Delt with many over the years at the renfest. Hire me I'm a carpenter, I want 20.00 per hour cash. I need to stay off paper because I'm a deadbeat dad from another state. Do you have transportation? No they can track us dead beats that way, but my girlfriend can bring me. Do you have tools? No but neither will you once I leave. Why are you an hour late? We wake & bake & have to watch I Love Lucy every morning. Why aint this job finished you had 3 hours even being late? Here you want to hit this shit it primo, tries passing a reefer. You need to work Saturday & Sunday because you have gotting us behind. No can do we are going work on our house & are borrowing your tools & you your lead guy is running electric for us, I'm going to take that roll of romex. Why are you late after being off the weekend? I borrowed your compressor. Now we have power I wanted to get the well working.Sadly, most of them are looking for hand-outs, not a hand up.
This was just one guy & his women who both were bringing home more then the owner.
