    50 interviews in 8 hours is about 10 minutes per interview, and that's back to back, no breaks, no lunch, no one being late, etc.

    Not that I believe this is real in any way. But there are ten chairs at that table. His interview could be like those predatory knife MLMs where they pack the room full of idiots to find the one apex idiot.

    Schedule:

    Ten at a time. Ten minutes each.

    Even if you space them out to the top of the hour you have time for a long lunch where you can commend yourself about being a drain on your species while staring at yourself in the bathroom mirror of a cracker barrel where you are scoping out some poor underage girl to molest verbally.

    Wait... What were we talking about?

        Even more unbelievable is that anyone would spend $10-$12 on one vending machine drink in the middle of a ten minute interview.

        Might be why he only manages to persuade half of them.

          That’s active income.

          I guess if he's getting paid to do the interviews then it's technically passive... wait no, then the whole interviewer thing would just count as advertising for his vending machine business

            sure... 9-8 min per job interview including welcoming the candidate, smalltalk, talking about the bullshit role you have to offer, listening to the candidates speech about why they are the best match for the bullshit role, asking critical questions about hypothetical job situations, pressing the candidate to buy a pyramid-scheme soda, saying goodbyes and escorting the candidate out.

            sure that sounds realistic

              Half the candidates is 25-30. It would need to be at least $10 per drink for that profit number, and that's only if he's getting free electricity and drinks

                It's deceptive advertising. I wouldn't consider it actual advertising.

                    If he's going by the usual price, it's $1.50 a soda. So that'd be 200 interviews in a day. Which I doubt you can get done in an 8 hour shift. Also, he calls it "passive income" although the post makes it seem like this is something he does to get the income. So not really passive.

                      Now hire someone to do the interviews, then it's passive income.

                      Unless he’s now managing that person. Then it’s industry! Don’t mind us, we are just out here creating jobs.

                            That's not "Passive" income, if you have to attract 50-60 people per day, pretend to interview them, while subliminally encouraging them to use the vending machine. That's called a full-time job, and probably illegal, too.

                            And that isn't $300/day profit, he has to pay for those items in his machine. The profit is probably no more than 50%, so $150/day. For an 8 hour day, that's $18.75 an hour. That's a lot of work for not that much money. It certainly isn't "Passive."

                              The math doesn't math.

                              Even assuming the drinks cost $3, even if all 60 bought one, that's $180, not 2 or 3 hunnid.

                              And that's not counting the work to do the interviews, as mentioned by others, or counting the work to do inventory and stick the machine, it even the cost of the drinks themselves.

                              Bro really doin all this work for what accounts to maybe $30 profit on a good day. Which would be ok for a tiny amount of work, but even if he does this at his regular job, is just a decent chunk extra, not a ton.

                                  It'd be better if they had multiple rooms, multiple vending machines and multiple interviewers. Pay the interviewers to do the work and take the passive income.

                                  But also this is horrible noone should do this.

                                      At lowest estimates that’s a 17hr work day 🤣. 20 minute interviews with no delay in between and no lunch or bathroom breaks.
