Just realized I never got a response about that 6 dollar HIT that didn't work yesterday. A pox on their house.

I just chalk it up to the "rainy day qual" for those days that you aren't making shit and ur not catching shit you can just sit back and do these to collect ur thoughts so you don't bang ur head into a wall.


Also you never know the hits are going anywhere as they have been up since yesterday when the qual first came out and no one is doing them so he could potentially raise the pay.

He did say that he is going to be spending about 50k on turk.
That's always my thinking too. I go ahead and get the qual even if I don't think I will necessarily work on the HIT's, because sometimes new requesters need a learning period. At first the pay is too low, people write the requester off and don't get the qual, then they raise the pay and you can go in with less competition and get some decent paying work, just by being patient.

Hi- thanks for doing my qualification HIT! You answered the multiple choice questions correctly :) please wait while I look at your written question..."

Thanks, I needed a bit of social anxiety about being judged this afternoon Rowan
He didn't like my multiple choice answer, but liked my written questions and manually accepted me. I have done maybe 4 of these since getting the qual yesterday. They are tedious hits, although when I hide the labels, it's easier to think. I just can't type brackets and labels fast enough I guess to make them worth .40.

Things became much more relaxing when I set my goal at negative 5 a day.

Then the rent came due...
I told my landlady that I work the Amazon Mtucks while looking for a job. Not only did she not charge me rent, she gave me money.

I macro'd the "[person" so all I have to actually type is the number and the close bracket. Saves me a few seconds but still not an amazing hourly. Okay filler, though.

I don't know how to find qual tests anymore.
I went to the HIT page and typed in "identify unusual", clicked to expand and found "take test." I didn't think to save the direct link. I'm only moderately helpful.

Where did you type "identify unusual"?
