Question: If it's in "gigs" doesn't that mean $

Date: 2011-11-10, 10:14AM PST

So, last year I made a living from decent "gigs" as a DP on Craigslist. It seemed there was an appropriate pay scale for many jobs. Not so this year. FYI I tend to work for around $50-75/hr. I will not put the equipment in the car for less than $250. As far as I know this is an appropriate pay rate and fits roughly in with the union average.

My question for you DPs is: should we just flag all these adds that are basically offering DPs the opportunity to work all day for free or for some bullshit like IMDB credit?

Shouldn't these free requests be made in community?
