a question about compensation for a job (1 Viewer)

Seriously, if you do this, drop your art in some/all mailboxes with the flyers and a way to reach you for additional artwork. The first 100 quality prints are on me.

Now, I'm also high but I kinda want you to wear a GoPro cam to ensure that my investment paid off. So there's that too.
Really :goodposting:
Ill do this in the future when I have a finished peice but someone has to get me the GoPro

I cant afford that thing.
We can figure something out.

You can have it back when im done. I have nobuse for it.

 
Check to make sure it isn't illegal.

$.15 - $.17 per flyer. Or better yet, work on commission. $10 if they call. $100 if it results in a deal. Or maybe $.10 per flyer plus commission.

These guys are cheapskates so I cant trust them to be honest with the commision.Otherwise id be willing to do that.

How can it be illegal to put flyers on peoples doors? It happens everywhere

I think its not legal to put anything in the mailbox if you arent a postal worker.

Are they different colors, taste delicious, and have an "m" on them?
Geez binky. I think you need to hire someone to write your material because you are stinking it up like a dead raccoon on the subway in here
As you said, the pills aren't working.
Apparently not for anyone

 
You're not going to do 20 miles in 5 hours chief. I don't care how fast you walk, you are still stopping to place flyers.
15-20. Most peoples railings have a space to slip a rolled up flyer in to so I dont think I will have to climb up many steps or walk up to many doors but I could be wrong.I walk faster than most. Nobody has ever past me in the street when I walk at my normal pace so I probably walk 5 mph on average
:lmao:
I meant "walked past"#### happens when you are typing fast
I wasn't laughing at the typo.
Its true though, npbody has ever passed me.

An old friend used to call me doctor detroit because I walk fast with my hands in my pockets.

People are often surprised how quickly I get around
You actually remind me of our own Doctor Detroit quite a bit.

ok - you got me. You are ####### exhausting.

Serious question - you aren't really this ####ed up are you? I mean, this is like one of many aliai and you really are just ####ed in another troll-like manner ...right?

Come clean. It might start your healing.

Define ####ed up?I am far from the most.

And no, I have never pretended to be anyone other than myself on here. Im always honest and if im a troll just because the truth of my life riles people up then consider me a troll.......but not because I had to lie to do it.

Say whatever you want about me but im not afraid to be myself unlike many. Im not afraid of any of the crap I get.

How exactly have you helped Binky? This thread is the first time you had a conversation with me instead of just slinging insults.

People who dont have mental illness, or arent aware of it, generally seem to think people who do are much worse than they really are.

So if I really was as ill as some here seem to think then what can be gained by attacking someone so sick? Did you guys pick on the kids in the special class when you were in grade school?

There is a big difference between mental illness and being truly crazy or insane. People suffer from all sorts of issues but are still aware of their actions and surroundings. They are not all that different from you except their bad feelings last much longer and they dont have the coping skills either because of genetics, upbringing or injury.

How ####ed up am I? Suffering from anxiety and depression but I am cognizant and rational. Never a danger to anyone other than myself.

Is that all rare enough to be considered ####ed up or perhaps just a prevalent representation of the human condition? Are we not all ####ed up in some way?

If any of us on here were truly 100% ok I would think we would be too busy making billions of dollars and leading posh lifestyles to have any time to post on a message board. We are all just regular folk who have limitations which is why we did not rise to the elite of society.

But if any of us truly perfect but didnt rise to the top due to circumstance......then isnt that the pot calling the kettle black?

But what do I know. Im just a liar after all.

 
Are they paying you under the table or are you paying taxes? If no taxes, take the $9/hour from both of them. Schedule it so you deliver both at the same time. $18/hour seems like a hell of a lot for simply walking.
Its all straight up cash money homey.

