i heard these guys are massively looking for people in every area in the states. no experience. you can either work online or at the office.


A customer came into my work the other day and was telling me all about it and to sign up or something. Seems like some kind of Amway pseudo pyramid scheme thing.

@Cambium: Anything as long as I get paid.

I applied to a few supermarkets, grocery stores, and stores at the mall. As of now I probably applied to ~8-9 places



My dad always said there is the rule of 3s when job hunting, for every 9 places you apply, 3 will call you back, and 1 will interview and hire you.

I wouldn't suggest a supermarket or a fast food place as the work is really tiring and annoying (customers and even bosses are dumb shits at this level of job). If you can, get a job as a waiter or maybe a telemarketer/sales where if you apply yourself you can actually make more money.

There are guide/tips for waiters to make more tips, same kind of sales techniques as anything really- selling yourself to the customer is what brings in the dough (no I don't mean prostitution).
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Just participate in some medical trials. In WA, we got this place called Charles River Labs where they pay you like $1,500 for a seven day trial. You take pills to see if they have any side affects before they're released to the public (they test them on lab animals before they can test it on humans). They once offered a trial that payed $7,500 for a 21-day trial. My co-worker did it all the time when he was between jobs. I did it once, but I got booted because I had the sniffles and had an elevated white blood cell count ... but they gave me $125 just for showing up!


Haha havent you ever watched House? Don't mix trials or else you'll get fucked up.

You had a lot more experience than me when I went to find a job. I had no volunteer or work experience. You have 4 years of hospital volunteer work. That should be fine, no? You're going to have to look at very entry-level stuff, like grocery stores or a fast food place.

I don't know what I should do. Is it more effective if I walk in by a store and do the application over there, or would it not matter if I did it online? Because by walking in, it shows that you're somewhat eager to get a job since you drove to the actual place.

most regular store like clothing store wouldn't give sh*t whether or not you applied on the web, on the spot, or on the streets (since they'll all forward them to the same spots to be reviewed anyways)

that being said, summer time is a good time to look for tutoring jobs if you have any subject you are confident in... also if you are over 18 you can get paid jobs in hospitals and your experience would help you out!

they would usually make sure what kind of other trials you've been in before hand w/ a questionnaire sheet to see if anything bad might happen.

plus most ppl who do the trials r the ppl who do the other trails as well so the people who set it up know this and have already prepared for it.

but if you decide to do this and you don't feel like they know what they are doing, you can always just leave.
