I am *so* jealous (and poorer, and not really any healthier)

a woman stopped me in grafton street and offered me €5 to "look at ads for alcopops on a monitor"

i politely declined, made my excuses and left

A friend of mine is as poor as a burgled nun and he wants to get involved in this testing business. Can someone PM me with details on how to go about it?

I made a few squid doing this when I was a student.
Had to take pills and play a lot of table tennis.
Was boring and uneventful.

I'll wager thats the best anecdote you have heard in a long while.

 

[Anne OMalley]

Ever, in fact.

So how and where did you apply?

i got asked to do market reasearch.
i was in the georges street arcade looking tough when a lady with a clipboard asked me to try some breakfast, naturally, i took out my cock, but instead i was led over to a nearby hotel.
i then had to eat two different bowls of crunchy nut cornflakes, with different types of milk.
i choose A as being nicer and got a fiver for my troubles.

Twice.

Once I had needles put in to the muscles in my hand and then had to play more or less simon says with moving the correct finger in the correct direction according to lights. I made a good bit of cash.

The other I had to get an MRI then play a video game (can't remember the name) for 30 hours in the span of 4 weeks. Then another MRI. Made about 350 dollars. Never really played video games hence why I was chosen. I learn very quickly that I like to shoot things. A lot.

Sounds like there's a good chance you could die.
