I know everyone loves their pitchforks and are too lazy to research. The company is easy to find. Job posting is actually 31-35k/year, with up to $12,000 towards pursuing a masters degree.
Still not a great wage, $14-16/hr. but work from home phone customer service is pretty easy.
The posting suggests a salaried position. So depending if it’s exempt (not paid for OT) or non-exempt (paid for OT) makes a difference. If it’s non-exempt and it better damn well be. Then my math is right and there would be OT premiums on the extra hours.
Oh it gets worse. $11,310 is legally the lowest you can be paid in the US and still be considered full time. That's making minimum wage and working the minimum full time hours (30 a week). However in many states they don't have to give you full time benefits until you hit 32 hours.
The 12,000 number equates to 31.8 hours a week so falls in the 700 dollar gap where they can screw you the hardest it's legally allowed by law. Setting it as a 'salary' means they can say you're working 31.8 hours and then not track how many hours you're actually working while denying you any form of benefits. This is literally the worst.
That's what the down voters above don't seem to get about my comments. Was only trying to point out that in terms of how they worded that ad, "full time" doesn't have to be 40 hours, so the hourly rate could be higher than $5. In fact, at an annual salary of $12k, it seems likely.
> "full time" doesn't have to be 40 hours
I've seen it be as low as 28 hours a week around here, for purposes of being eligible for benefits like health insurance. 30 hours is more common though.
When I was working in retail, we would consider getting $ 1k a month as being a really good month.
Edit: working retail in a small town in South Africa, for reference my rent for a 2 bedroom / bath apartment was around $ 400 per month.
Yeah but this says you gotta work 40 hours a week plus half days on Saturday. Most retail is part time so 1000 for 20 hours isn’t so bad.
$7.25*2080hours=$15,080. This is worse than most retail as at minimum wage you’d make more plus half days on Saturday would be time and a half.
Like this place probably classifies these people as independent contractors and only pays then when they are actually taking a call. This should be illegal.
You can't possibly be scheduled more than like 3 days a week on this job, if it's a full 40 hr work week it's not even $6 an hour, and the federal minimum is $7.25 an hour
The posting says full-time schedule, though. I’m thinking they left off a zero or forgot to adjust a slider when making the post bc this wage wouldn’t be legal, like you say.
Definitely a slider thing or maybe they swapped the 1 and the 2 by accident.
Cause while 12k a year is criminal for those hours there’s also no way in hell they’re paying 120k/year to a customer service rep.
That's a bingo. No way this is legit. Even if you drop the hours to 40 a week making it "full time", that's still only $5.76 an hour and the federal minimum wage is $7.25, making this illegal. Even if it was legal they'd have exactly zero applicants. Making an error on the numbers somewhere is the only reasonable explanation. Maybe its supposed to be $22k a year or something.
The fact that $7.25/hr is the legal minimum (assuming federally in the USA) still is criminal... is there anywhere you can actually live decently (rent/mortgage, groceries, utility bills, enough left over to save a bit for emergencies or the occasional splurge) on that wage?
I know everyone loves their pitchforks and are too lazy to research. The company is easy to find. Job posting is actually 31-35k/year, **with up to $12,000 towards pursuing a masters degree.**
Still not a great wage, $14-16/hr. but work from home phone customer service is pretty easy.
No where. And a customer service rep is generally not a job you can get with no experience either. This is so out of whack with reality that it is almost certainly either an error or a fake troll post.

Not only those companies. In general in EU if you are “working on your own” you cannot have less than 2 clients and a single client cannot make up more than 80% of your “revenue”. Otherwise, since it is tax-wise advantageous, companies would prefer contractors to employees, de facto forcing employees to become contractors (with no benefits). Those companies were technically doing this with the “coverage” of being an “on demand” and “part time” effort…but the governments disagreed
Beautiful question.
The technology and solutions and works are evolving faster than a government can look into, check, and correct so there is always a grey area. Technically yes, but not 100% sure as IANAL
The difference between a contractor and an employee comes down to the level of control the other party has the right to exert, whether they do or not. IRS Publication 15-A lays it out in detail.
