    My first "job"

    I recently lost my 9-5 job (I had it coming ) and decided to offer junk removal services. It has been slow because I'm still learning about properly advertising and I don't have a truck yet (renting u-hauls can be expensive).

    I moved an old, heavy fridge up 3 flights of stairs (basement to street level) for this guy cleaning out his late mother's home. The guy gave me $25 and I took the fridge to the scrapyard and got almost $40 for it. Almost $65 for what amounted to less than 10 minutes of actual work (plus 20 minutes or so drivetime).

    If I can just figure out how to do this multiple times per day...
