Position Summary/Job Duties:

I'm getting ready for winter, and need a strong person to work with me, on your schedule, several times a week, for two or three hours at a time. I am about half an hour by city bus or bike west of Bascom. The work is variations on the theme of repositioning furniture, books, and boxes, and if the day is sunny and warmish, digging up hostas and raking leaves. Good exercise for an active person about sixty years younger than I am. Glad to pay a reasonable rate, say, $40 for under 3 hours work. I could also help you, if you like, with your academic writing and/or with conversational English, and I could help you learn and practice near-native French or good conversational Indonesian, either or both! As it happens I also need help setting up a WordPress website, so there is another possibility for an exchange of skills. Please reply by email, and tell me about yourself, your abilities and experience, when you might be available, and what kind of arrangements you would prefer. Thank you!!
