[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Damn I want someone three days a week to cook and clean for $250 too!

Why would someone want to be your maid when they could walk dogs or drive for Amazon? [/quote]

9 hours of work for $250. That’s better than Amazon and dog sitting. It’s just not worth a commute, so they need to be close by. [/quote]

I guess "better than" is subjective.   Even if $250 for 9 hours is a higher hourly rate, $250/week is not enough to live on.   Amazon would give them more hours, so more money total.   The type of position OP wants to hire for would require the employee to cobble together a half dozen employers on various days and hours.  Traveling between each would be time consuming, cost gas, depending on the area could be difficult to find parking, etc.   So much easier to drive to an Amazon warehouse, park, and work your full shift.

In the original post, OP didn't even want to pay $250 for 9 hours work;  she wanted to pay $20-25/hr which would be $180-225.[/quote]

OP never suggested this would be someone’s full time job. It’s a gig economy.  I run my own business that allows me to flex most of my week. I’d happily take on a little job like this for an extra $1,000 a month if I lived near her. In fact, I’m tempted to offer to come one day a week for 8 hours instead. I could prepare four meals for the week, clean up after myself, and do a light cleaning over the high traffic areas of the house.

I’m not trained chef or maid, and OP doesn’t even seem to be asking for that.  She needs an adult with life skills and free time.  I have free time and tuition bills to pay.

OP, if you think one day a week would work for you, drop your email and we’ll connect. [/quote]
