- JacobAldridge 11y agoI had a part-time job for a while inspecting cinema advertisements. The pay was minuscule (I did it on the side of my full time work), but all it involved was writing down the ads and previews in the order they were shown and noting any reaction from the crowd (positive, negative etc). My work was done when then feature started ... at which point, well, it would be rude to get up and leave wouldn't it? (We did have to get the manager's permission to stay for the show, but I was never once knocked back. I'd usually buy a frozen drink, so I guess they got something out of me.)
- YokoZar 11y agoDoesn't it defeat the purpose a bit if they know you're there? Why not cloak the inspection so you can catch the sort of fumbling of ads that happens when you're not aware you're being watched?
- ibmthrowaway218 11y agoThey're paid to visit lots of pubs during one particular match. Walk in, look at screen(s), walk out. You wouldn't get to see much of the game at all as most of the time you will be traveling between pubs.
- amelius 11y agoYes, but they get to tell a bunch of hooligans that the show they are watching is over.
