Hey, I went to college.

I have a music degree.

Thus, I work on mturk. :whistle:

hey, me too! :thumbup:

 

[Devil_Dawg]

Yeah. It just sucks cause I love Costco. It doesnt help that I am a tad bit socially akward. I told them my dream position was driving the forklifts in the warehouse.

lest you didn't say scrubbing the tiolets

I'm a little preoccupied today. My house is getting all new plumbing and they're ripping down the bathroom walls at the moment. IT'S PRETTY NOISY.

according to other forums, this is the best hit in mturk history

So.. ASIN has a lot of Internal Use HITs up... but they still haven't approved the batch from yesterday. I guess they're gonna go the whole AA time. :| Lame.

Also, our CostCo membership expired last month and we're too broke to renew. ;_;

Alsoalso... it's dead this afternoon, isn't it? Kiddo had her 1 year well-visit this morning, so that took up all my free time during the busy period. ;_;

Exactly. I have a degree in English (literature) with a minor in Gender Studies. My company (because I quit pursuing English when I realized tenured professor positions at universities were like magical unicorns these days and joined the workforce instead of continuing in grad school for English) paid for my MBA which I completed 2 years ago. In return, I had to commit to staying here, in the same crappy position (little upward mobility) for 2 years. So... I work this job, a part time seasonal job, and do MTurk. I am blessed to have no student debt. Don't take on a penny more of student debt unless you are guaranteed a lucrative career! Someone out there will pay for your education if you hustle for them.

pretty much. the days of just getting a degree in stuff just for kicks are over with how expensive they are. Get into something that's easy to start the income rolling

 

[El Pablo]

Getting good paying jobs is a lot of the time a matter of who you know vs. any skill set.

i'd look into getting into a career first before the masters. masters programs don't take too long to complete even when you're working on the side and most companies pay for it since you'll be a more "valuable" worker. That's what i'm looking into doing after a few more years in the workforce

Dont wait to long, GRE kicked my ass and I thought I was pretty hot shit lol you forget a lot real quick when you don't use it.

I thought that too, which is why I returned it, but apparently after some research on the other forums, its just as worth it

Err, but you've worked with the admins.

The admins here are very skilled at what they do.
I can say without reserve that @kryssyy is the most competent pizza eater I've ever seen.

@Jaded has to be the most thorough procrastinator I've ever had the pleasure of getting lazy with.

All I need to say about @electrolyte is:

And then theres @aveline. Quite possibly the most driven boycotter I've ever known. She's been picketing the mturk login page for years... I'm certain one of these days they will notice her, give in to her demands, and she will be able to get back to work like nothing ever happened. (because it wont)

...said every idiot I work with

Seriously I hate the people that say people only get jobs because they "know people". Sure it helps, but doesn't necessarily guarantee you a job. I got the job I have because I had an AA, but also because I had a fuck-ton of experience. I didn't know anybody in the hiring process and fuck it, I'm a good interviewee.

It's not always who you know. I know people who have Masters and can't get degrees because they A. Have no experience or internships and B. Have poor people skills.

 

[Princess Gina Marie]

I have a relative who has a masters in business management... quite possibly the most incompetent middle manager i've ever seen.

I see what you're suggesting.
