In my post of this AM about the guy that worked for me for $200 for 4 hours of work. I have to ask those that made the comments such as: "I wouldnt start up my equipment for that" and "you got a great deal" and that I got it done for a steal.
Well....Most of you guys arent from Michigan. And I guess that you are quite prosperous that you wouldnt work for $50 per hour when insurance and fuel and time are considered. Well, $50 per hour is better then nothing, right. I know of machine shops a few years ago that were working for $30/hour cause thats what the market is.....Real sad too isnt it. I know of 2 excavator businesses that are belly up....Yep, no work. Equipment was sold off and one of the guys I know bought a used septic hauler just to make a buck and hasnt done excavating work in months due to the bad economy. He has 1 FEL/backhoe machine left.....I am talking about the non farm tractor type of equipment that will bring $80 per hour. He had an excavator that digs basements, a skidsteer loader, 2 dozers, a heavy equipment trailer too. The guy that did my work yesterday is the only employee of his construction business and I dont know what his insurance rates are but he used maybe $20 in fuel and he had 30 minutes of drivetime to and from his home. Some of you fellas have it pretty good to turn down a cash job for $50 per hour.
