So, I have been a ChaCha SMS Guide for a little over a month. They're all secretive over there, so I don't think I'm supposed to really divulge a whole lot what it's like to be a Guide. Easy as pie to pass the tests. The actual work is another story. I just did it here and there for the first 4 weeks. But now that my financial situation has changed a bit, I've been Guiding a lot more.
A lot more.
And it's driving me crazy!
The system could be better. The questions could be much better. But it keeps food on the table, so I struggle on. We Guides recently got an update about some system improvements. They'd been promising these changes "in a few weeks!" since I began, but now they actually seem to be rolling out the first stages this week. I'm looking forward to it. Anything to spare me some of the really off-the-wall questions!

Hey, I'm also a ChaCha guide. What do you think of the new pay scale.
I won't be referring anyone else. I'm afraid somewhere else down the line they'll be sucker-punched with another ridiculous policy.
Pretty much hate the new pay scale. It wouldn't be so bad if a) they only docked people for bad answers instead of also holding them to a weekly quota, b) they had their system up to a standard that people could count on and accurately track their progress, c) they were more transparent with their practices -- you have to rely on fellow Guides for any up-to-date info!
It's a disaster that I'm hoping to get away from very soon -- after only being with them for under 2 months!
