I watched a podcast today....gal from Philly area.
She knows this local gal (not a US citizen) who has hired out to be a 'traveler' for the Kamala Harris arena-fill-up crew. Pay? $700 a week in cash.
Deal? Well....she agrees on paper to be up and ready to go....each morning, to get to a bus-point, and ride a bus (no one say amount of travel time, but I'd assume up to 4 hours) to reach some arena in the region.....walk in and fill the place for 90 minutes, then return home.
No one says anything about catering or food, but I would assume somewhere in this....there's some snacks handed out on the bus going/returning.
The question is....would you do this for $700 a week, and I assume for a six-to-nine week period....meaning $4,200 minimum and $5,600 maximum...in cash (not being taxed of course)?
I paused over this....nine hours of patience. Maybe they hand out a beer or two (at least on the way back). But would I do this for 42 continuous days? No. Course, there is this cash gimmick.....yeah, considering how crappy things are on the economy....I'd probably do it for the $700 a week in cash.
Someone last week did cellphone check of a arena or a Harris-rally. Of the ten-thousand people there....roughly three-quarters were from 400 miles or more away....meaning they probably rode a bus. All getting paid $700 a week? Well....you can't make that case....zero proof.
It's just a funny business.....that likely will continue on in 2028 and 2032. For you retired guys....who have the free time and don't care to waste nine hours to make $100 in cash (with a lunch and beer probably)....it might be a occupation (at least until the IRS figures this out).
