My father used to send me out with two of the neighbors' boys to shovel the whole block... For free... Because that's what sons were for...

Made decent money doing it for other neighborhoods...

ProgenyE was assigned the disabled veteran across the street and our neighbors on either side.

That and pushing a lawn mower, I'd shoot Missile Toe out of trees with a pellet gun around Christmas and sell it door to door that was always some extra change.

I'm 80 and still doing it, and before anyone else, with their gas driven snow blowers. And mine is cleaner when done. Just get off of your dead asses. Right C D and AuntE

Yep... Everytime there's a snowfall here I get together with a couple of neighbors and we shovel the walkways and part of the road where there's a dip... We have people who are supposed to do it, but they often wait til it stops snowing (might take three days ) and we have a lot of elderly folk who like to walk in the park... Pus it's ridiculous trying to get a car up that dip when it's iced over....

Chinese wouldn't dare force their precious little emporers out in the cold to lend a hand... But the older generation is still decent about this sort of thing

Snowblowers usually do a pisspoor job.. In my opinion
