Quote

Chicago-based casting agency O'Connor Casting has posted a call for current or former owners of the Note to "share their experiences with the Galaxy Note 7, the Note 7 recall and their overall experience with Samsung". If you're not in Chicago, you can submit a video application. The ad will be filmed in New York and those who are chosen to appear will be paid $600 or more.

I mean, if I own a Note 7 and live in the US, I call dibs on that $600 and I'll be there asap. Without the battery issue, GN7 is a great phone and $600 doesn't grow on trees.

Pay $600 + advertising campaign costs in an attempt to gain back lots of lost money from the recall and future revenue lost from the Samsung brand being trashed. 

 

Quite shallow, if I'm honest. I expected a big corporation like Samsung to be a bit more subtle in their business practices.

Few things to note (no pun intended):

Please only apply if you are a current or former owner of the SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 7. If chosen, you will need to show proof of ownership.  

 

RATES

THIS IS A PAID project. If chosen for the project, you will receive a minimum of $600.00 per day with potential to make more.

 

Dates you need to be available: If chosen, you'll be needed for 2 consecutive days (which include travel). Dates are TBD sometime during 10/7 - 10/17.

Location: New York, NY (travel and hotel will be provided by client)

You may NOT get paid, but you MAY earn even more than $600. 

 

The ability to google properly is a skill of its own.

That way I'm sure the Note 7 will explode in popularity.

Can verify. 

 

US dollars are made of cotton paper as opposed to more common wood paper. So yeah, $600 doesn't grow on trees.

It grows on fields and until recently was picked by the

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

That is the definition of a prostitute.

If it ain´t broke don't try to break it.

But apples grow on trees, and apple devices cost money
