Today we went ML consulting for a job. I intended to take the survey and do in other ddays but it so happen plans have changed. We took the job offer and work today! The deal was : $9 / survey done. But! the surveyor must find the specific person [as listed on the list] to do survey. Not any Lim-cum-put can do the survey. The good thing is .. we have someone to drive us around to do the survey[Something additional to the deal]. and another thing is .. if you get no surveys done .. we will still earn a basic pay of 30 dollars. If we can do 4 surveys and above ... we will be able to earn more than 30 bucks. It is not easy [ if you ever think this is easy money]
This job is more like a touring around Serangoon road and Ang Mo Kio road trip. We did most of out surveys that. The team comprises of the driver[ Peter i think], another surveyor, me , turtle and Elizabeth the Leader of the team. We went around to different households to ask the particular person in that house to help us with a survey. More often than not, that particular person is working, not at home. And sometimes, the person might be around ... but he/she just do not want to do. We work from 12.30 to 9.30. 9 hours. I only done 2 surveys and turtle did 2 and a half ... haha halfway done survey. We piled our resources under one person so we can earn extra money. Effectively, we only earned a miserable 34.50 per person. So you see,, this job aint easy. However, it was a relaxing job and we did alot of sightseeing. Turtle saw a GRC-grassroot leader and witness a monitor lizard being knocked down by a car. She also chatted with a man about Curry leaves. lol... she had a pretty exciting day. For me .. it's just yet another passing day.
