Pays $450 a day plus $100 for the hoel room. 12 hours a day 7 days a week in the office, but he said it is easy if anyone needs a YOB. It wont last loong, but it is something right now. I ain't going, but I can forward the info/

My step dad put his boat up for sale on craigslist. I didn't help him with the ad. the boat has a speedmaster #3 and stellings exhaust. He is selling because we just haven't used it since my back surgery, and now I have a family boat for the kids.

my sales guy just quit and that is exactly where he went. Talked to him today. He is on the phone from 8:00-6:00 everyday with very little time to get his ppaperwork done in between calls. Crappy work but $450/day to sit on your arse on the phone ain't bad.

These guys I am talking to don't have to do any paperwork, they are just manning a call center from 8-8 every day.

THey have the better of the jobs. The key when you are working day rate is to have as little responsibility as possible since it all pays the same.

You should here some of the claims that are coming in.

Guy in PA, said that he needed BP to pay for him to see a shrink because the thought of the oil in the gulf was botherng him.

Lady in LA said that she used to fish off the dock behind her house and that she sold the fish for $1000 a week, wants BP to give her $1000 a week.

I am coming up with my own list of claims right now so that I can call them in.

That's 13,500.00 a month +- and since this company is re imbursing your hotel, you are getting to keep most of it after Obama takes his piece.

The other good thing is that since this is starting after the middle of the year, you won't earn enough to bump you into the next tax bracket.

That 450 is only 70% of the bill that is getting submitted on his head every day as well.

I think the full bill is around $611 +-

Multiply that number times the 1000 people that are all ready in those staffing centers and climbing.

That staffing firm is generating over 600K each and every day that this is going on. They say some of those centers will be there for over a year.


219 mil in gross revenue generated for each 1000 people on a years timetable.
