Everyone here is anonymous. Nobody sees who wrote what.Roadie· 2–5 years in · 2 weeks agoMonthly Under $100Hours Under 10 hrs hrs/moHourly $10.00
I do not live in a large metropolitan community. There are not many offers in my area and I would have to go to one of the heavily populated areas 40 to 50 miles away. Not feasible when I factor in mileage. When there is an offer locally, it usually does not meet my requirements as far as money, time and mileage are concerned.
