If you have taken this study before or can't enter your AMT ID properly, your submission will be rejected. Pretty standard. Just looks like a lot when listed like that.

I've been working as a freelance contractor through Field Nation this year. Some of the buyers (requesters on mturk) there have insane stipulations stated in their work orders. I think it comes from having been burned by too many bad providers (workers on mturk) in the past. Same here and everywhere else, but some good workers just click the Nope button now rather than deal with the perceived new risk when everything would probably still be just fine if you act normal. I know I avoid them when there are more specs listed about the type of clothes I can wear than the work I'm bidding on. They not only scare off the bad workers but many of the good workers too.
Just a thought and I'm rambling. True story, I worked at a Walmart today, as a subcontractor, possibly as a sub-subcontractor for all I know.

Did you ever do it through WorkMarket? I've noticed that clothing has become a bigger stipulation lately but, I think it's just because a lot of younger people have never worked in the business world and believe a brand new t-shirt is acceptable. It's never bothered me because I don't really worry about following rules. I'm good at it, if I agree with them. It makes me willing to accept more work that others would turn down. Anyway, if you haven't tried WorkMarket, and could use more freelance gigs, you should try it. They usually email me a couple of times a day for random things.

Project Baseline Aims to Ward Off Illness Before We Get Sick
Researchers are recruiting 10,000 volunteers to discover the earliest warning signs of cancer, heart disease and other killer

I signed up for Project Baseline at https://www.projectbaseline.com/

They don't have a location near me at this time, but I hope they will soon because the benefits are pretty terrific - it's free and they will pay you and give you health tech

Here's a link to the NY Times article about it https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/18/...-cancer-prevention-heart-disease-illness.html (You can read 10 articles a month free at NY Times)

I have not tried WorkMarket yet but I may add them. Field Nation is the first and still the largest for network and telecom stuff like I do. I've seen some guys online that do both and they say 90% of their work is from Field Nation and the rest is from WorkMarket. I am signed up on Techadox but they seem to have almost no work here in the middle of the USA. Still deciding if this will work long term. Lots of stress and really takes an entrepreneurial spirit, but can be very rewarding when it all works. Would be easier in a larger market than Iowa too!

I'm in a smaller market(Maine) so, I hear where you're coming from, literally. That said, I've found that WorkMarket is pretty solid in my area, if you're willing to do more general stuff. "Fishing" lines, POS and printer set-ups, etc. But, I've always found that because it's a smaller site, it feels like the pay is better. Also, because you're in a smaller market, once again, I find that that helps on WorkMarket because the people needing work usually know that there are less people who are willing to do the work, and tend to pay more. ime.

You should sign up. It's worth it, usually.

Ha ha, looks just like a Field Nation one but written better. I should get setup there too. I wanted to learn the Field Nation platform well first before branching out and I'm almost 100% there, so I suppose it's about time.

The work I did today was through Field Nation but the buyer's documents referenced WorkMarket, so they must use both platforms. Now I'm wondering how much I was underpaid...

Some recent, closed jobs are still visible on WorkMarket. You could go and do a search by company name. Also, if I'm not mistaken(it's been a while), WorkMarket is where you go to take the tests for CrowdSurf, if you want to work CrowdSurf through their own platform. CrowdSurf is kinda just ok, at best, on AMT but, it's much better on their own platform. Nobody realizes that even though they state all of those bonuses, they don't pay them on AMT. They only pay bonus on their own site. And, it's the bonuses that make them worth it. If you do a bunch, and are accurate, then you can work pretty steadily at around $8-10 an hour.
