This popped up in my inbox today. It’s an general labor ad from the Minneapolis Craig’s List.
I have two points on this solicitation:
1. Deconstructing buildings is dangerous, you should have construction experience especially if you are required to be on roof tops.
2. Four years ago the starting wage for deconstructionists was $12.50 and that included benefits where I worked (a nonprofit).
Deconstructing old buildings
This is a very unique job and requires travel. We go all over the country deconstructing old structures and are looking for some new crew members. Our work load has doubled and that is the reason for the new hiring. It does not require a lot of construction knowledge,but must be willing to get up on roofs. Pay ranges from $10.00 – 14.00 per hour and payed out every week after the first week. Please email me with any questions you might have or to set up an interview. You can start ASAP, so contact me before positions are filled.
Compensation: $10.00 – 14.00
Principals only. Recruiters, please don’t contact this job poster.
Please do not contact job poster about other services, products or commercial interests.
