[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10-10 is NOT an option. It's ridiculous to act surprised that they are offering $10/hr when that was within the range they advertised [/quote]

+1. This is a problem with the software the company uses. You can't put in $10-$10. You have to put in a range. If the MB puts in $5-$10, she'll get no applicants. I don't think it's fair to put $10-$15 either, but the computer won't let you put otherwise.[/quote]

OP here.

I wonder if this regional or something? Like I said, I reside in Houston and there ARE postings with the $10 range only. I am absolutely 100% positive about that.

I have no problem receiving responses. I receive responses from parents on a regular basis, but it's like they don't bother to pay attention to my pay rate, availability, request to pay on the books, etc. I guess I have to agree with the parent pp who said it was the nature of the site since as she stated, I'm sure there are plenty of applicants who reply to parents with a pay rate higher than the parents listed.

To pp asking how overweight - I'm 220 and 5'3 and ideally I would like to be between 110-130. Just healthy, you know? I go to the gym several times a week and am active. In fact, I try to be more because I know obese people get the stereotype of being lazy, messy, etc. so I dress appropriately, try to be well groomed, etc to not perpetuate the stereotype.

I really appreciate the advice. I think I will go ahead and apply to an agency. Nothing to lose, right? [/quote]
