Wouldn't suck so bad if there wasn't a 90% chance of the HITs being garbage. And if they magically fit into the 10% decent HITs category, of those HITs not disappearing in a week or two.

Working on a long qual HIT is such a gamble.

Sometimes the requester even pulls the qual test right before you submit it

Yeah and the last series started out at 3.00 and deteriorated down to .20. I didn't mind that too much, since they sometimes paid for literally doing nothing. But anything with this type of confusing obfuscating rules makes me doubt the work. It reminds me of filling out a government form. You get the feeling that the purpose is to confuse. I've reached that point in my life where if some one annoys me too much, I shut them down.

all I see on mturk is bad paying batches. It baffles me that in 2019 we still cant get a livable wage

Gotta side hustle as a turker in the summer to make it all balance out.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks so.


But I've also been working more irl and missing qual hits so it's understandable.

That page still links to a 404, not sure why.

Found this though, https://www.medtronicdiabetes.com/customer-support/product-and-service-updates/notice11-letter

its such a meme that an insulin pump can get hacked.

This is my first summer so its also the best summer I've had. Just glad to be able to make an easy $20 a day to help with my main source of income.

And before that, last summer was the worst summer.

I'm pretty sure it's going to keep going like that unfortunately.

5 years from now we'll be pandaing 10 cent surveys.

Somebody tell me this morning was bad because I slept in until now....

-.-

I hit my average PE by now (instead of trying into the evening) so I'd say it's better than most days lately thanks to batches.

200-300$ more and this will actually be my best month on mturk
i'm not going to make 300$ before the end of the month unless something crazy happens
and it definitely doesn't feel like one of my highest months
but that's what the numbers say

Not my best month but this is actually my best quarter in almost 3 years.

I think that massive pew week had a pretty healthy impact on that though.

hover over the like button and it gives you options

could use a "hug" button in the like options so you don't have to waste a message posting the hug emoji.

Happy Friday out there

do you have AC?

Would be sweet to go back in time a few years and crush mturk while everyone else is using turk alert and page monitor. Probably not the best use of a time machine though I guess.
