>REEEEEE WHY WONT YOUR BOY SHOVEL!
>Charge up front 3 times more.
>REEEEEEEE YOU CANT DO THAT TO ME!

A nice shiney nickle dont buy jack shit.

shoveling snow is a fucking back sore

if you aren't making at least $9 an hour for any kind of job, it isn't really worth it in my opinion.

9 an hour can't even pay rent, hell 16 an hour barely pays rent.

When the Wii came out that's when I started playing games less.

My roommates pay me to do it, little to they know I'd do it for free since it's such a nice workout and I love the cold.
Fuck actually going around to other people's houses though, I did that when I was like 14 and it sucked ass.

They're children. They don't have to pay rent.
Kids only did these jobs to get money for candy or to save up and buy a playstation or an xbox or a nintendo.
Of course, now parents are overprotective and won't let their kids out, especially in freezing weather so they can shovel snow around a neighborhood where no one knows each other because these days neighbors just don't interact anymore.
It's not the kids' fault, it's society's.

>boomers too lazy to clean their own driveway

fucking boomers

>what happened to all of the cheap child labor I used to employ to do thankless, exhausting work?

sounds like you grew up in a trashy town. i never got less than 10 bucks for shoveling a driveway. one time i got 100.

>shoveling snow
>ambitious

Imagine doing this shit for $5 an hour when you could just fuck around in it with friends or stay at home and play games with them lmao

fucking this

I have never experienced a snow day

how are you going to afford games if you have no money? oh that's right, you were a spoiled little bitch, and you didn't have to work a day in your life until you got out of the college that your parents paid for.

Maybe they shouldn't be lazy and shovel their own drives.

It's not like it was different "back then".
Kids shovel, kids get paid, kids save up enough for a console, kids aren't seen again.
Shovel your own damn driveways.

>mfw its snowing in the uk right now
>we use salt to clear roads and fucking wait til it melts for the rest
I thought global warming made it snow less also, make your mind up.

There's an amazing invention called snow blowers that makes this all pointless.

Fun fact, if the temperature is below 0 degrees Fahrenheit then salt will not melt snow. Not that you would know what Fahrenheit is, but it's why it exists.

>spend several hundred bucks on a machine that will sit in storage for 350 days a year
no thanks.

It’s a good investment for the one day you really need it

Shit like this is what people buy when they get older. You'll understand when you've got money and your body hurts from simply existing. Several hundred dollars is worth the price if it prevents you from feeling like shit for those 15 days a year.

>We want kids to shovel our walkways
>lets be smartassess and belittle their entertainment

that'll get them to work for you. seriously just do your own sidewalk you geezers.

Me neither actually, and I'm a fucking Leaf with -20 to -30 winters. We've been robbed.

Keep care of it and you buy it once for your whole lifetime
You probably even make up the money in less money spent on food to recoup the calories lost from shoveling the white cancer

If you're fit it sounds like decent excercise as long as you have comfy clothes.

-18 degrees Celsius, but you knew that.

you assume "salt" is sodium chloride not road salt and that im an idiot. you assume wrong.

You are an idiot. What the salt is comprised of does not change the process. At 0 degrees Fahrenheit NO kind of salt will melt ice.

Adult Mexicans do this exclusively now.

I think canada is using beet juice instead of "salt" since it wouldn't wreck roads and vehicle.
