what do you think?
Most of the affiliate Reps that I know (and that would be many) aren't mega rich and are not gods. There's a lot of them out there that make decent money, if weeks were actually 40-hours. But that is usually not the case. Considering the hours that some Reps put in, I wonder if some are even making minimum wage.

I do have a TON of respect for the Reps out there, it isn't an easy job. Affiliates out there today expect the world to be handed to them, and on a silver platter. Most affiliates demand free hosting, free content, free traffic, free listings, free design, free incentive prizes, ridiculous payouts, etc.

It's kind of sad what the Reps have to endure these days, whatever happened to the good olde days when it was necessary for the affiliates to do some of the workload too???
