All requesters have up to 30 days, but AFAIK, Amazon HITs aren't all 30 days.
Yeah, I don't pay too much attention to approval, so I just go on the assumption that I might not get that change for thirty days, no matter who the requester. It's Amazon, tax engines used to approve in a few hours, then went to three days. Everything changes, lol.

What do you do with a teenage kid that is to big for his britches?

I have an 18 year old step kid who literally since the day he graduated high school has been waiting to go to college and acts like he shouldn't have to do shit. What the fuck do you do with him short of punching his face.

I get bitchy if things don't approve within 3 days. I'm working on my rage/patience issues.

You pay the bills, make him carry his weight around.

I'd tell him he either has to do stuff around the house and/or get a job until he goes to college.

While I agree with you he will literally refuse, then he'll wonder out and tell me "I'm leaving" with his car his dad bought for him.

I should preface by telling you he's spent his whole life with his dad and grandpa bailing him out and doing everything for him and asking nothing from him while his mom and I are the opposite so "we're dicks".

He does have a job where he works like 2 days a week but he spends most of his time staying up all night playing video games...the other day he literally had no idea what day it was because of how fucked up his schedule is.

I've had CI batches take close to 30 days before. Wish all Amazon HITs had the same AA like Google does. :shifty:
I totally forgot about those, doing over 1k and watching that pending as a newb. Even now, I don't like it outstanding. It's like a wrong number in my head.

I assume he pays his own car insurance or his dad does? If not, and you do, take the keys.

Also, curfew. He has to be home by a certain time or he's locked out. And turn off the internet access at a certain time.

If he won't abide by your rules, tell him to move out. What would happen if you did that?

You're in a tough situation if he's been coddled and bailed out his whole life, there might not be anything you can do at the moment except make him move out, which might be a little harsh. Can he move in with his dad or grandpa who created this attitude?

This was me when late night Alegion real estate or VDX batches were a thing.
Doing it to make money is a bit different than doing it because you have to play monster hunter and video chat.

Yea I don't pay his shit, because I think that once again teaches him to be coddled. The curfew thing isn't so much a problem as he's antisocial for the most part it's that when he's here he's a flaming dickhead to everyone. I think I'd rather him leave and be gone for awhile to be honest with you.

Me and his mom both think his biggest issue is no one has knocked his head off for the way he talks to people so he thinks his dick attitude is perfectly acceptable, we honestly debate if he will get his ass beat in college.

His dad and grandpa live together with others they have no room for him...