Of course ill do them both but its not like im getting paid twice to do one job. Im doing a job for each simultaneously. Its not just walking. I have to carry two loads of flyers, reach in the bag twice and sometimes walk up stairs if there is no place to put the flyers on the gate

Its two jobs. Does a hooker only charge you single prices if its you and your friend?
Interesting choice of analogy.

Ill basically be whoring myself out

 
I think this weekend you should make a trial run. Grab a couple reams of paper down at the Office Depot and walk around littering people's gates and doorways. See how much ground you cover and how many flyers you deliver in 5 hours. Report back here. :thumbup:

 
So, you're going to be the guy who litters the foyer of my apartment building (the foyer because no one will buzz you in) with menus and flyers that no one wants.

And you are going to disrespectfully cross everyone's lawn instead of walking on the sidewalks and pathways, and you're going to be too lazy to attach the flyers to the doorknob with a rubber band, and instead will wedge them in between the door so that when the door opens the flyer will drop to the floor, and the person will have to bend over and retrieve something they didn't want in the first place.

Welcome to the neighborhood!

Easily a $15 per hour job. Oh wait, you have to reach into the bag twice? That makes all the difference. Maybe $25 is fair.

 
Jesus, you can even find an excuse not to walk.
Im not looking for an excuse not to walk, im trying to figure out a fair price.15-20 miles in a row is a lot so dont pretend it isnt
YOU'RE WALKING AND PUTTING FLYERS ON DOORS. Minimum wage.
If they just hired some teenager off the street they wont do the right thing and will slack off. Its worth more than minimum wage to have me do it with assurance that every inch of the specified area will be covered.

A couple hundred bucks each isnt a lot for exposure to a few thousand potential customers.
Why would they trust you? Even if you say you will do what you are going to do, logic will dictate that they ponder why a 30 year old man is making himself available for a job such as this. The only real reason is because somewhere along the way you made some bad decisions. So now that they have established that you are a person who has a history of poor decision making, why would they think you are going to do things the right way?

Demand $60 or don't take it.

I have no history of poor decision making, and ive known both these guys a long time and I have done side work for them before and I always bust my hump. My unemployment has nothing to do with me being a bad worker, it has to do with my mental issues.

Every person In Psychitric treatment for 2/3 of their life is due to poor decisions?

 
You just walk? Do you get free water because you'll probably go through $50 worth.
No not just walk. Also carrying a shoulder bag full of flyers and putting one on a door the entire time, so also climbing a flight of stairs every few houses.No free water
$82 and a handy from the owner's wife
That would be a handy from my aunt
$92 then
$10 for the local crack prostitute.

I wont walk on peoples lawns.

 
Have you negotiated benefits? Does this flier job offer a 401k match? How is the insurance?

In all seriousness, someone going door to door passing out fliers, should try to negotiate $12-$15 an hour during the summer heat and settle for $10-$12.

ETA: I assume it is off the books, so at these wages $10 an hour would equate to like $12 or $12.50 if it was a real job.

Your personal health is always your responsibility. If you have a doc who can't find something that works, then change doctors. Blindly trusting a doctor can result in pain, suffering, injury, or even death. I know two people who would be dead if didn't take charge of their health. They trend their medication and symptoms, and stay up to date on the latest research. They both went through many physicians until they found an intelligent partner with deep understanding of their conditions. Have you researched other potential medications/therapies, sought out physician specialists, subscribed to any journals?

Thats precisely the amount I think is fair to charge each

There is only one otjer psychiatrist in my insurance network and they are on the other side of the city otherwise I would have switched long ago. Im expecting when I have a job with better insurance I will have more options.

I do research from time to time, especially about different medications we talk about. No journals but I read a lot of articles and message boards relating to mental illness

Please escalate discussions with your doctor and get additional help. I am sorry for any derogatory comments I may have made - best to you. Godspeed.

Of course its creepy, im a very angry person. People have been telling me im creepy for 15 years.

Thats a pretty big stretch to think someone needs additional counseling from a hasty photograph.

If I had set up some lighting, props and posed I would completely agree with you.
