Thanks, ita and Zen.
They're so shady that it's actually several different companies -- I work for NewsH____ters, which is only about eight employees (and therefore they don't have to offer insurance to us), but that company strictly does work for the bigger company, so ... I just figure whatever way they can get around spending money or other obligations, they've figured out a way to do it.
Last I heard, the owner has about a dozen different corporations, and they're all tangled up.
I got to sleep around 3. Woke up at 6:15 to help husband get ready for his big exam today. Ate a chicken biscuit for breakfast. Went back to sleep until about 11:30. I'm now starving, but my body has absolutely no idea what it wants or should be eating.
Oh, and I forgot to say, PACKAGE! In the mail! That's happy-making.
Choose baseball and work. At least that is what I'm doing today. Go A's!
Amy, that sucks. But my dearest hope is that this will lead to something more worthy of your efforts. A place that values you.
Sorry, Amy. May this be the start of something better!
So I ate ice cream for lunch. That's a legitimate choice for the unemployed, right?
Oh Amy, ugh, I'm so sorry. That's never good news, but I'm hoping it turns out to be a blessing in disguise for you.
BookPage doesn't hire remote employees, do they? ::weak smile::
I'm looking at coffee cake myself, Dana. Ice cream is probably one better.

I wish! I would talk you up in a heartbeat. We have reviewers all over the country, but not employees. (If you want to review for us, let me know! We only pay $25 per standard review, though, so it's not exactly lucrative...)

Absolutely! Coffee cake as well.
