Three bedroom house, wife and four kids. Rent is $650 plus utilities. I live in rural Ohio. lol



Honestly, It was two days of grueling hell. Each CEO was either not on wikipedia or linkedin and had to investigate multiple websites to find the into. Did 400 the first day and then the last 100 the next. Also a percentage breakdown of each Major and each undergrad degree type.

The pay was still worth it, but just imagine a batch, never ending, of the same exact thing over and over and over and over for two days. I had a migraine by the end of day one and then I caught a cold on day two.

That's pretty much all the details. :)
That's not bad for a 3 bedroom. When I was in southern Indiana you were lucky to find a 3 bedroom for less than 750

So after sipping my coffee for the past hour and trying to figure out these rejections a bunch of us got from Clinic I came to the following conclusion.

Hold on to your seats cause it's a doozy. Squatty @Squatty made a script thread helping us noobies learn to code a little. Squatty used Clinic for the code base specifically for those hits.

I'll be back in four hours after I can figure out how they sabatoged the code.


Why squatty, why?
huh. mine were just fine. oh cuz ahk. that i always felt like
such a loser using. no more. :wink:

I'm 99% sure it was just too fast. I know the pattern for their attention checks so it wasn't that. Had to have been speed. Or squatty

1 bedroom apartments in my building here in San Diego go for something close to 1150 or 1200 a month. Small apartment, thin walls, can see and hear all your neighbors, busy and noisy traffic and moderate-high crime area.

I used one but I made my own. Basically did the same stuff that one does. I doubt they sabotaged the script even though my evil side would laugh. Their reputation on the forum would be dirt after that point. I'm pretty sure folks just used the script over zealously and missed some attention checks that were moved around.
