Quoted price.... $25/ hr.
they said it would take 2 hours. I did myself, took 25 minutes.
Are you kidding....are we that stupid?

Good for you. You have solved your own problem. However extending that job to two or three hours is back breaking work and well worth 25 bucks an hour or more. We do our own, but stop after the pain over takes it. When Advil doesn't work anymore, we will have to hire it done and will be grateful to pay someone who is not above doing it. An Elementary teacher would hurt her back from pulling weeds. I was and I have. AND nothing seems to hold the weeds back. They return again and again........
