I lost my job recently due to a mass layoff. I will be returning to school fulltime @ TAMU in the Fall to finish my Master's in Industrial Engineering.

In the meantime, I am doing different odd jobs to stay busy. Let me know if you are interested in having your driveway, walkway, patio etc. pressure washed. I would be happy to provide a free estimate. I live on the NW side of San Antonio (Boerne Stage Road).

Thank you.

Good idea. My ride isn't Uber compliant, 1995 and 2 door.

Lyft... You make more with Lyft than with Uber.

I wouldn't call it a hoopty. 1995 GMC Yukon 2-door 4WD. They stopped making 2-door yukons/Tahoe in 1999. I've always liked them. We normally cruise in wife's Denali, this was more of a play truck as I had a work truck.

11 years with Chesapeake Energy (oil and gas) as a Sr. Drilling Foreman aka "Company Man".

I started the Master's last fall (online), after this Spring semester, I'll have 24 hours left. We are temporarily relocating to College Station so I can knock school out fulltime on campus (on campus courses a lot cheaper due to differential tuition for Distance Learning and is more efficient than online courses).

Do you happen to do any concrete sealing as well?
Boring Username

Yes I can. Just fyi, that is usually a 2 day process. Pressure wash one day, let dry overnight and come back to seal the next day.

I am sorry, but what exactly is BS? I lost my job, I'm doing the pressure washing thing as a side gig to keep me busy and generate a little cash before the Fall semester where I'll be working on my Master's.

I've fortunately had a handful of people reach out to me through this post and they didn't seem to mind. I honestly don't think there was anything wrong with this post, I am not asking for handouts, I just let people in S.A. area know that a fellow Ag would like to help them out if they have a need/desire to get pressure washing done.
If you would like, please call me to discuss.

Tried sending you a PM but I get an error saying not valid subscriber. But below is what I said.

"In the 24 days from my initial post until you "called me out", I had posted only twice where I was directly advertising my new side gig (the initial post and the fence tweet). Other than that, any other time I posted it was in direct reply to other posters (answering questions, saying thank you, or acknowledging their inquiry). If the thread bothers you, why don't you ignore it and/or stop following it? The way you phrased me being full of crap, sounds like you think I made up the story about getting laid off. In retrospect, the only post I question of mine was the random fence one. That was a picture of my own fence and I was excited and posted all over social media and since I had landed a few jobs via this forum, I thought some might be interested that I could make their fence look new. But in my excitement, I didn't think about that potentially being spam like to others, so for that I will apologize. "

Look man you can't pm me bc it's the off-season and it's a bad use of your money to pay for premium

But you came here to offer your services which is fine but then u literally posted an ad

I get you where laid off been there done that but once you put your Twitter and stuff up you where soliciting biz which came off as a spammer

It's been done thousands of times on this board and site
