Congrats on the new job! Are you going to quit turking entirely?

Yeah, probably won't be doing mturk at all anymore. I never did it all of the time as you can see by 2800 HITs in over 1 year.

Yeah, I have 2 monitors atm, thinking about adding a third and using monitor arms too. Probably need to work on the computer itself first. It's my boyfriend's old gaming rig so it's solid but definitely needs some work.

Monitor arms are good. I have a few. This is my fave atm. It's what I'm using right now.(plus an extra arm)

EDIT You can put a laptop where the pencil tray is. I do.

I ended up with 101, but others might trickle in while I'm on this cigarette break.

 

[KillMoles]

Congrats!!! What are you going to be doing?

Electronics tech at a medical facility, basically all of the electronic systems that keep a hospital running. I'm super excited and hope it turns out well.

Is this survey negging me?

That survey took the red pill.

Congrats. It's nice to supplement your income with Turk when you can, still!

Pretty sure a lot of people have. Especially people who do this a lot. Multiple screens is more effective, for some. I don't use PandaCrazy so, not sure what it needs, resource-wise. But, I also turk on a second machine that only has 3gigs of RAM. It's 10 years old. It still does fine, excluding Unity or Inquisit HITs.

Nice. I believe this rig has 8gb of RAM but if I'm running PandaCrazy with a LOT of different HITs it still crashes--boyfriend says we may have to upgrade graphics card and eventually motherboard to really get it up to speed. I have the Monoprice single arms at work right now and they're fine, but I'll def look into this one too.

I always tell people to stop in every now and then and do an hour of higher paying stuff. Then just let it build up in Payments and use it for buying stuff on Amazon.

I like this one because it's also a keyboard tray and comes with a wall mount for the PC case too. Best part, of course, is the sit-stand bit.

Ewww cigarettes...... I'm going outside to have my cigarette break now....

I've never been able to get a good hourly rate here like most of you guys.

 

[Despairagus]

I miss smoking. Smoke a cancer stick for me, pls.

 

[Despairagus]

But we will miss you if you vanish forever.

 

[booboo33]

yep, 1 34" monitor, 2 27" monitors, mainly so I can game and turk at the same time

Could you, or anyone here, recommend an "affordable" laptop or desktop gaming computer for a 12 year old? My nephew wants one for Hanukkah/Christmas. Is it possible to get one for around 600.00?

 

[SmolAliens]

I Turk to supplement my FT job and for me hourly rate isn't necessarily paramount because I have a huge impulsive spending problem. $3 an hour is a lot better than spending $30 in an hour going out of the house. Luckily I've been doing better than $3 lately

I spend way more time here on the forum than I do actually turking as it is. We'll see what happens after I start work.
