I need someone handy with construction

I have a wood loft bed that was built by a tenant before me that is getting a bit wobbly and I'd like someone to come look at it/secure it. I have no tools and no idea how to do this but its not really bad and I would imagine would take less than 30 minutes to fix once someone looks at it (I would be shocked if it took more than 10 to be honest.) You bring tools, I'll pay for supplies (there's a true value a block from my house) and I'll give you $40 to make it not feel like it's in danger of coming down every time I climb into it.

Cmon. Someone wants $40. Dooooo it. Oh and I'm not a creepster, so don't worry about me hacking you into bite-sized pieces when you get here or anything (as long as you promise the same.)

    I know a really good handyman who can come to your house and fix it, but, he won't do it for $40. i believe his base rate is $75 for any part of an hour and if he comes to your house and can really fix something in 10 minutes, he will look around for other things you need done so you aren't just paying $75 for a quick job.

    Let me know if you want his number

    Hmm. I really dont think there's anything else that I can't do myself, although I might be able to buy some shelves for him to hang since I need to do that at some point also. I'll take his number if you've got it handy :)

    I have used him a lot and so have other people in my building, he's a really good guy.

    Here's some reviews on him I found while googling:
