No drug qualification for me either.

not going to lie, i feel so lost after taking a 2 year break from mturk. used to rely on a9s in the afternoon for some easy batch work and wallstreets. now i feel like its a crapshoot with surveys and easy batches

It definitely feels a bit more rough to me than it used to, but there's still money to be made. You just can't be as choosy as you once could. A single batch could make or break a day, so you kinda always have to make sure you're on it when something posts.

Time: 15:52

10th email from my daughter's school about a Thursday night presentation - how to stay calm with a teen.
They say: my apologies for such frequent emails regarding this event,
but it's how we get you to respond!!

That's actually somewhat stunning in it's honesty.

It's funny. She didn't even steal the wine, since she would have had to dispose of the pringles and transfer it.
"Person Drinks "Road Soda"! News at 11."

Don't know. Sounds like she was shop-lifting it by carrying it out of the store concealed in her body...'course she hadn't actually left the store at that time. Would it be shop-lifting if you lived in the store?..It's a ''big box store'', isn't it?......I can see the book now: I lived in a box in the Walmart.

That's about the only thing I didn't mention or refer to. I also, in some many words, referred to how cheap they were when it came to helping us instead of hindering us.

I also included another comment, which is how I could tell it was a canned email. I just feel like it's one of those cases where no contact would have been better than a generic response. It also gave off a "placate" kind of vibe, as if they don't really want our feedback, but they're willing to listen to it for our sake.

It's a different world now. Tribes have formed. Turkers fall off every day, unable to sustain themselves with the meager pennies. We eat their carcasses to keep alive. It's brutal.

They're all gone now.... long gone.........

Has anyone discerned any "give" on the part of AMT with regard to our weekly reports? I had an email from them this morning and felt compelled to respond to it, the nits.

I got the thanks for your feedback email... This "Please note that all the information “Weekly Worker Activity Report” contained is available on your Worker dashboard, which you can review here: https://worker.mturk.com/dashboard" is ridiculous. All of the information for 45 days is available, sure... and we just have to work out which days are what week, add up whatever earnings it recorded for the days, and then somehow save it so that it looks officially like a record (for those of us who need the proof of income). Or pore through our external, third party database if we've lost whatever section of days we need, if we even have a third party database. Bleh... I have no idea what their real agenda for dumping the reports is, but I don't get the feeling they're going to change their minds. I responded to the email, though...

I can't get to those, Some nonsense about "More Authentication Required," and I'm not trusting what I see when I try and do that. Boy, does this day really, really, really suck so far.

It just has you relog into Amazon right there. Not a big deal, makes me do it every time. I don't even have to type password. It already remembers it.

How long roughly was the completion time if anyone knows?

It was an hour (possibly more but I'm afraid to look) of torture. I knew what I was getting myself into, but I'm stubborn and I regretted it the whole way through.
