What does he mean when he talks about return rates? Is he talking about workers returning them because they suck, or something else?
I think he's saying that he's expecting to get more completed hits back than he is, because for some reason he doesn't understand that shite pay equals stagnant hits that only hobbyists will tend to.

Edit: Jaded @Jaded beat me to it.
Editedit: Wait, Jaded beat me to it? Clearly I need more coffee.. :wink:

My sister works at a daycare and they're gonna have a Santa visit them during the holiday season. And the guy really does look like Santa and he's good with kids and everything. Dude charges $150 an hour.

I should've gotten fat and grown a white beard instead of turking.
Looks like Santa. Those guys are usually GREAT.

He also mentions in his email that the hits are taking workers longer to do than expected. He has done these exact same hits before, so he knows how long they take (or should have).

Ugh, I hate doing stuff in the mornings. Had some crap to do at my kid's school...ended up just sitting in the office just bullshitting for 2 hours (kinda reminded me of High school)
I sure hope MTurk decides to put out today

I don't have the qual, thanks to C to the J @C to the J 's lengthy and hilarious commentary on them being incredibly underpaid, so I haven't seen the actual hit. If I had to guess it would be that people are opening the hit and then passing out from laughter. When they come to again, some are returning and some are like, "Well, it beats ScoutIt. 5/5 pay, would do again."...at least I'm pretty sure that's the case.

The best is that it says "starting with the next batch." Is he expecting that those 7000 odd hits that have been stagnant over the weekend are going to get done anytime soon?
