A couple of guys needed to clear away garden rubbish.
« on: September 24, 2017, 14:36:06 PM »
Having spent the day cutting the garden down almost to the ground I'm now faced with a mountain of branches (mostly of the spikey variety), leaves and much detritus and the task of carting it 100 yards to the local collection point. I'd rather pay a couple of lads to do it for me so if you know of anyone who would like to earn some extra dosh for about 4 hours work then please let me know. What would be a fair rate of pay for this? - I was thinking of 100TL.

Four hours (hard) work, times two guys equals 100tl ÷ 8 per hour = 12.5tl per hour.

Even in Turkey that's a bit miserly.

Is it cotton or flax you're planning to grow once it's cleared?

Where would you like? I can put you up. How about a weekend in Clacton on Sea or Walton on the Naze. Could pick you up or drop you off!  Not too far away. Jaywick is within a not too far radius. You could become famous!  :D  ;)  ;)
