flippers/common sense

I am property owner/fixer-upper.
I get tired of watching flipping shows on TV with investors who hire such ignorant people to manage/intern their properties. They are either fresh out of college and never held as much as a hammer in their hand, or they have a wife breathing down there neck, but who won't pick up a paintbrush herself. I just don't get it.

How do these people get these jobs???? I know it's TV, but I've worked enough jobs to know that "real" business does work this way. We've all had incompetent managers, etc.

For all you investors/flippers out there....I am a 46 yr old female, who NEEDS a job. I am an experienced painter, fixer-upper, with enough common sense to manage any property flip/rehab you have. I will cut out the nonsense and get the job done. I live in Midwest, but will relocate.
