Pros

1. Most of the people working there were nice. @. Can't think of anything else.

Cons

1. Ridiculous schedules. Some days they wanted you to do 28 lawns and gave you 15 minutes to do a lawn and get to the next stop. 2. Dragging hundreds of feet of hose up hills around lawn furniture and pools and whatever else happened to be there. 3. Total grunt work using broken equipment and outdated trucks. 4. Came home covered in herbicides and whatever. 5 Seriously, this was the worst job of my life. I lasted 4 weeks and halfway thru the last day I drove the truck back and handed the manager the keys and told him I quit. 6. Almost forgot, my feet were bloody and blistered every day.
