$15-20 would cut it around here depending on the skill required.

You'll also supply food, water, maybe a beer at the end of the day, access to lavatories.

Had a local woman post on our community FB page looking for some leaf raking.

She was paying $100.00 and was estimating it was 10 hours work.

I have one of the larger plots and unless my yard was 6 feet deep in leaves it would not take 10 hours.

The average yard around here at that time of year was maybe a half hour, an hour would be generous.

So I asked if she was paying $100.00 flat regardless of how long it took or was she saying she'd pay $10 per hour and she thinks it will be 10 hours.

No reply.

I think she was just looking to scam some local teens into taking the gig.
