guard duty

Vegito SG

how much do you charge to help another guy do guard duty this world cup season?

mhcampboy SG

I used to charge $50 if anyone wanna "sell duty". But not during world cup la. Also....get the money first!! Dont fall for " later pay day i give you" or " next week " kindof excuses.... Mr. Green

Our MTLine don't do guard duties. We do our own duties, namely duty ambulance, duty driver x2 and duty specialist.

Duty driver and ambulance i am not sure but duty spec weekdays the market price is around $40 (because stay out unit) and weekends around $60 - $80.

I didn't sell weekday duty spec because i really don't see what's so hard about doing it but for weekend duties and public holiday duties i have been selling it ever since i got posted in all the way til i ORD (barring extras), sometimes up to $100.

in my unit most of the specs only do 1 or 2 guardcom duty per month. sometimes heng only 1 duty for 2 months. most are from the former SOCE, and some from HQSCE.

out of 30 days in a month, 8 are weekends. imagine how will they feel if they are the unlucky 8 selceted for weekend duty while the other 20+ do weekdays. Laughing

when this happens some of them will sell.

is it worth paying $50 to get someone to take over guard duty just for the world cup???

Ponders SG

Purely business question.

You pay $50. but you bet $100. You win the bet... you gain $50.

The feeling of seeing firsthand your team winning.... priceless.

But if you lose the bet.... life's cruel.

Wrong

But if you lose the bet, u wished u were doing the guard duty .... Laughing
