04/26/2004: "Another Job Offer! (re:www.onlylegitworkathomejobs.com)"


Can you believe it! I got another job offer! No interview, no nothing! Just a $27/hour job offer (less applicable deductions). With full benefits and four weeks of vacation after completion of one year of employment (the timing of any vacation is subject to manager's approval, may not carry forward unused vacation).

That I do not meet the requirements (50 WPM typing speed) is secondary. They can always fire me during the probationary period.

All I have to do is get a copy of their "Work At Home Guide" at their web site. The normal cost of $79.95 is reduced to $49.95. I guess I should have accepted their previous offer of $34.95, reduced from $59.95.

Initial www.onlylegitworkathomejobs.com post here; followup here.

So I have two questions.


  • Who is the "National Title Company, established in 1987"? I cannot confirm their existence.
  • I did receive an email titled "Confirmation of subscription to Available Work At Home Jobs email list from Available Work At Home Jobs".

    Someone (probably you) had requested to receive "Exclusive Work At Home Jobs" emails from Available Work At Home Jobs (Available Work At Home Jobs) to email address [...].

    If you agree to receive email messages from this person, click on the link [...] or just reply to this message.

    If you disagree, simply ignore it and you won't receive email messages from Available Work At Home Jobs.

    Should I respond and thus continue to receive these fine offers? I want to say yes, just to see what they come up with. How high will the Work At Home Guide price go? What else will they tell me, sight unseen, I can do? But I think I'll say no. These emails are not being sent to a spam or junk address (as detailed here), they are being sent to my primary email address.
