choogling Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I was just leaving my house yesterday to nip to the shops. A group of 5 lads (around 14 to 15 years of age) were passing by with a petrol strimmer, and a can of petrol. They asked if I wanted my garden strimmed (didn't say how much). I politely declined, as it didn't need doing. Afterwards, I couldn't make my mind up if it was good that a bunch of lads were trying to make a few quid doing some work (getting off their backsides and actually doing something constructive), or if it was slightly intimidating, with there being 5 of them! I can remember knocking on doors when I was a kid, with a shovel in the snow asking if people wanted their paths cleared! What do you think? private enterprise is good for kids makes them realise they can make a honest living without stealing dealing drugs etc,next time they come round just do a bit of bartering with them agree a price pay when you are satisfied with the job.give the kids a chance.

carosio Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 If an injury had happened to them on your property under your employ there is possibility that you could be sued, and everyone that's been criticising you for being mean and unaccommodating would disappear faster that you could say............Jack Robinson!

I don't think anyone said that though, they really only questioned the 'intimidation.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
