I see many ads here that I would take on in a heartbeat if I was a single guy or gal.
There was another good one a couple days ago also. And many laowais who are leaving will turn over their students to you served on a platter before they leave.
Many opportunites for young people now. Opportunity only knocks once - Gettem while their hot!
A little young for my tastes...
1250 for Sat + Sun and you get to hang out at a rich guys ranch. I wish the ad was more specific about where exactly the ranch is - 60 kms away???
Meanwhile - this school posts an ad every other day - their turnover rate must be terrible
Actually the ad should say: "Weekend babysitter needed"
I think it is a great job for a person who can get away for 2 days.
1250 x 4 = 5000/month - not bad at all - can travel every day on the weekdays while others are at work.
Sounds like the perfect job for that weird American ESL teacher who recently posted the ad where he was looking for young and cute kids to teach.
dude, working for very rich people is very exhausting. i have done that twice....couldn't recommend that.
plus looks like kevinyang is taking a huuuuuuuuuuuuge chunk out of the teachers pay. i coincidentally know what they are offering. they pay very, and i mean VERY well. so what kevinyang is offering
is terrible, it's beyond just greedy.
anyway, those guys are indeed,very nice and the ranch is for sure a good place to chill.
they want to find a really good teacher and companion for the child.
if you could cut out the middle man and get the ridiculous finders 'fee', then i would agree completely with HFCAMPO.
so the people are sweet, so call up kevinyang get an interview and get better pay.
Do tell - How much are they offering? So how much is Kevin pocketing?
It's actually not so hard to deal with those sorts of people. I used to encounter them a lot when I did acting for TV shows and movies, basically greedy agents who weren't satisfied taking the customary cut from both sides of the transaction.
The key is to realize that these people are often under intense pressure to deliver, and will start promoting you to the client almost the minute you begin communication. I would get myself in the running, but delay any commitment until I had a chance to sit down with the client (producer, in my case), and talk over price directly. I would then offer the agent a standard percentage. By that point, they would have to either accept it, or explain why the talent they had already "sealed" would not be showing up for the gig tomorrow.
Who gives a f**k what he's pocketing, he's offering a decent gig for someone who could entertain a little'en for that long.
He's an agent, that's what agents do. Seems you can't offer a job on here anymore without the nit-pickers getting involved.
