Home Depot Parking Lot Laborers

I need some unskilled labor to take out some old bushes. Anybody ever used guys from the Home Depot parking lot? I want a good deal, but I don't want any non-consensual lovin', even if it is tender and unselfish.

Where are you located. I might can get the same "type" of worker but they won't be in a HD lot.

Fair question. No, but it's about 20 mature bushes. It would take me a few months to get it done.

there usually is one in the group that speaks decent English and can translate...be sure they understand exactly what you want them to do and what you are planning to pay...
don't expect to get by paying them $5 each for the day or any kind of bullshite like that...they won't make top dollar compared to Americans, but they don't work for pennies either...
treat them respectfully and buy them lunch (pizza or sammiches) and provide drinks....
I have had no issues, but keep your garage door closed and just be generally sensible while they are there....

Treat em good and they will work faster than humanly possible.
Make sure you settle on a price in the parking lot.....I once had a pair I nearly had to run off because they were telling me they wanted $250 for a couple hrs work.

Would the opposite of mature bushes be immature bushes?

I would be hesitant bringing them to your home. If you do decide to hire them, make sure you agree to a price beforehand. Make sure they specifically know what you want done. Don't try and undercut them. Many of those guys bust serious arse, so pay them a fair wage and they will work hard.

You're an idiot. They are assuredly going to want to be paid upfront if you're going to give them a lump sum. What leverage do you have if they decide not to finish the job?

You are the idiot, you don't have to pay them up front

Yeah he is pretty much a douche. I figured most had seen that because I think I got it from the OT circa 2007 or so.
He has a few more dick videos as well.

Have some jump in your truck bed and tell them you want them to rip all the plants out of your beds so you can start over from scratch. Give them a cooler full of drinks and tell them you're going to Home Depot for some lawn bags.
Never go back because the house belongs to the guy on the HOA who has been giving you grief about the color of your fence stain.
