Mrs. Geno and I hadn't been together very long and I decided to build a patio where a mud hole had been at her back door. Got the grading/drainage worked out and then asked her and her son if they wanted to help with the carpentry part. Took at least 5 times as long as it would have - lol. She was amazed that I didn't give anyone any grief for bending nails over or nailing/screwing stuff on in the wrong place/direction/etc. My response was "you have to learn how to do it somehow, might as well be pleasant. There's nothing we can do to this project that can't be undone and sorted out".

A $150 bucks for laying hardwood floor is so dirt cheap that you likely won't keep him for a month. Before you know it he will be on his own side jobs and will be gone. I dont do much hardwood floor anymore but I charge $45 hr. for my carpenter work for the company I work for and many times I take off and charge $50 to $55 per hour .
