Task Rabbit- A Creative Solution for the Unemployed

For the 9% unemployed in this country and a higher percentage underemployed, a creative solution emerges, and does not rely on government or taxpayers' hard-earned income.  Task Rabbit (http://www.taskrabbit.com/) is like an eBay of jobs where the highest bidder is awarded the job. From grocery shopping for that busy professional, hanging picture frames for a disabled person or delivering cupcakes for a loved one's birthday, there is no job too small or demanding.  And the bidders come from all professional backgrounds--construction workers, advertising professionals, even lawyers inbetween jobs.
Some unemployed are making this a full-time job earning as much as $5,000 a month.
Need a job? Supplemental income? Become a rabbit!
