(Only one speaker actually said to treat workers fairly, as humans, and know that some of them are doing this work for a living and you should respect that.)
Good thing I'm a lizard person.

But there are people who absolutely must turk and will take any/all work because they need to scrape as much as they can together to make their ends meet. Sadly, it's a demographic that's easily exploitable.
the funny thing is, if you NEED mturk in order to make a living, you're better off not doing crappy hits and waiting for something that pays good. Chances are if you're hamming a bunch of horrible hits, you'll miss something amazing because it got snatched up while you were not paying attention

When you are grinding on OCMP5 and want to quit so bad, but you can't because you remember you have kids to feed and bills to pay, so you wipe away the sweat and tears and you keep going and going, and they never stop....

I have only done 120 so far today :shoot:

I believe electrolyte @electrolyte said the estimate was accurate
so yea...stay away
Yeah, time estimate is pretty accurate since it's timed steps. It wasn't the worst thing I've ever done (the HIT was super simple) but it drags onnnnnnnn.....
