Well, I spent Saturday working. It wasn't very productive for them to have us there surveying. Between the two of us we took in 20 surveys total in 8 hours each. But they will pay us!
I worked an hour Thursday, two half hours on Friday, and 8 hours on saturday. That's 10 hours or $80 before taxes. Not too bad! Also I get paid for the miles driving. 375 miles (600km) at 41.6 cents a mile. If I don't have the numbers wrong that will be $156. I spent 45 on gas for the trip. Not too bad of a profit. To be fair though I'm going to divide the amount I get by 3. One share to gas, one to me, and one to the guy who drove my car. Otherwise we don't get any pay for the time spent travelling.
That gives me 132 dollars for the weekend after taking out gas and the money I'm going to give to my coworker as his share. That means my half of this is $66! Weee! That's 500 SEK at the current 7.6 exchange rate! It's not great, but not that bad either. Every little bit helps afterall!
On a side note I didn't get any Swedish practice in this weekend, there were too many distractions. (squirrels, pine needles, trees)
