    If by shovel you mean push a snowblower or ride an atv with a plow, I'm in.

    Can we drink while we shovel?

    If the answer is YES I can probably convince a few members to do it

    What the hell? Why because it's too hard to shovel or because the tool was too complicated to run/figure out? (shovel)


    When i was young my moms husband, at the time, plowed driveways in the Broadmoor, Colorado Spring, and I made great coin just shoveling for tips.

    I'll do it for $40/hr. But I only use gold plated shovels. And you need to provide coffee at the start and hot cocoa between each job. And I need life insurance. But it will be the best damn shoveling you ever seen - for the 15 minutes that I intend to work (I have a 4 hr billing minimum BTW). Just remember I am owed something and it all makes sense.

    When I was in grade school I couldn't even find a job shoveling an entire sidewalk & driveway for $0.50!!! This was also up in Northern MN!!!!

    Of course my attempts at entrepreneurship quickly faded as my dad "volunteered" my services for 3 neighbors with shoveling & mowing.

    I shoveled my own drive for free! Good workout but my back is only good for a couple hours. I can work two hours for ya, and then file workers comp.

    I'm aware of one company, billing $50/person, $170/plow truck. That's $220 per operating plow/hr rate.
