Yes I know I am starving to death but I am not going to eat that meal because it came from mcdonalds and I like burger king...lol...same mentality??? Apparently these guys arent hungry enough.

[mohammedabshaun]

@shalpo exactly only a few people are getting what I am saying.

[Greatersend]

Get people who are willing to get the work done. You're generalizing asking a few folks and they turn it down. Simply, you asked the wrong people. Again, ask people who are willing to get the job done. If asking the illegals will help get your job done then so be it. Not all people living in America is lazy or unqualified.

@Greatersend i asked 10 people,lol

[kryogenikz]

AMEN!!!!

[Greatersend]

@jchahine I agree, but few are willing to take the opportunity.

[jchahine]

How come everyone keeps telling Abdul to just do it himself? If you are not into that kind of thing, it's a major pain and ends up costing more to buy the right tools, etc, just for one job. Plus he'd rather leverage his time doing what he does best (and earn 3x more than he'd save). He talked about that a few months ago in another video.

[jchahine]

@Greatersend The point is, if the construction sector is in a slump with so many hurting, why don't the unemployed guys take small jobs and estimate it fairly? Or take a low rate and see it as an opportunity to open other doors? After all, they are unemployed... a lot of "office work" people do internships for free or low pay.

[jchahine]

@mohammedabshaun yeah I went thru a well-established contracting website (to put up a fence) and some of the contractors made an appt with me for estimate and didn't show up. tHEN make a 2nd appt and no-show again.

Also I would call companies directly, leave a voice mail and not get a call back! THEY JUST DON'T WANT IT BAD ENUFF to get their sh*t together and monitor their voice mail.

[quicktripgas]

They might think its not worth it for that amount of money. People want big money for big work. They don't want to waste their time with little jobs here and there. You can't fault them for that. I'm the same way. I only accept contracts for really challenging jobs that will be rewarding. That's just the way some people are.

if you Talked to say a Contractor that is the Bizness owner and his Bizness is Slow ,he has probably laid off the ones he would have paid $15's a hr to do your job and he himself might have been more of a Bizness Runner / Owner with the Contractor Lic: but With no or little Dirty Hand Knowledge to do your task , a lot of contractors have the Bizness End and Hire the Workers to make them rich but are Dumbasses in the field not everybody but some and many run that way.

[ForceOfWizardry]

I bet if you offered $500-$1000 for the job you wouldn't have a problem!

@mohammedabshaun

Yea' man Just drive down to HomeDepot and let a 50 dollar bill stick out your shirt pocket and get somebody to fix your floor dude. thats would do in a pinch :/

[mindstate30]

@mohammedabshaun

that's awesome. You should be able to get it done then. BTW, I hope your leg feels better..that is a horrible, painful looking burn.
