Hello,
I need help moving
Does anyone know where I can get Day Laboeres in the Baton Rouge area (preferably Siegan/Perkins area)
Home Depot?
How much do you normally pay?
Thank you!

Hire a tutor to help you with your spelling.
And then go to Home Depot on Coursey. They are all over the parking lot. Wear your Border Patrol uniform to get the best deal.

Juan will be loading up half your stuff in the back of his truck.

For about a quarter of the price Jamal will charge.

$80 a day per person.
Go later in the morning and you get the cheaper workers, the people eary in the morning with the best skills are usually gone. If one speaks English he will be the leader and will get a little bit more.

I see these jokes all of the time but I have never seen a group of Mexicans hanging out at HD looking for work and I doubt anyone making these jokes has.
The real answer is to either find some college students, put an ad or check Craigslist for ads, or call a day labor place.
Another thing I do is hire people out of halfway houses to work but you may just need to watch them a little closer. They have to pay and work to stay in the house and you can find some good cheap labor there.
I know a guy here that owns 10 halfway houses and he is constantly looking for work for the people that live in them.

are you blind or stupid?
Home Depot on Coursey. There's a live oak tree in the parking lot close to Burger King corner. I guarantee you there is at least 3 under the tree right now. I've never been to that location and not seen 3-5 hispanics waiting under that tree.

I don't live in BR so maybe it just doesn't happen here in LC? I have never seen it and I have employed tons of Mexicans over the years and being a contractor I also spend more time inside of HD than an average person.

Then you're blind.
Look closer. It's like finding a prostitute.

I'll do it for 15$ an hour as long as I'm done before the LSU baseball games start.

Call a temporary agency. The laborers will be their employees rather than yours, and the temporary agency will have accountability for their actions while helping move your stuff.

Try 2 Men and a Truck.

I was there a few months back, and rented a trailer so I could bring home my new mower. I had it hitched to the back of my truck, and was driving it around to the front of the store. On my way through the parking lot (had my window down), I heard "Amigo! Amigo!" coming from the group of them near the tree. I guess they saw my trailer and thought I needed help with something. This was late afternoon on a Sunday.

No, they're definitely there. In Mid City Nola, after they closed the Home Depot on Carrolton, next to Rouses, there were Latinos hanging out front, I'm talking months afterwards, they were still there. That blew my mind. I figured they'd have gone to an actual hardware store. But I guess there was enough renovations going on in mid city, they still found work.
Personally, I'm fine with Latino workers. I'm a construction inspector, and have seen how hard they get at it. Ask farmers in Alabama about when they passed those crazy racist laws what happened. The economy went to shite, the food rotted, and the local crackers wouldn't do the work. Americans are self-entitled, and most can't handle manual labor like Manuel can.
