This job has a realistic potential to earn you $50/hr. More if you are motivated. It is based on a per foot and per item basis rattlesnake proofing yards. The right candidate will receive up to 10 jobs worth of training with me at a $20/hr rate.
You must have your own tools (listed below) and a truck. All materials will be provided to the installer with no out of pocket expenses. You must have references, be able to legally work in the United States, and be able to pass a background check. If you occasionally don’t show up for jobs and are frequently late, do not apply. The system I have developed over the last 5 years is great and therefore must be protected. You will need to sign a non-disclosure agreement and a no compete clause.
Our customers have to have a great job done, and that is what we do. An incomplete or poor-quality job can be a dangerous situation for our customers. If you are not an attention-to-detail person, then do not apply. You will be frustrated that you will be called back to the job to fix it. We do it right the first time.
It is hot work outside, and we have a 105-degree cutoff for safety. You must be willing to be trained how to find and safely remove snake, including rattlesnakes, from yards. It doesn’t happen often while on a job, but it has happened. If you are scared of snakes, this probably isn’t for you.
This is not a full time 40 hrs. per week job. You will be paid weekly as a 1099 contractor. You can work your other jobs as well. But I can potentially get you 2-3 jobs per week from March to October. Then it slows down for the winter.
