    can you at least try and form full english sentences?

    try and add a bit more to your request.

    are you talking about handing out leaflets on a street?

    I, for my sins, worked in promotions for about a year... on and off.
    It's pretty rotten.. They max you ever get for doing a job is about €30 and they all only ever last 2 hours so.

    1 you have to travel to the place of work which is always different so you also spend a lot of time looking for it.
    2 They give you these teeny tiny teeshirts to wear because they are too scabby to get different sizes (I always robbed the guys ones)
    3 They don's pay you until 3 weeks after you have finished your promotions
    4 They pay crap
    5 Some weeks you don't even get work and the jobs are nearly always boring leaflet drops or freeze your fingers off at 7.30am on the dual carriageway dodging traffic.....
    6 You have to go for briefings which are unpaid but you are required to have gone to it in order to get picked for jobs.
    7 These companies are nearly always full of poser heads.

    So in short...... I wouldn't recommend it...
    Get a bar job.
