you know what really pisses me off. just a little while ago i received an sms on freelance jobs. this particular job wanted girls who WERE AT LEAST 5’5 in height. which is like quite demanding in this line and in malaysia considering that most malaysian girls are of an average height of 5’3.
so okay nevermind. AND THEN they had to put in brackets “WHO CAN ROLLERBLADE” wah this one u read very demanding already because seriously not a lot of girls can rollerblade these days. so i was thinking not bad not bad this job shuld b quite well paid.
then better still. 8 FRIGGIN HOURS. the working hours were 8 FRIGGIN HOURS. it wouldnt be so bad if it was just a normal flyers job BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. you have to be at least 5’5 and you must do this whole mumbo jumbo thing in ROLLERBLADES IN LOW YAT. where it’s so friggin crowded on weekends and yet you have to go around rollerblading and handing out flyers for 8 FRIGGIN HOURS. okay. so maybe you have 2 breaks. each abt 45 minutes to 1 hour max. STILL. you would have 6 HOURS LEFT TO BE IN ROLLERBLADES CARRYING A STACK OF HEAVY FLYERS and passing it to people who are most likely just going to throw them in the nearest bin.
so surely the pay has to be good right. BUT FUCK HELL. 150 bucks. like wtf wei. the pay is getting lower and lower and the agents are eating are moooreee than half the pay. where is the justice in all this. 150 may seem a lot to some of you but trust me the whole hand out flyers job isnt as easy at it looks. especially in hells and what more rollerblades? even 2-3 hours in heels just standing and giving out flyers is painful.
most of you are probably going aiyah. u go shopping wear heels few hours. yeah. you’re right but the fact is you’re moving around and the weight isnt pressured too much on your feet and ou’re actually doing something you like instead of carrying hell heavy pieces of papers that killed one too many trees that are just going to end up in the dumpster.
maybe a year back or 2 years back a job like this would pay abt 3-400 bucks. NO JOKE. last year i handed out flyers and i got to walk up and down without having to stay in play AND IN SPORT SHOES. and i got paid 180. so you tell me. how bad everything is getting. i really can’t help but wonder why do some girls who i SWEAR ARE SOOOOO good looking they can seriously be models actually accept such low paying jobs. during certain circumstances that 150 pay would be acceptable but not when there’s a friggin height requirement and a friggin rollerblade requirement where you have to work more than 5 friggin hours.
that’s probabaly why im so broke now cuz i’ve been really picky with my jobs lately but seriously. if less girls actually accepted these low paying jobs the pay would definitely slowly but surely improve. sigh. why oh why. and even more teruk. now adays a lot of 10am-10pm jobs where the pay is only abt 70-80 bucks “=_= seriously wei. dont la.
aiyoh. i was really pissed off and wanted to like blog about this whole issue properly but the heat in my room is killing me. pfft.
