Does anyone else have these stupid public electric scooters in there town? There's like no regulation, and people without helmets zip by you on the street and sidewalk at 20mph with no regard to your safety or theirs. They each take CCs, When their time is up, people just leave them anywhere. After a few hours white vans pull up and take them away (they all have gps). Our streets and sidewalks are littered with these things...

They had just got them in Oakland right before i moved back down here. I hear you get double points if you nail a hipster rider. Triple if he is wearing capris and vaping.

They started in Santa Monica by me, first a company called Bird, then Hulu took over. Weird af

Though I’ve gotten used to them, it’s already been a few years. Those people who pick them up are just regular folks who get paid to collect them, charge them, and put them back in the streets. Easier if the company doesn’t have to classify them as actual employees

This is an informative clip on these scooters. My fav part is when people destroy these things, it looks so satisfying...



Btw, the first company to do this, Bird, started with 11 scooters a couple years ago. Now they're worth $2 billion :shock:

I don't post a lot of pics of my work out of respect for my clients privacy but check out what I have going on right now....over 300 individual boards, over 1000 individual edges sanded, it looks great from where I'm standing, not sure if the pics do it justice.

I hate trimming so much. Are you paying people in cash or weed?

I might trim these days for $25 an hour...but nothin less. Lol.

I can’t believe so many people are so willing to trim for weed, or for like $15 an hour.

Life is so different when you’re the one growing the weed...haha. Before I started growing, I woulda been excited to trim.

most trimmers want cash, but a few take weed and ship it home where it's worth more money.
We pay by the pound not by the hr...
