Trim work? Trimming for $?

Anyone here do "seasonal" ;-) work? I have been searching the forums and have not found much discussion about the time-honored profession of trimming weed for money.

How does it work in yalls parts of the country? I mean say you have a good year and get like 40, 50, 60 pounds from your outdoor...you can't trim all that yourself, right? Or maybe you do... Maybe there are people out there that just nut up and do their own shit! Or do you pay friends to do it?

Around here we usually get paid by the pound - around $150 to $250, depending on the quality of the stuff we're working with (I can trim a pound of bomb ass dense Maui in 3-4 hours for $150, whereas an elbow of airy Kush can take twice that or longer, but nets me $200-$250). A friend of mine, who does this type of thing for a living, makes anywhere from $1,200-$3,000 a week trimming. He's made close to 20 grand in about two months, and we're still working.

I'm interested in finding out about this so if anyone has any info let me know, id really appreciate it. Thanks in advance RIU.

wish i herd of such a problem ....

I am actually looking to buy some trim, so if anyone knows anyone with some for sale in the Sacramento area, please let me know. I am a legal medical marijuana user with a card and a Dr. Cert, so it's all good. I would like to buy a pound or more, depending on price.
 
i actually went into my local dispensary and was talking with the owner at the time, the manager i guess had the day off and we were talking about some things, hes a cool guy, i had mentioned to him i just came from a job interview cause i was looking all professional, and i never do this, but i asked him if it was possible that i could get some work there, he said come by for the 420 bbq, chill out, and hit me up the monday after 420 about trimming, he said to atleast get my foot in the door, i dont know trust ppl, so maybe he was just trying to be nice and say no but make it seem like it was cool, im still gonna call but is this kinda normal?
i mean he and his whole team have known me for the last year
