At number 16...feel like I'm limping along now lol.
These guys never ever reject right? I would be mildly displeased if I went through the whole thing and they decided my answers were too far off their predictions and reject me.

If you want a real answer:

It depends on the work. If the work is mentally draining, I'll probably skip it regardless of how well it pays. I'd rather just code and advance things there.

I'll still do penny batches (one radio then submit). With Turkernator I can get the majority of them over 15/hr, so I can cap really quick, and then get back to coding.

Most of my hourlies look like this:

Is Turkernator really worth the monthy price?

It depends on the nature of the work, but I think I generally consider anything in the $15-$25/hr range to be acceptable and anything higher to be actually good. I need a higher hourly on some things to make up for my unwillingness to do whatever it is that they're asking, which is why I generally don't even like to touch surveys that pay less than $20/hr. I also like higher hourlies because I feel like it needs to make up for all of the downtime that I have while I'm trying to find stuff to work on.
I only consider what it pays and whether I'm willing to do it. We're self-employed business owners. Our time means nothing. Time per pay only means something to folks who work for some one else , on the clock, for a monthly pay check. The boss man doesn't work on a clock. He works 'round the clock.......Time. The most precious thing of all. The most expensive thing to buy and the one thing most people never get paid for. Ask your mother, ask an artist, ask any housewife what she gets for her time...Ask me. I've been an artist for more than half a century and had to come to terms with what my time was worth to others. Nothing. Your time belongs to you and you alone. It's really not bought. It's stolen. Usually by others.

I caught 2 so I'll be returning one pretty quickly here...get ready.
Just be careful it doesn't lock you out if you return one. That would really suck on a $72 hit.

I'm not sure I was ready for this pill.

I think so. It's not, like, the magical be all end all of turk shit, but I get a lot out of it. What I get most out of it is how not connected I need to be to my computer. I just set up some stuff and let it fly. I'll check in on new hits and sometimes I have busier days than others, but a lot of times I just don't need to pay attention when nothing is happening (a lot lately.)
