“$5 a post”?? I wouldn’t even turn on my computer for such a small sum. They don’t seem to appreciate good witty writing.

Five dollar? That would be 15 a week. A lot less than you’d usually get for one measly, tiny print article.
One can’t expect a french four course meal including desert, cheese and digestif and pay like the McDonalds.
Plus: Also expected to write some PR-stuff about products/people you’d never have written about on your own accord.
Silly offer.

I would never work in a writing capacity for someone who can’t spell “vary”.
Given the poor writing style and multiple typos, the abysmal pay scale isn’t the only problem here…

Wow, that’s definitely a great compliment but they’re expecting a lot for $5.

Good gravy…how sad is that the job site in question actually lists “LOW-PAYING FREELANCE WRITING JOBS” as a category? What, precisely, is supposed to be the draw?
At least they’re honest, I suppose.
