Well that was a pleasant surprise.
Wow! Do you think it was a typo? Haha, I ask because he gave me a $1.50 bonus today.

I'm guessing a raffle. I don't even remember it, though...
It wasn't today, was it? I see this one "Complete a preliminary sorting task, then answer a survey about work teams & leadership, must be 21+ with leadership experience" for .10 but it has a $1.50 bonus and it is already closed :(

nope. I live on long island. $13 one way on the lirr.
Theres no way I would drive in manhattan.
Funny that we both were talking about the same city.


its kinda chilly today though
Dude, you live so far away. I live in Brooklyn so it is easier for me to travel around the boroughs.
Driving around in manhattan isn't too bad as long as can find a place to park.

Well once one gets the email the bonus is paid and it's gone from the requesters account. The only thing one could really do is ask for someone to give it back, but that would have to be done through like paypal or something. But I don't think there's any real obligation to.

I would give it back...it's clearly a typo and I wouldn't want someone to have to have it come out of their pocket.
