<prompt> Human: The job is at a sales firm that bases its entire philosophy around hiring young people and promoting from within- apparently they never hire from outside the company aside from entry level.They sell different things, today they sold raffle tickets. They make commission only 35 and have higher commission if they sell above 3500 a week 40. If they do not earn 500 in commission then they are instead given that as a base weekly rate.Her parents are pushing her not to take the job because of this and the long hours-8-6:30 weekdays with saturdays being optional.The flipside is that they tell her that they promote rather quickly, and the managers make upwards of 200k a year. Tl;dr- gf has been offered a job but it sounds like a pyramid scheme. Were both young and have no experience in the matter  <response>: Doesnt sound like a pyramid scheme, but sounds like a crappy call center job - probably making telemarketing cold-calls all day. Your gf likely will never see a cent of commissions, but if shes looking for a 50hrwk minimum wage job, might as well take it if she has no other options.