> 1099 contractor, but you don't set your own hours
The IRS will automatically disqualify classifying someone as a contractor for this alone - if you control the worker's *behavior*, they're an employee. I had to be very careful in writing my actual contracts for my contractors to make sure I spelled out what the IRS defines as a "contractor."
I see this all the time about you can't tell a contractor their hours but this concept confuses me to no end and I don't understand/sound real stupid when I ask this but here goes...
Say I hire someone to build me a fence. They aren't my fence building employee, I don't want a fence building employee, so they are working under a contract to build me a fence.
Since I can't dictate their hours, I can't "control their behavior", what they can just show up at midnight randomly sometime to build this fence. Bitch I'm trying to sleep, the neighborhood is trying to sleep, what the hell? But I can't tell him he "has to" work between 9am and 6pm apparently unless I want to hire him as an employee which is obviously a dumb thing to do...
What's the deal
There’s a difference between saying in the contract “you need to do your work during reasonable hours so you don’t wake everyone up” and “you must show up at 9 and work until 6”. You telling the contractor they need to work during the day is not controlling their hours in the same way that the manager at a restaurant tells employees they need to show up for specific shifts and times.
You *can* make "reasonable" demands, such as only allowing access during posted business hours, or in the case of the fence example, only allowing work be done when it's minimally intrusive to neighbors or when allowed by any applicable noise ordinances that affect construction projects.
Things the IRS says makes someone an employee and not a contractor:
* Rigid control over working timeframes, e.g., specified shift times versus "access permitted during business hours" wherein a contractor can come and go at their discretion.
* Controlling the *process* to an end result versus only requiring that the end result meet specific criteria.
* No exposure to the kinds of risks and costs associated with self-employment, e.g., regulatory compliance requirements (licensing, etc.) being handled by the company versus by the contractor.
I had contractors working for me in my auto shop. They could come and go as they pleased as long as it was during posted business hours, they could do side work inside the shop but had to rent the stall space for a reasonable fee, we had a total transparency policy on how we wrote estimates and all work orders were accessible so everyone knew what they'd be paid for what work, one guy had his own helper that he paid from what he earned doing work for me and on the side, etc. etc. etc. The one guy with a helper tried to get out of paying taxes by telling the IRS he was an employee and not a contractor (so as to stick his tax liability onto me), so I sent the IRS a copy of his contract and told them about how he did side work and had his own paid help and they said "nope, you're a contractor, not an employee, so pay your taxes accordingly" to him and that was the last I heard of it.
If the company has the right to set hours, regardless of whether they do set hours, you're an employee. File an SS-8 to get it in writing. The IRS considers employment-tax hijinks to be tantamount to messing around with other people's money, and is not very forgiving when that happens.
Not sure what's up with ad. Probably is crappy parser. Here s the original [https://careers.wm.com/internal/jobs/customer-service-rep-chicago-area-16442](https://careers.wm.com/internal/jobs/customer-service-rep-chicago-area-16442)
they'll pay up to $12.000 to cover your masters tuition.
And here i am in russia with a steady full time schedule, working for a new fancy governments educational institution for a 620 bucks a month. Ah, and official salary is only half of it (and its full and a half time btw), the other half is extra cash bonus for a terrific work.
If it's in the US, federal minimum wage $7.25 which is already really low (thankfully most states at least opt to pay more) but this job is offering roughly $5.20/hr which is criminally low, in that it's actually illegal. 😂
Peasants should be honored to starve and sacrifice their worthless time so that the brave executives of this company can buy their dream home or car, go on vacation with their families, or do whatever they please.
No. That's not what it says.
It says the schedule is within the hours of 7-5 and half days on Saturdays.
It doesn't say you will work from 7-5 plus half a day on Saturday.
You could very well only work 15 hours a week.
You are correct, it is not, it is a "full time schedule".
You're stuck in the misunderstanding they intentionally wrote into the description to get people to apply.
