Would this count as work experience, technically speaking?
There's a rage face comic with the okay guy surrounded by the circular phrase, "I can't get a job because I don't have experience because I can't get a job..." etc. This is painfully true. Now, I have mowed my grandfather's lawn for the past six or seven years. He didn't "hire me" by any means, I mow his yard, he gives me a ten dollar bill. Could I list this as job experience and give my grandfather's first and last name as my employer, or would it have to be a legitimate tax paying job to count?

If that's all you have, put it down. I'd put "mowing lawns" and not mention it was for your grandfather unless they ask.
If "I can't get a job because I don't have experience because I can't get a job..." was really true, nobody would be working, would they?
