Hi, just came back from Ubering and notice there is some hits up called tej.
Should I take a shot at them? Are they worth it?

I vote yes, just so they quit clogging up HF

 

[Peachy]

how many hours do you work a week generally ubering? @SCOTTM

all this pyramid scheme talk is making me want to check up on the guy that tried to get me and a friend to join his

All this pyramid scheme talk is making me want to visit the pyramids.

I love supporting women and SAHMs, but at the same time, I think they're mostly getting taken advantage of and digging themselves a hole, so it's a blurry line. But I have several savvy friends who knew what they were getting into and they do well. Not all the companies are terrible crooks, but it'll be interesting to see if any of them have any longevity.

I once went to a small craft fair - about 12 or so tables. No less than 4 of them were women selling Lularoe. People were buying from the woman closest to the door, but no one had any interest in the other three. Depressing. If you have the skills to market yourself I imagine you can do quite well with these sorts of businesses, but the market is so saturated right now that you really have to be exceptional to stand out and really make a go of it.

On the flip side, if you put in the time you can learn some great skills that you can roll into other areas as well. Just like anything else in life, you get what you put in.

What's with all the writing crap this morning. Returned two HITS because they wanted me to write on having had one cup of coffee.

And, good morning.

Can anyone else not find the website link in the Tej's?

 

[Pleco]

Watch out for that curse.

The famous pyramids curse that sentences you to work in a shitty platform for pennies on the dollar and posting as various different ridiculous personas.

Knock on wood that never happens to me, it sounds nightmarish.

Magy Seif El-Nasr I got one as well TO shows 1.5 - 2 hours. Nice 6 hr completion window on them.

Some can't be seen in mobile, send yourself the link or do that part from a pc

As long as you know pyramid scams are illegal it's okay. The only really truly pyramid scam that doesn't get challenged by the IRS is wait for it ... Social Security.

I have told my husband this many, many, MANY times, I told him... That if a PERSON did what Social Security does they would be in jail. But.... He doesn't believe me.

Good morning, everyone.

My alarm clock woke me up as I was doing a HIT in my dreams. Wouldn't you know it had writing in it, and it expired before I was able to submit it.

What is even real anymore?

The link is not showing on pc either for some reason :/

It was true when I was married to the guy but things change with IRS over time of course since congress doesn't know when to stop writing laws. But I think the SS thing stands and yeah, it is not legal for anyone else to pay commissions out of scammed funds. That was the downfall of some on Wall Street and I think still is. I could say more but this isn't the political thread. But bottom line is taxes are a burden put upon us by lawmakers to keep us under control. And that is not a conspiracy theory.
