So I have to clean my gutters...Do I do it myself, and risk breaking my neck, or hire some Day Laborers?

I have a 2-story house. About 25 feet to the top gutter, and it'll take me all day, plus I'll probably fall.
Thinking of getting about 4 or 5 day laborers over at Lowe's to do it in a few hours for a couple hundred $$.

I guess, but I don't want them here all day.
I'd like this done as fast as possible.
I have 3 tall ladders, and 2 smaller ones. pudofglp@gmail.com |

I've actually heard of day laborers suing for getting hurt.
That's so wrong on so many levels. pudofglp@gmail.com |

Cook them a nice hot lunch. Grilled cheese and tomatoes soup is fine. It won't cost you much and they will like it. |

They make money, you don't go to the hospital.
I'm looking for someone to remove a ton of oak leaves off in acre of property. Unfortunately it's hilly and rocky and slippery...my landlord is crazy. Says I have to remove the leaves atmy expense (physical opr financial)..I'm a 55 year old woman with a sprained knee- which I sprained on the rocky slope up to the house. I need freakin' cleats and a ski pole out here. |

There's always some kids in the neighborhood that work for cheap because money is more valuable to them. My one buddy climbs out on roofs to do this type of shit every day for $10 an hour under the table, getting up there with just a big ladder. |

Why do the leaves have to be removed? They are a natural part of the landscape. Is ther some local law about it? |
