Does anyone know about an outfit called "RescueCom"??

I got invited to be one of their workers, but something isn't passing a sniff test

It's a franchise.

Invite to be a "consultant" working for their local franchise

I looked at the contract. For example:

" RESCUECOM will loan you 5 shirts when you start performing service calls for RESCUECOM. These shirts will be provided to you at no charge and must be returned upon termination of this agreement by any party. If you do not return the loaned shirts within 24 hours of notice of termination, you will be responsible to pay $ 50.00 per shirt loaned to you, but not returned. If you lose or damage your RESCUECOM shirt while working as a RESCUECOM consultant, you must notify your franchisee and replace the shirt at your own cost, which is $50.00 per shirt. "

$50.00 for a shirt??

You supply your own...

I'm going to guess you're giving them the "I don't think so" response.

Well goodness knows, they could use someone of your talent. However, they don't pass my sniff test either. They sued Google and lost over a "keyword issue" but I think it was a cheap publicity ploy - keyword issue indeed!

A delicate blend of bovine excrement and fermented sewage with just a hint of horse apples.
