For Charity or Money?

I wonder how many have looked into Classified to source for part-time jobs since it's the holidays now.

If you did, probably you might have noticed tons of adverts in the papers about earning $30-$50 daily. It's not those posted up by some tuition centre asking you to do matching for them, but some dunno-what-kind-of company asking you to sell charity tickets. Note that it's CHARITY tickets.

Not knowing exactly what kind of advert that is, and in hope of earning some fast bucks, I called these companies up last week and you know what they told me?! From the tickets I sell, 20% of it will be my pay!

I got quite angered by it, and did not want to take up the job. I think it's pathetic that organisations have to go to such extent of letting people earn commission just to do their bit for charity. It's WRONG and I think it's something which should not be tolerated. Am so tempted to make a big complain and go write an article in the forum manz.

I got approached by this teen at the supermarket this afternoon, who's trying to sell me one of those charity tickets. I did not want to buy any because I'm not pleased to know that $1 out of that $5 ticket will be put into his pocket, and I got quite mad when I found out that Mum bought a ticket. If it's solely for charity, I will donate willingly, but I will not tolerate such behaviour of people doing it for the extra cash. Alright, maybe he's not one of those, but then again, how many will actually give up the commission they earn from this?

I wonder if these people feel guilty about earning commission from the unfortunate...*shakes head* I'm so ashamed to be living in such a society...
