    Day Labor in Katy

    Anyone know the going rate for day laborers around Katy. I have a few projects I need some strong backs for.

      Manual labor. You can usually find Manuel at Home Depo, standing by the curb.

        Go to Pin Oak and hwy90 in Katy. There is all the day labor you need right there at that shopping center every morning and throughout the day. 100's to choose from. You don't even have to go to them, just pull up in a truck and they will come to you.

          The last time I used them it was $10 an hour. I just drove down Pin Oak and there's a dozen or so hanging out ready to work.

            LOL. We just drove through a Home Depot parking lot, to get to Chick-fil-a, and were swarmed by Manuels.

              Prop up the illegals.

              Try your church or a local church. I'm sure there are some high school aged kids looking to work.

                I went into a 7-11 once to get me a drink. Came out and had 8 in the back of my truck.

                  I remember going to Conroe as a kid with my Pawpaw to get help for the day. He'd pull up and holler "Dos" of course cinco would pile in the truck and before you know it they were in a 5 way brawl over who got the work and "dos mas" would hop in while all that was going on we'd drive off. Good times

                      This! Behind La Michoacana Meat Market. Offer $50 a day and lunch. They should be all over that.

                        Last time I tried to pick up some illegals they were greedy. Wanted no less than $12 an hour plus lunch so I just did the work myself

                          There is absolutely no way there could be that many around. The border is secure and Houston is not a sanctuary city.

                          I would talk to some neighbor kids (high school age) and get two or three of them. That is how I handled it the last time I needed some strong backs.

                          $80 each for 8 hours plus lunch OR $100 each flat rate. Whether they admit it or not, they are always looking for beer money or just that little extra. Plus no lost time for the language barrier.
