If you live near airport, airlines hire seniors for customer care type activities which vary and you get flight benefits.

She could check with the airlines...sm
to see how much they would charge to have this as a checked baggage/box when she takes the trip. She would need to make sure she has insurance for it through them.
Only seniors come to Cape Cod
on the bus trips? I went on one of those tours this summer and we had teens and some kids that appeared to be around 7 or 8.
In the fall, it is all seniors nm

Needing some gift ideas for seniors....
Using the ole brain and trying to come up with either male or female gift items. Having dinner at my home and playing some simple games like White Elephant so I need to get about 3 gifts for the prizes. No toiletries (spelling?), thought about gift card for restaurant already, any ideas? Thanks.
Why don't you hire someone there to cut it - sm
maybe every other time or once a month to give you a break. My DH bought a $2500 tractor to cut our 5 acres(4 to cut) in the next county and has not done it once as yet, though he just had to have that tractor so he could cut the property He always has some excuse not to cut it. The tractor does get used on our 1 acre here at the house, but that is about it now (he used to cut the grass at a local church but no more). We have a local guy cut it maybe 2 x a year for $120 a pop. Obviously we are not maintaining it to look pretty. We have it cut it when it gets 2-3 feet tall basically. Last year we got away with only 1 time, not quite sure how we did that though.
Do It Yourself? or Hire Out?
Just curious--how much do you do yourself around the house? When do you pay others to do the work?
When we bought the house in the country, the previous owner was telling me about: the guys who plow her driveway, her cleaning lady, and she offered to give me the name of her window cleaner.
We don't pay others to do what we can do ourselves. I do the: cleaning, gardening, window-washing, painting. DH does the lawn, small repairs, clears the driveway, etc.
Only time we pay someone else is when the job requires more expertise than we have--for instance having the heater repaired, or major electrical work (DH can do the small stuff).
I even ripped down the 4 foot stockade fence in the back yard, tilled my vegetable patch, dug up some medium-sized bushes, etc. myself.
So, how much are you willing to do? where do you draw the line? Why?
First thing I'd do would be to hire
an honest, trustworthy Financial Advisor, who happens to be my brother's best friend of 25 years.
Yep, then they can hire the cast of ER.

That is true but the owners who hire them
should be held accountable. The American roofing/contruction co owners that do not want to pay their share of tax or pay a descent wage to a legal worker should be held accountable. The immigrants working illegal are just trying to make a living. (Yes it's stealing and wrong and I do not approve. Especially when they bring their whole families here.) The owners of these company are the real cheats though. They buy big vans and pick them up and drop them off. It's horrible wages are so low for hourly workers now. :(
Every now and then I hire my neighbor's daughter - sm
who is now 15 to babysit my 2 (7 and 8). She has 2 younger brothers (6&7) so plenty of experience being around younger kids (plus her mom is right up the road if there is a problem). I pay her $5/hour and usually a $5 tip to boot. Kids have a blast with her too, so it all works out.
Seems to me, agency so glad to hire out MT, just

All the kids should pitch in to hire help. Shouldn't all be on
:P
Then you're lucky!! Yes! I would hire her to do it and I think $15 is great! (nm)

I'd still hire a local general contractor.
Whether modular or traditional stick-built, there are a million details, legalities and regulations involved - and you'll likely still need some local subcontractors. A good general contractor can save you a ton of grief and bad experiences.
It is o.k. to hire firends to do the work cheaper,
but this lady is crazy! Do not give her any money, a deal is a deal and the husband is happy. If she needs some money, she should ask her husband for it.
Because meds and utilities are going sky high and no one will hire them nm
....
WalMart also contracts out companies they know hire illegals. There was
not too long ago.
Maybe next time hire a company that employs US citizens ; )

You just nailed it. Companies hire illegal immigrants.

Honestly, if I were you, I would hire a real estate agent to help
xx
Well, in a bank he would be handling money, so I think it's a legit reason to not hire. sm
To me, it makes perfect sense to not hire someone based on poor credit when that person would be working in an environment such as a bank, handling funds, etc. I see less reason to do so in other jobs, but in a bank, sure, it seems only logical to me. Sorry.
Make your own income, hire a plumber. Total unnecessary. Men are useless in the family plan.
