A. Sounds like pretty standard office management and clerical duties to me. If it is considered "entry level", you will get plenty of training for each task. If you have done office work before, at least 2/3 of these listed duties should sound familiar to you, and you could focus on learning the other ones specific to this work environment. If it sounds too hard, then you probably don't have the background or experience for it.

The salary would be the same, but your pay to work ratio, for this week only, would increase by 2.5% for each of the early hours. I believe you have already found the only Internet location which can offer any… [cont.]
