREAKDOWN!

I was surprised at just how many jobs are availible, under the job I linked for you there is another one that needs you for two days-cash

not around my part of the country.......

now find a carnival or fair or a china tool display coming up that is a couple day job setting up.

find a construction site & see if hiring.

check in independent garages or body shops if your qualified for that. I have found some extra work when I needed a little extra.

& yes I noticed the date of the original post has anyone else???????????????? 3/24/08.

Later,
Randy

Never noticed the date but the funny thing is that it was Deacon who brought this thread back from the past.

Get on ebay and buy 3or4 gumball machines,840 pieces of gum cost aprox.17.00 ,you make 255.00 per box. When i was 60 i did it,no work to it at all.Think about this for every 100 machines you have they will average 5.00 per day x100=500.00 per dayx30 days 15,000 per month.Idid it and so can you.5 machines is a good start,HD
