in my inbox today:

We’ll supply you with the written content. It will be your job to come up with your adaption and creation of a 30-45 second compelling sound track to get the caller to select that deal.

The good news about this production is that it will be a steady flow of work; the not so good news is that it’s a volume production gig that doesn’t support the same kind of pay scale as major branded radio or TV commercials. (It will pay about $10 per script but there will be hundreds to do.)




i'll happily pass this to anyone who wants it.

Hell, it doesn't even support the pay scale of shoveling driveways.

Not only is it a lot more work than the usual gig, it will pay far less and take up much more of your time, too? Wow. That's...something.

Shocked

How come I never get these great "pays less than slinging burgers at Mcdonald's" gigs? I feel like such a loser.

But I can't worry about it now as I need to get back to my 42,000 word e-learning project for which I'm being paid $200.
