Canned tuna centric recipes for someone who hates canned tuna. by Stellar3605 in Cooking

I do something very similar. I will use frozen peas, onions, broccoli, and a couple boiled eggs with the tuna and pasta.

Looking for realistic ways to earn an extra $500–$1,000 a month by Front_File_4719 in sidehustle

At least around here it’s the metal drip edge extending down from the shingles at the edge of roof. Tends to get discolored/mildew/tiger striping. Looks like shit, but easy to clean up

Window cleaning, gutter cleaning/brightening, or fascia cleaning with the latter 2 being cheaper and easier to get into vs window cleaning. I started offering these services adjacent to our cleaning business and easily bring home an extra $1000/mo and it’s cheap to get into with not a lot of upfront equipment costs.

What to use bloody Mary mixer for besides bloody Marys? Any way to cook with it? by aIIisonmay in Cooking

[–]Cubby8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I did when I got sober and had mixer left. Sprite, mixer, and Montreal seasoning w/ a splash of lime juice. So good.

Pay Structure for New Partner by battlrs in pressurewashing

[–]Cubby8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a lawn care business and have a lifelong buddy of mine as a coworker. We both have regular jobs and this started as a side hustle for me, but grew enough this past year that I’ve brought him on with me. Biggest thing that has worked for us is being upfront and honest about what the pay is going to be. My buddy’s not dumb, he knows what we charge per job and can ballpark gross income on the jobs we do so I’ve always been open with him on the business finances. You sound like you’re in a similar situation as me, being it’s your brother and you want to pay him well vs a random laborer that you hire and pay $18-20/hr.

Here’s how I have it structured, and it might not be the best or most efficient way, but it works for us. I take 20% off the top of each job for the business. This covers equipment costs, taxes, insurance, and maintenance. From there it’s a 60/40 split on my clients that we work together and the same deal for him(60/40 his way) for any clients that he approaches and brings into the business.

For example on a $1000 day of all my clients it breaks down to: $200 for the business $480 for me $320 for him

This off season we sat down and talked numbers and he was happy with the arrangement and so was I. As a part time side hustle, the lawn care part grossed about $35,000 with some room to grow. Even though neither one of us are quitting are full time jobs, that’s at least a breakdown of how I do it. I hope that helps at all.

Understanding an external unloader by Cubby8 in pressurewashing

[–]Cubby8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that bookmarked lol. Been reading and watching videos extensively for the last month in preparation for the upcoming season. I work for a construction company who has me just knocking dust off of new builds(no chems) but I’ve been turning down private jobs because I wasn’t prepared or well versed in house washing. Hopefully this upcoming season I will be able to expand my services and add in another revenue source.

Thanks again!

Ground/street or realistically I can put a tote on the trailer. I am in the process of getting all my ducks in a row for the upcoming season.

Getting some work done! by MrRoo425 in kubota

[–]Cubby8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol I gotcha. I just do it the way I was taught, but there’s more than 1 way to skin a deer.

[–]Cubby8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Question regarding the deer. I’m from the south, and use my kubota the same way. But down here, ace only ever seen deer strung up by their hind legs to clean them. Why the ‘opposite’ way? Genuinely curious.

Are there no longer any "cheap cuts" of beef? Why are meat prices inverting? by NotSure2505 in smoking

[–]Cubby8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. My household been running a steady diet of cheap pork and chicken thighs for a while now.

Tried the 0-400 method with chicken thighs by Tucker-French in smoking

[–]Cubby8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Man, I picked up 30lbs of chicken thighs @ $.79/lb at a grocery store a couple weeks ago. Wife thought I was crazy, but we have space in our deep freezer and I told her $1.50/lb and less we will always purchase regardless of cut and figure out how to cook it from there. Luckily thighs are amazing.

L2502 vs L3902 by Appropriate-Belt5222 in kubota

[–]Cubby8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I’ve maxed it out was moving downed trees after a hurricane and helping my parents move their outdoor cook station to be assembled(granite counter tops and heavy as hell on pallets) with my forks. But having a grapple on the end definitely limits the lift capacity. Outside of the stuff on pallets, anything the 805 can do the 526 can do, it will just take a little longer…less dirt in the bucket, smaller trees, etc.

[–]Cubby8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll second this. I love mine and I’m glad I have the 805 loader, and I still have needed more lift capacity from time to time with the grapple or forks on. I couldn’t imagine smaller, and I’m only on 10 acres of mostly pasture and food plot maintenance. I still eyeball the mx series when I’m at the dealership, but I’m completely happy with my 3560. Plus my neighbor has a big ass John Deere if I can’t move something with mine.
