Get Paid To Surf The Internet!
No, this aint spam.
You know those email ads you get all the time. In between the messages about the big black cocks and the tight pussies and the viagra. They read something like:
Get paid to surf the internet! Click here to find out more...
And if you can ever be bothered to follow the link there is some hyped crap about an online casino, or some complex ad-clicking scheme which involves referring as many people as possible, with a guaranteed 0.0000013 cents per referral!
Well, folks, I have found it. The true "get paid to surf the internet" gig. And I'm writing this blog while I'm doing it.
Tonight I was supposed to be substituting for a teacher who is away on holiday. The lessons they teach are over the phone - students who don't have time to attend face-to-face classes ring up and the lesson is a role-play conducted over the telephone. The student reads their part, teacher reads theirs. Teacher provides feedback on pronunciation, intonation and other tips. Says goodbye, good luck with the study, and hangs up.
Well that's what supposed to happen. But the phone hasn't rung yet. I've been here for 2 and a half hours and not a single call. The clock is ticking. And I'm getting paid for every second.
Let's see, I've checked my mail. I've updated my blog. I've read all the newspapers online. Now, what else can I do. Oh yes, it's my birthday coming up. Better update my amazon wish list!
