Shady Prop Shops

I see this subject come up a lot on here so i just wanted to address this issue in case any newbies out there are considering a "position" at one of these arcade shops ... a little word of wisdom in life: A job is supposed to pay you, not the other way around. any firm that requires you to contribute capital without a salary of any kind is BULLSH*T. they are simply trying to make money off of transaction fees, and you will find yourself broke within 3 months or less. so do yourself a favor and search out the more legitimate shops in nyc and chicago. they are out there, you just have to look. and dont settle for an arcade, they are honestly pathetic and they would hire an infant if they had the capital to put forth. hope this helps ...
