I'm guessing it's per minute, because you work on your own time. Can't be sure, though.

thats what i'm guessing, so .50 a minute = $30 an hour if you actually work a full hour. wonder how they track it though?

I wouldn't mind that in my spare time. Of course they're probably charging $1.99 per minute or more. But I could sit here and talk to people about spyware and viruses while I work on computers. It's what I do anyway, I'd just be doubling my income somewhat.

Except that the call in number 1 would cost more than 50 cents a minute so you suggestion should really say:

1)...
2)...
3)...
4) Profit * -1

Err... and you would live happily ever after... until you received the bill from the phone company.
