    thank god, finally got a job

    after no job, and 3 debts that need paid (car, cell, credit card) things got tight, so i got a new job. its at some place that packages stuff in a wearhouse, so im getting paid per thing i package, hopefully it will turn out ok. lol anyone have experience with getting paid by a "piece rate"? any helpful hints or strategies?

    Do they qualiy control? If not you could just toss shit in there and tape it up all sloppy and pakc like 5 times as much crap as the guy next to you.

    If they do then you are kinda screwed, guess just copy the method the more senior guys uses.
    Im now E30less.

      I doubt most places have quality control, since alot of my packages look like they just throw all their crap in the box and send it downt he line.

          I have done some peice work before... its cool, but I work quickly so it pays off...
          its not much different than flat rate at the dealer... same idea. you get paid for what you complete, makes sense to me. 8)

              If you're like me, then you can just go into a "Zone" and the motions just become fluid and fast.

              I remember a few years ago we were doing something with mass production in one of my classes, and I alone produced more pens (just assemble of twisty ball-points) than 2 other teams did with a group of 4.
              My mountains are better than yours.

                Totally, I'm really good at that kind of stuff to, like an assembly line kind of thing. Give me a couple minutes to find a groove, and I can really haul ass.

                    Comes out to about $8.00 per hour. Not bad. And you will only get faster.
