How did the kitchen HITs work out for you?

I do about $10/h on them with script... it's modified from whoever wrote the one with the big pink button on.
I loves it I do.

[Blakkat]

forget all that noise, give me a big ol' batch of the $1 MLData's that dropped earlier

Stupid me, I had a bunch in my queue and just did one, returned the rest. It was way too easy, and I thought it must be a mistake -and would be sure to get rejected.

 

[LucyO]

Does anyone know how long it takes for MLData to pay?

 

[Bolbor]

Does anyone know how long it takes for MLData to pay?

5~ days or so, not sure if that's consistent for every one of their HITs.

 

[rsmath]

I'd settle for Enron emails.

I miss those. Fascinating to see the kinds of things suits at big companies talk about.

 

[rsmath]

a week? I've been doing a ton of their penny hits and it seems like it is taking forever to approve. I have no worries about rejections but they have been keeping me from 5K for many days now.

Yeah, worrying about rejections will cost you money. If the money's good, go for it, mass rejections are very rare so the risk is small.

Because being rejected feels shitty a lot of turkers react the same way you did. But if you do all of the "scared money" batches you come across, even if a few do end up getting rejected, you end up winning big in the long run. Just think about it statistically and don't let rejection anxiety hold you back.

[aveline]

I like to think that the whole reason you're so focused on Appen these days is because the rejection anxiety on mturk has become more than you can handle.

Thanks, I knew it was Sarahsomething xxx

Super important point you're making!

For me, this realization was a bigger turning point than me getting the masters qual.

This is not advocating hammering out 2000 non-master's sketchy penny HITs with super vague instructions... It's more of a statement that one shouldn't let TV and TO reviews and reports of rejections scare them off of a batch that's clearly going to net $30-50/hour. I think anything $30+/hour is worth the risk of rejections... but then one must correspondingly hammer out enough numbers HITs to build that buffer against multiple rejections.
