Congrats to whomever received the calls. Cant wait to read some more quality posts and learn.

although they did ask for my details and said they would, I didnt actually think theyd ring me given the timezone issues and international call cost ...

^^^^DH got it.

PokerJoe did too...

industry standard is still 3 cents a word...we not be talking quality here...and why would I spill secrets for crap pay?

...they may surprise us, but long odds on that.

a notorious loan stiff on here will2survive was taken on for payment in points ... ( insert sound of barrel scraping here )

**noober** · 01-12-11, 08:55 PM

any updates from sbr? did they give up the idea?

**chachi** · 01-13-11, 02:10 AM

see post above yours noober - they 'hired' will2survive for payment in points for the job apparently, without bothering to tell anyone who was told they would get contacted a week ago

**mighty maron** · 01-13-11, 02:16 AM

Glad to see someone got the job.

**chachi** · 01-13-11, 02:18 AM

you've obviously not read any of his 'gems' and are unaware that he couldn't pick his nose let alone anything worth betting on

if true then

**mighty maron** · 01-13-11, 08:11 AM

Their company..their choice. I think that most anyone that would get picked would have their detractors. If not that, then hurt egos would go over and get mad at the selection process.

Would I have liked to be considered? Yes but in the end its their playground and I like it.

**Slainte** · 01-13-11, 08:43 AM

No callback here as well, sent them examples of my sbr blogs and my phone but nothing. I see they hired a guy well known stiff, paid in points, it's their decision.

Payment in points? It's a joke!

**Bill Dozer** · 01-13-11, 06:28 PM

**mighty maron** · 01-19-11, 11:31 AM
