You work the amount of time, days and number of days it takes to do the scene you are in, you do not get to pick anything about the work except if you want to do a particular job when it comes along, but if you turn down too many, they will not consider you any longer. You get paid about $75 a day and meals. It is just standing around waiting until they are ready to film the scene and then doing what the assistant director has told you to do. It is pretty cut and dry, nothing exciting, no real acting involved.
