Default Re: Feedback on inquires received...
Viviana - I can see why you think this is a little screwy. It looks legitimate enough, but there's not much respect for the "employee," as Tess notes. It'd treat this one lightly. Select from his list a few items (like 3-4) that you can do a great job on in two hours, and offer that for a flat rate. If he bites, do a super-excellent job for him and see what happens. He probably won't bite, though, so you probably should give him the courtesy of a reply and then move on.

It's ok if some employers want to work with low-wage overseas services. Others prefer to work with people closer to their own culture and time zone. There's room for all.

Good luck! I sympathize with suffering through the unknowns of virtual relationships!
