Here's one from Guru tonight. Of course, I am so well versed in these techniques that I could probably sight read a mere 8 pages...and given candles and wine, perhaps I should offer to pay him? WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE THINKING!!!??? Oh, wait, it's also a rush.

Hi,

this is a very simple and quick job for the appropriate and open minded female voice talent.

What I require is simply an audio version of a very small report about sexual techniques, running a mere 8 pages.

Spoken at the right pace, it will take you less than half hour, probably 15 mins. I need the audio to be delivered in either mp3 or wav format.

That's all there's to it. Set up your recording and just read the report I'll provide.

For further details please open a Private message.

My max project budget is around $50 for this small job.

One last thing - I'm looking for a very fast turnaround. After selecting the talent, I'd need the complete job within 24 hours.

Thanks

P.S. Please try to provide a sample when bidding.

I think this is the funniest part. Do you have a kinky sex talk demo reel? I don't.

Don't they have dolls for this kind of thing?

Not that I know anything about it.
Because I don't.

Didn't you say that at least 3 of the pages were nothing but moans, giggles, and heavy breathing?

The last time I had to give a sample like that the doctor made me turn my head and cough.

I never even saw the budget, because I stopped reading after "a mere 8 pages".

I hate it when they try to tell you how small the project is and how little time it's going to take. That's always followed by a budget that you can't read without a microscope.

Funny how they always talk about how little work it'l be when there's almost no budget. As if saying things like:

"a very small report"

"a mere 8 pages."

"it will take you less than half hour, probably 15 mins."

"That's all there's to it."

and

"just read the report"

means that there's almost no work involved.

Still, as unimportant as he'd like to make the job seem,:

"I'm looking for a very fast turnaround."

Typical.

Another phrase that means "little or no pay" is

"A perfect opportunity to build your portfolio".
