    What you need to do, is if it is going to be a percentage based payment, determine exactly what you believe you are worth at an hourly rate. Let's say you feel $16 an hour is a reasonable pay for your time. Now determine how much money your percentage equals based on how long it takes you - on average - to process this e-waste. Determine exactly what his percentage will wind up paying you hourly on average, and go from there. Either it's worth it, or it's not...based on the amount of time YOU have to spend to earn those dollars. And DEFINITELY pay attention to if you're receiving a 1099 or not. Uncle Sam's hit at the end of the year could make or break the deal.

    Good luck, though! Keep in mind experience and knowledge comes along with it as well. What's to keep you from acquiring and processing your OWN e-waste?