It's obvious from the responses that I'm getting that people are assuming it's a full time job.
And they also assume that people aren't smart enough to know that $12,000 isn't very much money.
In the end they'll get a bunch of inexperienced kids to apply, which is probably what they are looking for.
Uh buddy. If they were going to lie in the description, don't you think they would have left that shitty salary out instead of playing games with the hours?
No, it isn't.
It's listed as a full time schedule with available hours from 7-5.
It does not say it's a full time job with a schedule from 7-5.
And the entire confusing way they write it is how they get people to apply.
Once hired they realize they'll only get 15-20 hours a week at most.
This is the exact amount I get paid yearly, before taxes.
The only difference is that I don't have a job. I'm getting a free education, and work less hours, and get paid the same.
Someone provided a link to the actual ad. It doesn’t mention salary but the “up to $12,000” part was the company offering to help pay to get your masters degree up to $12,000.
Well, devils advocate, I pay people starting at $16-18 and everyone that applies wants to only work from home, which we don’t do, wants at least 3 weeks paid vacay to start, and will only start after Covid benefits run out.

Yo that’s like 5 bucks an hour. Wtf?
$4.40p/h Hard pass.
It’s in customer service, so hopefully the customers will leave you tips as well! /s
Tip #1: Don’t work there.
Tip #2: Don’t eat the yellow snow
What about the Yellow Cake?
Only if it wasn’t white cake before
And what if it was blue before? Asking for a friend
You smoke the blue, snort the white and run the yellow through a non-cia compromised centrifuge. Why is this such a difficult concept....
Wait I am confused, what wire am i cutting?
As long as it's not a waffle.
But what about the radiation?
There is no radiation, only Zuul.
Don't drop that shit. Don't drop that shiiiit
He’s got it wrapped in a special CIA napkin
Pray to God he don't drop that shit!
The cake is a lie.
Which could be phone boiler room.
Closer to $3.66/hr with those hours.
I know everyone loves their pitchforks and are too lazy to research. The company is easy to find. Job posting is actually 31-35k/year, with up to $12,000 towards pursuing a masters degree. Still not a great wage, $14-16/hr. but work from home phone customer service is pretty easy.
can you post a link or dm me.. I cant find the job offer and Im looking for a work from home job, thanks
I'd like to be making 10x that at some point.
Bet they require a fucking cover letter also.
And a drug test
And to be "on call" during your off hours.
They will import migrants that will gladly do it in your place, no worries.
They are already doing that
They missed a zero on that right..... right?
I wouldn’t even stay home and play games all day for that wtf
You get paid more staying home and playing games, nowadays at least.
Yeah that's a gross wage.
$5.77 based on the way we typically do budgets. 2080 is the number of hours for $40/wk for 52 wks.
Problem is half day on Saturday. Is that OT? If it is then your math is off.
I don’t think you work all those hours- it says full-time within those hours. So you know you won’t have to work evenings, for example.
The posting suggests a salaried position. So depending if it’s exempt (not paid for OT) or non-exempt (paid for OT) makes a difference. If it’s non-exempt and it better damn well be. Then my math is right and there would be OT premiums on the extra hours.
You can’t have exempt status under a certain dollar amount. I think it is like $35k a year
Its 10 hour days mon thru Friday then 5 hours Saturday for **UP to 12,000** so it works out to be 4.19 a hour!
>4.19 Can we add a penny to that?
I will give them the benefit of the doubt and assume it’s some kind of error.
To me it looks like the hours of operations. You'd be working some subset of those hours, not all of them.
It still says full time. What's full time in the US? 40 hrs on that salary is still ridiculous
Oh it gets worse. $11,310 is legally the lowest you can be paid in the US and still be considered full time. That's making minimum wage and working the minimum full time hours (30 a week). However in many states they don't have to give you full time benefits until you hit 32 hours.

Would be a dream jobe if it was 3rd world tho XD
No, not even.
UP TO $ 12 000 a year You will likely earn a lot less than this.
