After-school special: Outsource your chores

A Web service founded by a Hermosa Beach resident lets people outsource their chores. This has nothing to do with schools, really, except that I bet people with school-age kids are among the busiest on the planet and there's a few things we'd "outsource" if we could.

Here's an excerpt:

Tell me some of the posts on DoMyStuff.
We got a woman who posted a task saying, "Catch my husband cheating and I will pay you per photo." We've had stranger ones than this.

Like what?
We had one guy from New York say, "Help me clean my ears." I was going to delete it, but then I saw three people bid on it. I had one post that was, "Teach me how to be girly." She grew up a tomboy and never felt comfortable in dresses.

Did anyone bid on that?
Yeah. It was just really simple stuff like how to wear makeup or what colors to wear.

Here's the link to the story.
