I get it. Americans don't like cutting grass, picking fruits and shite. There are indeed a lot of jobs out there that Americans won't touch. I am all for immigrants coming to America to make a better life for them and their families. BUT, this way is NOT the way to do it.
I think the majority of Americans who work in those types of fields are lazy, entitled and shitty workers compared to the ones who migrated here from other countries, but this way is NOT the way to do it.
Many of us are guilty of the above. I remember thinking 30 years ago having a yard service meant you had 'arrived'.
It's easy to get lulled into this sort of thing. Last year, local lawn guy decided to cut back... no longer servicing my area, and a [very good] hispanic was recommended -- and the gentleman was very thorough.
However, my front and back yards are not that large, while the price went from $60 to $80 / cutting. Instead, I purchased a new Toro rechargeable system off of Craigslist, and a couple more used batteries/ chargers off eBay.
I always need the exercise and cut now more than twice as often as the service before, Yet the tools, batteries and chargers paid for themselves by the end of last season.
So cutting back [from outsourcing ... lol] has been a win for me, and the yard looks as nice as ever.
This is just one way to fight.
