You know, I was just telling my husband the other day I was going to make a "turk resume" and list all my job duties/experience from hits in the style of IRL jobs. He said that if I turned it in with an application, someone who doesn't know about turk reading it would probably call the looney bin to have me committed for delusions of grandeur.

Eh I've heard of people doing it and it going well. Depending on your industry, people will know what this is.

And if they don't then you actually have a topic of conversation at an interview!

 

[Serial Mom]

Isn't it the default for anything that pays more than 15 cents? I hear it for pretty much everything

Edit: oh, it's an alarm for Panda Crazy if you catch a 15+ cent HIT.

Oh yeah, I guess it is. Guess I've been hoarding pennies for way too long.

All I got from these conversations is that @serverguy must be swimming in money.

so what do you do living? I labeled porn movies once via turk

 

[nopoopwarez]

This 7 dollar hit seems insanely underpaid. Probably going to throw it back. 15 Minutes in and I've barely finished reading the instructions.

 

[Dutchy]

uh ok man

 

[Kadauchi]

I say this to myself all the time... and I also see other posters saying it too... but...

Don't we have better options than that? I mean we're all pretty fucking smart. Kadauchi, you're one of the smartest and hardest working people I've met online and offline.

Is it possible we're missing some irl job with amazing pay with all the time we spend on mturk?

Most jobs also don't offer the freedom that mturk does and I do pretty well

Dang no, I just deleted it.

Should be in your browser history. Or if anyone is using MTS and looked at a Yeti today the hitsave will be in the detailed breakdown. I just want to check because from the looks of it, this script would this script would have worked for them https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/24650-mturk-radio-keybinds

 

[thedorchannel]

But that's completely up to you to engage and /or read. Just like it is your choice to mingle at a party or network on linkdin. It's not out of your hands. It might be harder for some, but it's not a given.

Oh I definitely agree, but not every community is like the mturk community. We are welcoming as fuck in this forum.

In 2012 I joined a group of children's writers and Illustrators called SCBWI thinking I would make some great artist friends and network. I paid over 300 dollars in fees to join that group... but a young geeky black guy is pretty much the opposite of their demographic.
They completely shunned me and wouldn't let me join any of their workshops because they kept saying they were "filled."

 

[TobyF]

uh ok man

Do they even post anymore? You never saw the porn hits? that would be weird to explain.

Yes, that would work, only missing -1 for the Bad Images.
