02/04 - Mink Monday!

Dude and Guys drive me mad, but I come from a part of the UK where calling someone Duckie, Petal, Butt and Buttie is perfectly normal, so I ain't making waves.

...like, sandwich, that kind of butty?

How well do those cereal bar hits even pay? I did a 10 pt one and I calculated about $10/hr with bonus which is not bad for a Saturday since you can do them all day long. And I'm sure the Senior workers will get better and making the games shorter as it goes on. But they aren't like amazing or anything. No?

I wouldn't actually call it amazing for the hourly, and there is a chance you get pennies for that 20 minutes or whatever. But I have to sadly watch a bunch of juicy closed qual HITs go by all week so for me it's amazing!

Basically I think the daily is pretty okay even if the hourly is kind of meh, like you said.

Edit: the average is probably like $7 an hour

You're saying those giant bonuses only work out to $10/hr?
*feels less bad for having missed qual*

Aaaaaand microsoft somehow got past my resetting of their capability to force-reboot me when I have like 10 windows and 30 tabs open, so now I have to find another way to disable their bull**** after I get all my pieces picked back up and taped together.

Asshats.

One of many reasons why I won't use Windows 10.

I've been okay. I've been focusing on my #100DaysofCode and trying to keep positive and cutting out distractions. Hope you've been well too.

Doing well. Looking forward to seeing you on a more regular basis. Cheers!!!!!!!!

That's how mine worked out getting 10 points. I don't remember exactly what it was but I made $3.45. At least 20 minutes. 3.45 X 3 = 10.35/hr

Some people got upwards of $30 bonuses though. Would any of those people like to report times? I'm kinda curious now

Everyone could just follow @Jerami on twitter and check up on him like a creep... not that I do that.

I do.

Good to see you pop in here a bit though!

they played lots of games. i'm sure games can be shorter if the leader tries to take short turns and ends early. but they have a lot to do in those turns, too.

For those Miami Herald transcriptions, do you guys just type one endless block of word vomit without punctuation of any sort? No apostrophes, commas, periods? It's not clear if that what he means by special characters.

And if we don't type numbers or dates, but they're listing working hours, how's that work? It SAYS ''40 hrs week 9 am to 5 pm $350 per week 4 yrs exp" Am I supposed to just type "hrs week to per week yrs exp" or skip that whole part?

One of many reasons why I won't use Windows 10.

Like browsers, they're all bad but some are less bad than others.

Win10 is pretty good with two major flaws:

1) forced restarts on updates - I do not have a system that does not have a complex software loadout and so I have to disable this. Now I *may* have forgotten to reboot after disabling last time so this may be my fault, my gaming and file server systems have not yet force rebooted on me. I do updates manually.

2) The half-baked semi-tablet flat interface is... not Scottish. You can kind of work around this but they make it difficult and it's a sloppy, clumsy interface.

Several other smaller flaws, just on the balance less than the competition.

For everyone else, follow my code journey on twitter @codeandlonely .
EDIT I'm not lonely. It's a play on words. I thought it was funny because that's what it sounds like when you have a cold. "Code".

I'm the same way. That's grounds for immediate termination of employer. Thing that's bs is that once you're promised something like that, you start working as if you've already received it, which is great for them and annoying af to the employee(you). Good for you. Bullies.

Thank you!!!

I reported one on TV- 24:08, $0.15+ $4.05 bonus, $10.44/hour.
They did seem to be getting better/quicker last night, though.

Yeah that's definitely something I would like to see more of. That and more efficient movement.

The large bonuses are for multiple games. Each takes roughly 20minutes or less.
