These online chat deals are something else. I suspect it's like the one I volunteered for, looking to make a little bit of extra money. At least the outfit I was involved with gave us a bit of training on their web site, which was the 'go to' for info in most cases, and they screened us from the beginning to see if we actually knew something about the subject. I guess I'm not surprised that RS wouldn't spend the time or money to do that.

I did the chat thing for two weeks before I found out I was not actually being paid, unlike people working for other companies, so I hung it up. They did send me a nice gift certificate, though.
