   I would!
   I would immediately advance my first check, then quit.
   Hopefully you get paid every two weeks.

   I have worked in that industry though I have recently moved into small consumer loans rather than payday loans. It is a simple job, but most companies demand results, and though the computer does most of the work for processing loans it is not much help when having to collect bad loans. It is a decent job as long as the company you work for is a responsible lender for example they don’t push people to take out more money than they can afford, or heap on extreme fees once they go into collections. This type of work is quite often down played by those hiring because they want you to think it is super easy which it is physcially but generally management is crazy, no matter how you perform it is never enough, and they very rarely deliver on everything they promise. As long as you do what your told to the best of your abilities and avoid promotions it is okay for awhile.

   If you do it, have an exit strategy well planned. I would imagine that many people in those jobs don’t have much experience in the work world or college degrees. Thus, they get stuck in a dead end job that is high stress because they’ve got to hear the financial problems from their customers that are in desperate need. Your exit strategy may include applying for better jobs outside that company or going to college to gain a degree that will allow you to make 2 or 3 times that. Good luck.
