Only charged like 1.6k EZ 5k job
sigh, why am I so stupid

Scrapping sure has changed since I did it, prices are at an all time low. I was foin it in Mississippi, we'd dredge the river for old telephone cable lengths, these things were about 8" diameter, and had roughly 20lbs of lead and copper per linear foot, if we could drag just 10 feet of this out of the river and manage to get that into the truck (up an embankment) we could make about 200 off it. Then we had multiple old municipal buildings from the early 20th century that were available to us, buildings that were slated for demolition, the private owner gave us permission, we must have hauled 7000 feet of cast iron pipe out of those one school building alone - we'd get about 400 per truck load. We also saved up nonferrous and took it down to Louisiana for slightly higer pay out, one such haul was $3700
Only thing was that I got 33.3% of each haul, the other 66.65 went to the truck owner, I still was mis'sipi rich! Bought a van and started making 50% hauling my own loads

I've heard there's ways to make extra money by sticking a carrot in your ass.

If I need extra dough I pick up computer related work, anything from web admin to coding in a number of languages/platforms, low voltage wiring, server/service cutovers, VoIP etc.
I could get as much work as I care to do, so I try to restrict it to business jobs (or rarely I will work for individuals if they can swallow my regular rate of $125/hour).
I could easily go back to solo work exclusively but I like knowing I have a regular check coming in, and not having to worry about marketing/invoicing etc. Therefore I keep my regular job as a Network Engineer, but I like being able to generate extra cash on the fly.
I do get a little sick of computers at times but its a living.

I do electrical work on the side or yard work if I need some extra money. My job keeps me busy enough that the last thing I want to do when I leave work is more work.
