*snort* because my oil filter is wedged into a tiny space smack dab in the middle of my car's deeper-than-it-is-wide engine compartment.
you have to put my car up on a hydrolic jack to access the *fuel filter*, and you practically have to remove the battery to relplace any of the bulbs in one of the headlamps. you need tools to replace the air filter.
i used to do minor-to-moderate repair work myself, but i haven't been able to work on anything we've owned that was built after 1980.
I have paid someone in the neighborhood to rake leaves before. He was a young kid who was looking to earn money to pay for a school trip.
And though I'm not the person you posted to, I do have kids. They are young and not capable of raking and bagging leaves. And I felt that I was helping a kid learn how to have a good work ethic by finding a way to pay for his trip w/o just "donating" the money to him.
Okay, now i see where i have a total opposite view, I do not find my nanny or housekeepers task's to be menial or mundane. these women are a huge part of our lives, they are my firends. They are both professional's and they both make a very good living doing what they do.
Cleaning homes or commercial, offices, construction ect is a lucrative buisness expecially if you are good at it.
I know degreed couples who own cleaning comapny and are doing very very well. I do not look down upon what they do to make a living, I admire them, I hire them becasue they are better at it then Iam.
When I was in my early tweny's I took a semester off from school. I cleaned houses with a aunt who is now a has a cleaning company. I mde 20 dollars a hour. That is proiductive work it is not menial or mundane. imo.

How does that answer my question?

Go down to your old neighbor's house and ask if you can fold his laundry?
Would you like that feeling?
