Are these jumps safe? I see no PPE is required.

 

Have you tried job creation strategies? The government is all for it!

 

Find some local vagrants. Offer them R50ea for a morning, and promote yourself to "Site Manager".

Just remember the following when building jumps:

• Make sure you're not building on an ancient vagrant burial ground. They don't like that
  
• Don't let your labour force unionize. You'll end up with strike after strike.
  
• Institute Friday-Pieday (buy your staff each a pie on fridays. They like this. Not mutton curry though unless you want them to use up their sick leave).
  
• Lift with your knees, not with your back
  
• Unless you have a wicked "monkey-line" wear gloves or the spade is gonna bite you
  
• Drink alcohol before test piloting a jump. Not only will it give you courage, but you'll be more relaxed when you hit the ground (less bruising)
  
• Don't make the gaps in your jumps look like hobo-out-houses. We made that mistake once.
  
• Don't look directly at the sun.

Never do this. You will crash, your office will be robbed and you will order chainrings that don't fit your cranks. It's the start of a long period of bad luck.

True story! You need some strong muti to overcome the effects of disgracing vagrant ancestors.

You should have mentioned there was a boy's high school nearby. That's the obvious solution to your labour conundrum.

 

Buy a big bag of sweets, and lure them over. I'm surprised you didn't think of that.

 

Mind you, if it's an all boys school, simply play Ricky Martin on a boombox near your jumps and they'll flock to you, pied-piper of potch
