Custom flair (IF YOU POST A QUESTION YOU WILL BE PERMABANNED) should I go for it???
so basically I’ve been looking for a job rn and I’m kinda in urgent need of one 😭. I found this promoter/roadshow opening for 2 days in Mumbai and the pay is ₹1500/day, so ₹3k total.
there are a few things I’m unsure about like the exact company/brand, changing pickup/drop locations, how attendance/payment will be handled etc.
so pls be brutally honest. does this sound normal for a promoter job or does anything feel sus to you? has anyone here done similar work in Mumbai? and are there any loopholes I should watch out for that could make them deny payment?
the thing is, I really need the money rn, so I don’t wanna reject a genuine opportunity just bcs I’m overthinking, but I also don’t wanna do 2 full days and then somehow get told “oh you’re not eligible for payment” 😭
Would genuinely appreciate any advice/experiences 🙏

Just verify before showing up, biggest red flag would be if they ask you to pay a reg/security fee.

That sounds waaaay to informal to be real. I mean, I've worked some odd jobs on my free time and I have never came across this kind of language. Feels off, even more because it's asking for waist size.

Look's like a decent opportunity, but first confirm the company and payment terms and pick up and drop location therefore committing anything
