Is that really fantastic pay in India (and all non-us) or is it just the only thing they have available? I think there's a big difference there. 2.50/hr is not fantastic for anyone. (But I do get what you meant. If i had no option and was hungry or whatnot I'd probably work for 2.50/hr too.)
Plus a lot of those that are being discussed also say that they can only be done by people in the US. So that's a thing too.

I'm not super invested in it either as I still have a queue but it was a thought I just had to throw out.

Like sometimes when I see peoples time estimates I'm like WTF where you doing? Are you reading at a 1st grade level here?
Yeah, especially. That HIT in particular is terrible if you aren't a very quick typist since it's 600 data entries in excel. There's no way it should take someone 2 hours, though.

1 USD is like 60 rupees. "India is a lower-middle income country, and the average worker makes about 720 American dollars per year, or about 2 dollars per day." So yeah, it kind of actually is.

I actually asked one of the workers here from india. when I first signed up. name escapes me. he could eat really great on that kind of wage. what he was eating? I dunno. but that's what I was basing it off of pretty much.

/me shrugs.

That doesn't seem fantastic but I'm not gonna judge.

edit: I don't think I got my point across. 2.5/hr might be livable but that doesn't make it fantastic.
