Things I Won’t Do For Money…

The 2010 20K: Day 10

Last updated on April 4th, 2021 at 12:53 am

…ESPECIALLY for $55.

So after posting yesterday’s blog, one of my friends sent me an MSN message with the following enclosed:

“Clean my toilets”.

Thanks, Kev. While this is definitely on the list of things I MIGHT do, there’s a caveat. I’d expect the hirer to pay the costs of travel. It just doesn’t make much sense otherwise. If I have to pay $55 (or more!) to make the $55 back, there wasn’t much sense in travelling all that way, was there? So yes, $55+applicable costs will be the rate 😊

So just so your imaginations don’t run COMPLETELY wild, let’s list off some things I WON’T do for $55:

  • Sleep with you (and no, Sarah won’t give it the okay, so don’t try that angle, either)
  • A job that obviously costs wayyyy more than $55 to do (like, I dunno—develop a database system for a company of 20,000 people)
  • Anything causing direct harm to myself or others

Just to name a few.

Didn’t get around to finishing up the Indie Writers’ Deathmatch entry, but hoping to use it for something else in the near future—submissions for indie mags are always being requested.

Another week is upon us, and I still have a few things to do before bed—a resume to send out, things to scan and various items to consolidate. Gonna be one of those nights, I guess 😊 Hopefully this week will be rife with opportunities to increase this total!

The 2010 20K Running Total = $62.20

Thanks for reading and wish me luck this week,
