Reason for premium rates - Page 2

I hear ya boxermom. I would like a fall back line too, just can't make myself do the training. I'm about to run out of time on TRU if I'm gonna do it. I would rather do C*C or the new SP line. The TRU sounds like too much trouble for no money!

I took on Sh*p, and I'm pleased with that choice, if it helps. Training was easy---it's like D* lite LOL. And the money should be good for the holidays. I picked up a juicy .35/min hour last weekend and made $19 plus 2 commissions. I know I won't work it enough to stay tier 1, but it's a nice change. HTH

Thanks much for the info, MamaJen! I think I'll go juggle my opportunities page around a bit...

I did sh*p as my first line with W. I started around this time last year. I did okay until Christmas was over and then it really dried up, as to be expected I guess. I did pretty good during that time. I didn't even think about trying to pick it back up for the holidays.

I just can't bring myself to drop chirp hours (even if just for a breather) to pick up hours and not get any calls (like what I've heard on TRU). I just don't like all the KPI stuff on the order taking lines.

And Hodgie, I understand completely, believe me! The hours I work chirp are the hours I am available to work. So working something else is always a gamble. I started on with A*DD just before the Aug drive, and while the pay was good per min, I was only avg 20 min TT/hour. It's really hard to get motivated to work something else if the TT isn't what I'm used to making. Maybe you can recert Sh*p just for the next month. I'll bet a month of something new will refresh you

I will be more than happy to help with the weekends. this weekend will be the end of my 2 week wait.

So tell those that matter to look out for me.

so are you saying that this line is have to work for
