I have recently been creating jobs for the FreeCompliments Community, and have found HSBI as a very useful payment model. Now, I’d like to create another job, but this one is to help me out personally.

Using the HSBI (Hive Stake-Based Income) model to pay employees allows them to receive permanent income as long as they keep creating posts. This means that even if they work for only a month or so, they’ll have a lifetime income, in the form of votes, as a result of the HSBI Units they receive, provided they keep posting to Hive.

The Job

Due to my 80 hour workweeks + travel time, in addition to changes between day and night schedules, I sometimes have difficulty keeping track of certain data which I use for my posts and analysis. The job I am offering will requirement a time commitment of up to 5 minutes per day (often as little as 2 minutes per day), but it is 7 days per week, and delivery of accurate data on a timely basis is important.

I would require a daily report of the following off of my account between 8-9 p.m. EST (Eastern Standard Time), and you can use this exact format:

1. My delegation to Ecency in HP to 3 decimal points (in parentheses, the price of Hive to 3 decimal points)

2. My delegation to Brofi in HP to 3 decimal points (in parenthesis, the price of Bro to 3 decimal points)

3. How much Hive I earned from Ecency (this is rewarded nightly, at 8 p.m. EST)

4. How many Ecency Points I earned from delegation

5. How much Bro token I have

6. How much Hive I earned from Bro (approximately once per week)

7. How much Hive Power I earned from posts (author rewards only, not comment benefactor awards)

8. How much I earned in HP under the ‘Account Growth’ section on https://hivestats.io/@freecompliments

As an example, using tonight’s values:

1. Ecency Delegation 505.733 HP ($0.320)
2. Brofi Delegation 33,071.475 HP ($2.372)
3. 0.137 Hive from Ecency
4. 50.573 Ecency Points
5. 60.168 Bro
6. 0 Hive earned from Bro
7. 0 HP from Post author rewards
8. 0.170 HP from hivestats

It is essential that I have this data at the listed time above, particularly on Wednesday nights, as I write and publish my Ecency Delegation Experiment series based on the collective APY from that day. I’d offer more leeway on other days, especially the weekend, provided that some data is sent to me every day. Additionally, if you are taking days off (within reason), I’d require advance notice so that I can plan how to obtain the data myself.

The payment offer

For every week that accurate reports are provided on a timely basis, you will earn 2 HSBI Units. This comes out to a total of approximately 20-25 minutes of work per week (it might be a little bit the very first week, and then much quicker as you get the hang of it).

I am quite forgiving, so if a report comes late or there is a tiny error every so often, there is no penalty (we’re all human, after all). If I have advance notice that you’ll be away and can’t deliver reports, there is no penalty. However, if these things become very consistent, then the rewards would decrease. If there is a great deal of consistency and accuracy, extra rewards may be delivered.

Additionally, if the work is consistently excellent and timely, I may offer additional data collection, and even a little bit of calculation, for extra pay.

There is also a 5 HSBI Unit sign-on bonus if you agree to do the job for the next year. There is also an exit bonus if your work is consistently strong and you provide a 2 week advance notice of an exit.

Continuing to build Hive’s economy by adding different types of jobs

The additional creation of jobs with various structures permits the expanding use case of Hive as a payment for services, in line with Hive’s function as a medium of exchange. Creating multiple types of jobs using a similar payment system provides an initial basis for what can be considered a fair payment, thus establishing Hive as a unit of account. The more jobs are created with Hive, the more we will validate its practical value. Once this happens, we will more readily be able to establish a consistent value of assets in terms of Hive, since it will be attached to work requirements; this will establish Hive’s store of value. Combining all of these factors will turn Hive into functional money.

An economy must be built upon functional money. This is why we must take steps to ensure that Hive can, indeed, function as intended. Let’s continue creating different types of jobs and establish Hive’s practical value with practical use cases.

Conclusion

This time, I am posting a job position to personally help me. It will help continue the validation of Hive and HBD as valid forms of money, and bring value to the Hive economy.