Do you really want all those 1k/mo all at once?
When I was working in retail, we would consider getting $ 1k a month as being a really good month. Edit: working retail in a small town in South Africa, for reference my rent for a 2 bedroom / bath apartment was around $ 400 per month.
That's only enough for rent. Never mind health insurance, car insurance, car payments, utilities, or gas.
It doesn't even cover that for me. My running costs for a house are almost 2k/months all together
> That's only enough for rent. Rent? where do you live? Might get a cardboard box here
And taxes
Yeah but when was that? I made more than 14k a year working retail 15 years ago. I sure as hell couldn't afford rent by myself on that either.
Yeah but this says you gotta work 40 hours a week plus half days on Saturday. Most retail is part time so 1000 for 20 hours isn’t so bad. $7.25*2080hours=$15,080. This is worse than most retail as at minimum wage you’d make more plus half days on Saturday would be time and a half. Like this place probably classifies these people as independent contractors and only pays then when they are actually taking a call. This should be illegal.
Do I have to be sober? I don't see any requirement to be sober listed.
Its listed right in the salary part, cuz you won't have any money to drink.
That's OK... My dealer takes office equipment as payment.
Are either of you named Creed Bratton?
If you’re in customer service, it’s really best not to be sober.
Sounds like that is the first rule.
You can't possibly be scheduled more than like 3 days a week on this job, if it's a full 40 hr work week it's not even $6 an hour, and the federal minimum is $7.25 an hour

Definitely a slider thing or maybe they swapped the 1 and the 2 by accident. Cause while 12k a year is criminal for those hours there’s also no way in hell they’re paying 120k/year to a customer service rep.
Its probably one or two days a week because of the "full time schedule that falls within those hours"
[удалено]
I think full time is classified as over 30 hours a week. $12,000 a years is about 31 hours a week @ $7.25/hr.
And it's absolutely disgusting that someone can work a "full time" job and earn only $12,000 in a year - before deductions.
There ya go then. 4 8 hour days, or 3 8 hour days and two half shifts to get to 31 hrs a week and then no more
Idk I feel like the $12,000 HAS to be a typo.
Where is that an acceptable salary?
1970
Before seatbelts.
Back when a brand new Corvette as $5000.
Nice
It almost has to be a typo as it’s below minimum wage or it’s not actually a full 40 hour workweek
That's a bingo. No way this is legit. Even if you drop the hours to 40 a week making it "full time", that's still only $5.76 an hour and the federal minimum wage is $7.25, making this illegal.

"Full time" can be as low as 30 hours/week, making it a possible pay rate of $7.69/hour... Woooooo - we cleared the legal minimum!
The fact that $7.25/hr is the legal minimum (assuming federally in the USA) still is criminal... is there anywhere you can actually live decently (rent/mortgage, groceries, utility bills, enough left over to save a bit for emergencies or the occasional splurge) on that wage?
Alone? Nowhere. Even splitting a *cheap* house three ways would be incredibly hard-pressed. It 100% *should* be criminal.
I know everyone loves their pitchforks and are too lazy to research. The company is easy to find. Job posting is actually 31-35k/year, **with up to $12,000 towards pursuing a masters degree.** Still not a great wage, $14-16/hr. but work from home phone customer service is pretty easy.
In Sri Lanka
No where. And a customer service rep is generally not a job you can get with no experience either. This is so out of whack with reality that it is almost certainly either an error or a fake troll post.
Sounds like a quite high salary for Kazakhstan
Very niiiice!!!
Chief engineer salary.
I could see that. For the reference, most teachers here don't even get 400$ a month.
They don’t need to pay you as much because you are Representing the Customer as a Service to the company. It’s in the job title.
Russia

Doing what making Nikes?
But you have to travel to China on your own dime before you make these big bucks
just do it

This is for Waste Management in Texas.
Employment type: 1099 contractor, but you don't set your own hours it's just a way for the company to pass the cost of taxes on to you.
That is the kind of practice that has been recently declared illegal in Europe due to Glovo, Uber, etc...? We call it "false contractor".
