I want to know who's willing to pay $60 (twice!) for three minutes of labor. That's, what, $1200 per hour? I seriously doubt anyone's finding workers through TaskRabbit other than the sort of people who work via TaskRabbit - twenty-something rave-attending craft-beer-drinking millennials. I'm also doubtful that anyone could make their living this way outside the San Francisco city limits.When he arrives, there’s already a second Tasker there; they spend three minutes moving a table, and he gets paid $60.
