Wow. Is that even minimum wage? I mean, considering the time required for each stage of the viewing/writing. The creative underclass keeps expanding.
PS I'd love to see a feature on just who currently writes all those alternately weird, misguided or sometimes cleverly funny episode/film descriptions...

Jeb, they are "weird, misguided or sometimes cleverly funny" because the writers do not take up said time required for viewing/writing, most specifically the viewing portion. If they did actually watch complete episodes or movies that would be far from minimum wage; as it is they skip through picking up pieces here and there glance over a description on imdb or rottentomatoes, and then mash something together in about 5 minutes.

I think Starbucks pays more than this gig ... And you get benefits. And you're not kicked out after the six-week trial period.

I know that you have done a hard research, performing your good enough information about this post. Hence, such kind of job people perform writing the dissertation writing and just thesis proposal exploring.
