Re: \"Make a million $$ in a few minutes of work each day\"...good idea???
 

Assani,

You should explore more thoroughly the consequences of showing up drunk for work. Would it not be a breach of contract? Even if you think the odds of your employers noticing that you are drunk on any given day are quite low, you are talking about doing this every day for 20 years, so the odds of being discovered eventually are astronomically high. It would be a shame to get caught 5 years in and lose your money for violating your contract.

Re: \"Make a million $$ in a few minutes of work each day\"...good idea???
 

I recommend taking the position if its demands will prevent you from creating onslaughts.

It's easy to say that now, but after being so cavalier about this prohibition initially, how can you be confident you will not lose your resolve after a year or so of hauling oats every day? I suggest you take a long look at yourself in the mirror before signing anything.

[/ QUOTE ]Where on earth do I troll in other threads? Thats completely untrue. I saw that you said once that I was trolling in the myspace thread, but I really wasn't at all- I was just going to read through it all and respond as I went along. But I soon realized how old the issues I was responding to were, so I stopped doing that and just asked someone to help me catch up. I am anything but a troll....I think I contribute very positively to many of the forums here. Most recently I have been posting in the sports events forums. Go read some of the threads I've started there. But I also contribute to many of the poker forums as well.

I really couldn't care less if you want to post in my threads. I don't even mind people occassionally making jokes even at my expense if its all in good fun. But your insistance that I get banned I must take seriously since I have no desire to be banned, nor have I done anything that should get me banned.

emigrant direct pays 5.15% currently and will be going up with interest rates

that's 51.5k/year for this 20 minute job

i'd do it and take the 1mil and immediately invest it at 5.15% and then if i decide to quit at any point, i can just withdraw and the interest is my pay

it's $141/day in interest, so that's why i'll get paid for this 20 minute/day job until i get tired of it or miss a day

Fwiw the 5.15% is not garaunteed over any period longer than 3 months (I think).

Re: \"Make a million $$ in a few minutes of work each day\"...good idea???
 

I guess I'm a bit surprised that more people didn't have something to say about this. I kinda figured a lot of people would have had experience in this line of work, but I suppose I'll offer my perspective.

Was looking for a job in the paper back in the mid 90's when I got laid off, saw a wanted ad for a job that was easy money and short hours, and well, long story short, I've been running boiling oats around in New City for about 9 years.

I'll tell you this. The first couple of months are pretty brutal. Until you figure out how to get a solid grip on the boiling oat bucket, you're going to burn yourself, a lot. And they don't tell you this up front, but you can't wear any protective gear on your hands or arms either. And whoever suggested that wagon thing, yeah, you'd think that would be a good idea, but this guy Bruce tried that one and the supervisors tasered him in the balls. No joke. They try to tell you the supervisors will cut you some slack, but that's just a bait and switch. If you slow down because you burned yourself, or you step more than 2 feet off the line, you're not going home without at least 2 or 3 lashes. And one day, well, I got a pretty bad cramp and slowed down for a few steps. Let's just say, having one of the supervisors knock you down from behind onto a hot bucket of boiling oats is not so great for your skin.

And forget about ever showing up drunk or wearing socks. My buddy Joey did that once. Great guy, he'd put in over 19 years of stellar boiling oat running and was one of the top points-leaders for making supervisor. His dog died one night and he went out and got wasted. He showed up pretty drunk around 4:30, and the supervisors caught on pretty quick. He couldn't keep up with me that day on the oat run, and all I know is that I heard a loud crashing sound from behind me after about half a mile. His funeral was a few days later. I still miss him.

But look, there's a lot of positives. I mean, I'm done working for the day almost every day by 4:45 AM, which leaves me time to go to the doctors for my daily skin grafts and physical therapy from all the third degree burns. And you can definitely play poker afterwards, like Assani suggested, but you'll probably need to get some voice recognition software since your hands might not work so good.

But hey, it's a great job. I'm always looking to get some more people recruited too, so I can make supervisor in 12 years.

Best of luck, Assani. Hope to see you out on the oat run soon!

Re: \"Make a million $$ in a few minutes of work each day\"...good idea?
 

right; it'll go up and down; fine

if it ever dips below what i think the daily amount is worth, then i'll just quit and take the interest


also, since i'm gonna keep my day job, i'm actually gonna make a LOT more than that, since i'll be compounding the interest by not making any withdrawals

So you're going to trust this Assani guy who never carried an oat in his life and is obsessed with Onslaughts over a guy who has been running steaming oats around for nearly a decade? Whatever, you do what you want. Jesus, man, has every single job you've ever had been exactly what they described to you while you were interviewing?

Of course they tell all the new people they'll get fired for slowing down, otherwise they'd never bust ass the entire way. And if they catch you slacking, they'll make sure you know it. But, honestly, if they fired everyone who slowed down for a few steps when they bumped their forearms on the bucket, they'd have nobody to carry the oats!

Re: \"Make a million $$ in a few minutes of work each day\"...good idea?
 

dude, quit trying to write off stupid posts as being serious.

Ill answer anyway cuz I think its kind of an interesting HYPOTHETICAL situation.

I wouldnt do it. 50K a year to live in a crappy [censored] hole city to do something thats going to take much longer than a few minutes (30 pounds is heavy, when you have to be careful of how you are carrying it and a mile is a long way) every single day come hell or high water. And if I cant do it I owe money. No way in hell. Now if they moved it to a real city, then maybe. But I still wouldnt because my freedom to travel and come and go as I please is worth more than $50K/year to me, but I could see how it would appeal to people in that case.

edit: oops, missed that they give you the mil upfront. I dont know dick about investing but if I could make a ton of money off a mill in a couple years, then maybe id do this and then break contract. I definitely wouldnt start now tho, I dont wanna waste some of the prime years of my life doing this, but if I were 40 or something, then maybe.

Also is New City, NY an uber shithole? Because Yuma, AZ is one of the last places in the country id ever want to live.

By the way, its fairly obvious that the post is not serious. Why would anyone pay you $ to do this in some specific way?
