Since the girlfriend had to change work schedules and started working from home...we have been trying to change our sleep pattern. Used to go to bed at 6am and wake up at noon and she worked second shift and i turked during the afternoon/evening. Now its wake up at 8am...but every single night this has been me.

A ton of writing and thinking. It's too early for that.

 

[loki3404]

Writing.

I think we need a writing scale.

"Write a sentence about" <----------------------------------------------->"War and Peace."

 

[Squatty]

Why does everything look horrible today?

Scale would start with the Vietnam HIT.

Doesn't count. I was rejected

 

[GMan42]

Just caught a $125 data entry HIT that states right up front that it takes an estimated 50 hours.

Not for nothing, but if I was gonna pay $2.50/hr as a requester, I sure as hell wouldn't admit it on the HIT page. Damn thankful they did, though, saves me the time of trying it out.

I wound up emailing the requester to ask if the time estimate was a typo, and got this response (emphasis mine):

Thanks for your question. The rate of $125 for the entire project was determined primarily off of the standard mTurk HIT rate ($1 per hour of work) and the hours we estimated (~50) the project could take. With the bonus, the project would be approximately 3x the standard mTurk project rate. The project will likely take less than 50 hours, however, as we posted a conservative estimate.

I...uh...

I...uh...

I'd ask them to link you where it that says that is the "standard MTurk HIT rate". They won't be able to because such a link doesn't exist, but I'd love to hear their response.
