Suppose you knew about an older eccentric gentleman who wanted to hire a woman to be his handshake secretary. What that would entail is (if you agreed to participate) for you to go to his place and offer to shake his hand, then keep shaking on and on. When he tried to let go, you would tighten your grip and keep shaking. The pay would be ten dollars a minute for the handshake and ten extra dollars each time you kept him from breaking away… he would try once every minute. You would be in control of how often you showed up… it could be one day a week or every day. You would also be in charge of how long each handshake was. He would not keep holding on once you decided to let go.
If you showed up wearing an outfit with your shirt tucked in, he would pay an extra fifty dollars. If you wore the shirt with your sleeves pushed or rolled up, that would be another twenty dollars.
#1: Supposing you agreed to be his handshake secretary, how many days a week would you show up? How long would the handshake last in minutes?
#2: How often would you show up wearing the type of outfit he wanted? Can you describe an outfit in detail?
This question is meant for imaginative purposes only. The situation is not real or at least as far as I know.
