Does this mean something completely different in the US compared to the rest of the world? How is anyone in this business being underpaid?!
- mjevans 7y agoThey're talking about the labor for moving things, and yeah, it's a "service" job so it too is owned by someone else who takes most of the profits.
- hocuspocus 7y agoGot it, that's a funny way to call movers. Relocation agents (employed or freelancing) can easily bill $1000/day over here so I was a bit confused.
- jopsen 7y agoI recall the relocation agent I was setup with when hubting apartments in SF.. She was freelancing and looking forward to Obamacare -- having not had healthcare in 15 years. I took note of that, because to me not having health insurance seemed completely unreasonable. I almost left the continent when HR tried to convince me I should trust "retroactive" insurance -- and I would get the policy after 30 days, lol.. maybe in just paranoid :)
