09/21 - Wake Me Up on Wednesday!

[Jaded]

I did a bad bad thing last night. I bought a bicycle from a homeless person. I'm fairly certain it was stolen, but I wanted it real bad. I have a few bicycles, but I don't have one like this one. I scored a Miyata. It's an old Mountain bike made by the original Miyata manufacturer. The company began making bicycles after the Japanese were prohibited from making guns. The bike has a triple butted steel frame. I'm going to rebuild it, frame up. I took it for a ride today, and it is quite possibly the most responsive steel bike I have ever ridden, even with bad tires. This bike is more fun to ride than my road bike. I'm so happy, and yet so guilty.

Well, while you're riding it remember (if it is stolen) there is a sad person out there missing their great bike.

And automatically close the previous window.

I should have clarified, open in the same tab, opening and closing windows would be a ram problem I am thinking

Noblis from Sunday night are starting to reject a few.
Got 6 already.
Looks like they've gone to majority rules.

"Disagreed with other Turk workers on subject's presence in video"

i got 0 so far but i have sent some emails to them recently, they are done with videos for now until their next go around (who knows how long) and said in the future they will reject more since poor quality work is a problem mostly only on their video hits and not the other ones

Can you make a script for us to automatically open the link in an incognito window? :3

For zoltars? Just have two windows side by side and write some AHK to drag or copy the site link into the second window. Easy peasy.

Yea I have no problem with it.
With the pay rate like that, I'll take a few rejections.

Good morning folks

Woke up this morning to a call from a stranger telling me to come down the street. Why?? Because my mon, who i let stay with me until we figure out a living situation for her, had wrecked my car. I get down here and my car is totaled in a ditch. I'm at a lost for words because i told her not to drive it. Apparently her cigarette cravings were high enough for her to ignore what i told her. I don't know what i will do next, all i have is liabilit insurance to save money. The ppl called the police because she hit the mailbox.

Cops are gone already and I'm just standing here looking stupid waiting on the tow truck, which i barely can afford. Only bright side of this is my house is 2 blocks away.


Life sucks so much sometimes. I have no clue what to do next.

Almost the identical situation happened to me in the past. (Only my Dad) I know exactly what you are going thru.. Only my situation got WORSE after the accident.

Good morning folks! A lot of HIT's are going up. Please make sure to read directions. If I had to reject people for not following rejections last week when I ran the qualification survey for 1000, I would have had to reject 50%.

On another note, I need some dedicated people who WANT to and are willing to work on a HIT for an hour to an hour and a half. I am not going to tell you it is a fun task, but it isn't horrible either. You have to be honest and willing to provide feedback either good or bad. Any takers?
