Michigan

Yeah, doesn't pay a lot, but the position really isn't asking for much.
Part time, 2 days a week....for a "growing landscape company" meaning small business who is finally big enough to need someone to answer the phone, mail stuff, file and be able to fill in the blanks on an spreadsheet.
For $8/hr proficient in excel and word means you can type in numbers and use spell check.
Everyone thinks they have a fast paced environment. An organized self starter means they show up and look for something to do.
Good job for someone with kids in school, who needs a few extra bucks.