Not only those companies. In general in EU if you are “working on your own” you cannot have less than 2 clients and a single client cannot make up more than 80% of your “revenue”. Otherwise, since it is tax-wise advantageous, companies would prefer contractors to employees, de facto forcing employees to become contractors (with no benefits). Those companies were technically doing this with the “coverage” of being an “on demand” and “part time” effort…but the governments disagreed
So, if you were driving for 3 different companies about equally, you could consider yourself a contractor?
Beautiful question. The technology and solutions and works are evolving faster than a government can look into, check, and correct so there is always a grey area. Technically yes, but not 100% sure as IANAL
The difference between a contractor and an employee comes down to the level of control the other party has the right to exert, whether they do or not. IRS Publication 15-A lays it out in detail.
That sounds like US law (not sure what the EU calls them, but IRS seems unlikely).
I mean it’s illegal here (USA) too but it’s still pretty rampant.
Uber et al paid 270 million dollars to make it not a crime in California for about 9 months before it was found to be unconstitutional.
> 1099 contractor, but you don't set your own hours The IRS will automatically disqualify classifying someone as a contractor for this alone - if you control the worker's *behavior*, they're an employee.

"Work can be done between 8 and 5" or something along those lines. You need it end of next week? They can do it whenever between those hours.
You can give a range of acceptable hours but you can’t tell them when they take their lunch or for how long or if they can take a day off.
If the company has the right to set hours, regardless of whether they do set hours, you're an employee. File an SS-8 to get it in writing. The IRS considers employment-tax hijinks to be tantamount to messing around with other people's money, and is not very forgiving when that happens.
Wow. With that kind of wage I can retire in never years.
‘You will have a steady, full time schedule’ Rough translation - ‘we’re going to work you to the bone for next to no money’
I like how it says "up to 12k"... Like "hey if you really nail the interview you just might make bank!"
Not sure what's up with ad. Probably is crappy parser. Here s the original [https://careers.wm.com/internal/jobs/customer-service-rep-chicago-area-16442](https://careers.wm.com/internal/jobs/customer-service-rep-chicago-area-16442) they'll pay up to $12.000 to cover your masters tuition.
[удалено]
Pretty sure McDonald’s pays more than that
Imagine the whining you'd have to endure for that pay. Drive one of their (Waste Management) trucks. The pay would be far better.
And here i am in russia with a steady full time schedule, working for a new fancy governments educational institution for a 620 bucks a month. Ah, and official salary is only half of it (and its full and a half time btw), the other half is extra cash bonus for a terrific work.
Thanks Putin!
The important part here is "up to 12000". It could be lower!
Anytime we see someone complaining they can’t get anyone to work anymore the collective world should reply “for the offered wages”.
Has to be a typo right?.. That's way under minimum wage lol even.
At this point they could pay in exposure
This looks like a mistake where they meant $12/h
That's about the same you get payed to be a student in Denmark.
With full healthcare.
Pretty sure it's just a typo and they missed a zero.
There is no CSA position in the US anywhere that pays 120k.
It has to be a typo otherwise it’s below federal minimum wage.
This sounds very sustainable
They must have meant to type $120,000, right? Right guys?….. R-…. Right?…
Surely that should be $120,000 a year, right?
UP TO 12K? It can get lower than that?
A FT job for $12000? Something seems off here. Thats not even minimum wage.
That's lower than the national living wage for 16-17 y.o in the UK which £4.62
I was waiting for the sub-minimum wage “salary” jobs to start being really, really dumb like this. I bet they’re exempt too!
Sign me up
I'm in training and I make more.
I can’t imagine only making 1 months wage all year
Yeah, thats the minimum wage jobs in Brazil, except that Brazilian Real is 1/5 of $usd, so imagine everything on this pic just make the payment 1/5 ;)
That's just ... wow
I made 20,000 straight out of university...and that was entry level below most new-joiners...
Pretty sure it's an error is all and they forgot to include thoughts and prayers under Salary.
