Job Postings
« on: September 18, 2014, 11:20:36 am »
I often check the job boards of sites like indeed.com, monster.com, snagajob.com, among others.  I have seen more than once where individuals can post where they are looking for someone to do a job such as baby sitting or pet sitting.  It amazes me (and has to be a lie) that someone would offer to pay $15 an hour for a baby sitter 5 or more hours a night because they are returning to work on a job that pays $7.25 an hour.

lol.  Yes, it is far fetched where I live.  Did you miss the part where she is going to be working a job that pays $7.25 an hour?  She is going to pay someone DOUBLE what she will earn to watch her child while she returns to work.  Something just doesn't sound right.  But you can't report the job posting or even respond without making an actual account with that site.  It is in my home town so I am also curious as to WHO can pay double what they are earning out to someone else. lol

Sometimes a person has no choice - especially if they want a reliable person to babysit.

The job I saw was like $15 an hour to sit with a bunch of cats for 12 hours a day.  Just seems unrealistic to me.  I am thinking it has to be fake.  No person will pay $180 a day for someone to sit with their cats.  Especially while they are working.  I live in a very depressed area where even min wage jobs are hard to come by and then you are lucky to get 10 hours a week.  I just find it hard to believe the job posting could be legit.  If there are people who can afford to pay someone $180 a day to baby sit a bunch of cats I need to be friends with this person. lol

I'm subscribed to a lot of employment sites, but lately they haven't offered much, most of the time, I just delete them

I don't subscribe to any of them.  But I do visit a couple daily.  Mostly I just use indeed because it seems to have more than anything else.  But lately none of them are remotely close to where I live other than truck driver jobs.
