 Posted: Wed Jan 20, 2016 8:17 am Post subject: Good Hourly Rate for Part-Time Jobs |
 |
|
I've decided to take on some part-time gigs on the side. One's rate is 400 RMB to teach 4 or so kids in the kids' homes. They also supposedly will reimburse me for travel costs. Another is paying 500 RMB per hour to teach at their center. Regular classes with probably 6-8 kids.
I realize this kind of a ripoff to me since, if I were to teach these kids myself without the agency, I could probably charge each student 350+ RMB each and make a lot more money.
Are these types of gigs worth it to accept? |

What! I thought that only 5000 RMB an hour plus limo pick up and a massage from a busty girl enroute to the work was the expected wage? Ya'll doing something wrong.
My other friend gets picked up in a helicopter and flown to an exclusive island resort with mermaids and unicorns swimming and riding in the grounds, then has a blank cheque handed to him for his work. |

C'mon get negotiating.
I'm picked up in Air Force One with Michelle Obama my personal Trolley Dolly.
When I've finished my 10 mins instructing, Janet Yellen pops her head around the door to confirm that I'll take my pay in bullion as usual. |

If you think longer term - either of those jobs would be fine as a means to an end. It would expose you to a large potential pool of new students and allow you to make connections and grab some of them as your own. |
