I think I somehow missed the link to the 3rd part of the SAMS survey HIT. Does anyone happen to have the link to it?

I think I might take a Udemy class on transcription. I never really tried it,but I hear some people make big bank on it.
The Udemy classes are usually like $10, so I might just get one to see if I like doing transcribing.

There's not really anything to learn about transcription, you basically just have to read the guidelines for whoever you work for and follow those. It's awful work honestly, god bless anyone who makes their living off of it.

I bought little wrist brace thingies when I was doing transcription. I realized i really, really hate the sound of people talking so I had to stop. Still useful though.

I have one for each wrist... but I hate them. I guess I was hoping for an infomercial level "You won't believe how great this one trick is! Doctors HATE HIM!" kind of answer. Like "Oh I rub onions on my wrists at night and they never hurt" but yes I will get my braces out of the drawer they're rotting away in.

shits and giggles but smooshed together and missing a few letters.

A couple months ago I *really* tried to get into transcription.

No matter how often I read the rules and tried to do exactly as asked, I couldn't pass tests.

My last one was 06/20 as well, so yeah I think it's a different one.

Solid answer. I do yoga, don't take vitamins, and have been uber lazy since winter so maybe getting some more activity will help my poor stupid wrists. Thank you for answering!

I use kinesotape. I have pretty brutal carpal tunnel. I ride horses/ do farm chores most days a week, I do yoga, I eat well (mostly) take vitamins...but work 40/hours a week at a desk then spend most of my free time on my laptop turking. I had zero wrists problems before turking. yayyy

We share the same birthday. Happy birthday. The biggest problem I've had today (besides not wanting to turk on my Bday) is remembering to change my age on surveys).

The instructions and last page of the main/long survey state that there's another section which takes 30 minutes. It's not the follow-up for $15.

I read through the "last" page where you click a button to get a code, but I didn't get a link to the final 30 minute section for this survey. I'm not sure if I missed the link or some redirect at the end isn't working. When I clicked the next button it just says blah blah thank you.

It was on the page before the last page. You missed the link.