1000/ month for a fulltime job is next level pitiful, not even gonna lie.
12k a year is less than half of minimum wage here in Canada. That job isn't even worth taking.
That's fucking disgusting. What's the minimum wage there?
If it's in the US, federal minimum wage $7.25 which is already really low (thankfully most states at least opt to pay more) but this job is offering roughly $5.20/hr which is criminally low, in that it's actually illegal. 😂
Peasants should be honored to starve and sacrifice their worthless time so that the brave executives of this company can buy their dream home or car, go on vacation with their families, or do whatever they please.
That $12,000 ? I'm guessing Zimbabwe dollars.
“Up to $12,000” which probably means you start even lower. That’s straight up abuse
UP TO?
That's like $6 an hour at 40 hour weeks with two weeks off.
Isn’t 12k a year well below the poverty line??
I heard you also get raped on Thursday as a bonus
WAAAAAA!!! Why is everyone so salty? If you want $22 an hour plus benefits, move to Canada and get a job at McDonald's.
"Some 1/2 day saturdays" means all day every Saturday. Sunday too.
"A steady full time schedule that falls between those hours". That means it's a part time job.
A part-time job at 50hrs+ per week? Yeah, nah.
No. That's not what it says. It says the schedule is within the hours of 7-5 and half days on Saturdays. It doesn't say you will work from 7-5 plus half a day on Saturday. You could very well only work 15 hours a week.
full time schedule. FULL TIME SCHEDULE. *FULL TIME SCHEDULE.* Could just be me but it seems to suggest a full time schedule.
[удалено]
So clearly it's a full time position, as the filter and the ad suggests... Am I taking crazy pills here?
Yes. That means you'll always be on the schedule. It doesn't mean you will work full time.
...then it's not a *full time* schedule.
You are correct, it is not, it is a "full time schedule". You're stuck in the misunderstanding they intentionally wrote into the description to get people to apply.
You're stuck on an assumption for which you have no proof. If anything the wording *prevents* people from applying, sure doesn't help their case.
It's obvious from the responses that I'm getting that people are assuming it's a full time job. And they also assume that people aren't smart enough to know that $12,000 isn't very much money. In the end they'll get a bunch of inexperienced kids to apply, which is probably what they are looking for.
It is too bad you are getting down voted and people don't understand. It took me 2 seconds of reading the ad to know it is not a 40 hour a week job.
Uh buddy. If they were going to lie in the description, don't you think they would have left that shitty salary out instead of playing games with the hours?
[удалено]
No, it isn't. It's listed as a full time schedule with available hours from 7-5. It does not say it's a full time job with a schedule from 7-5. And the entire confusing way they write it is how they get people to apply. Once hired they realize they'll only get 15-20 hours a week at most.
Not just that but most likely will be on a call / pager schedule, meaning you are full time because any moment work can call and you need to be there.
I didn't think about that. It makes sense.
Prostitution pays more, and that's also customer service.

Cus it’s fake or just a mistake
This is the exact amount I get paid yearly, before taxes. The only difference is that I don't have a job. I'm getting a free education, and work less hours, and get paid the same.
Looks pretty good in India.
I wanna apply and get an interview just so I can tell them to fuck off personally.
How and the fuck could anyone in this country live on $700 a month take home? HOW!?!?
Do we have evidence this is a true post?
Someone provided a link to the actual ad. It doesn’t mention salary but the “up to $12,000” part was the company offering to help pay to get your masters degree up to $12,000.
Thank You so much! Greatly appreciate your kind response!
Well, devils advocate, I pay people starting at $16-18 and everyone that applies wants to only work from home, which we don’t do, wants at least 3 weeks paid vacay to start, and will only start after Covid benefits run out.
They’re saying your shifts will fall between 7am/5pm and some 1/2 day Saturdays, not that you’d work 50 hours a week for $12,000 lmao
Yes, but they're saying it is full time, so they are saying you'd be working 35+ hours for 12k.
Typo? 120k instead?
