how much can one make a week doing this?

8/29/2008 9:24:24 AM

^^ I don't know if I worked with him... if I did, it was when I first started working there (March last year).

^ Not that much, since the shifts are so short (always 2 or 3 hours). You could manage $100-$150 a week if you worked several days. However, if you're in school, the hours are perfect. Morning shift is over by the time classes start (6-9am or 6:45-8:45am), the afternoon shift you can do after classes (3:30-6:30pm or 4-6pm), and you still have time for homework in the evening.

you have to bust ass for not that much money. if you're desperate and work 2 jobs, i could see someone doing this.

[Edited on August 31, 2008 at 12:57 AM. Reason : also if you're trying to break into radio, this is not the way.]

8/31/2008 12:57:01 AM

False. It may not pay much, but it's not difficult work.

8/31/2008 1:43:15 PM
