                No if you know they’re gonna have to check, then you’ve worked for your cousin Randy at his placeofbusiness doing menialchore related to the industry.

                You can confirm this by calling Mr Randolphius McGillecuddy, Esq.

          Easy mistake to make. Also words can not describe my admiration and respect for someone who can leave a comment like this up with a humble edit.

          I might double check your math if we split the cheque, but unlike 99% of the people on the internet, I already can tell that I would WANT to have a supper with you.

          It’s per week.

          500 x 4 = 2000/month

          2000 x 12 = 24k

          By all means i’d love to split restaurant bills with you ;)

      It’s definitely a joke or some sort of weird art statement, the only thing that bothers me is that I once got my decade-old account banned from LinkedIn for posting a job that they decided was discriminatory because it had a language requirement, and yet somehow this has passed their filters?

        You say definitely but it could be serious. In China there are people who pay to work, to avoid being « flagged » as unemployed, which apparently is worse than paying for a fake job.

    I get that the glib answer will be “so they can make money”

    But what is the actual thought process they are pretending to go through here? Cause the experience of being a prompt engineer is not some sought after experience like how people pay to be movie PAs for free or work as an artist assistant.
