Huh, my HIT description says must have been born in China. I think there are different versions and maybe they mixed it up???

Okay, guys, good news!

This is William's latest reply to me:

"Ok thank you very much for the in-depth reply. We're rescinding rejections now and I'm approving assignments on the fly for our new batch so people will feel more comfortable."

Do we need to contact him for rejection reversal? Mine are still on the dashboard.

Hm. Yes, it might not be a bad idea. Mention that you were talking about it on the the MTC forum and that WalkingEmphasis (told him my forum name) was sharing the emails with everyone because it was such good news that the rejections were getting reversed and you were wondering when that might go through. @PhantomCatt you should probably do it, too.

I know @sryan66611 got his reversed and mine was reversed as well.

Great News!!!! My hubby got the job at Bass Pro Shop!!!



While I love turking, I'm so thankful the bills aren't all on me anymore!!! Turk can definitely NOT support a family of 4! But I gave it my all, and with a few other side tricks I had up my sleeve we somehow survived Now I've just got to make it through the next few weeks until his paychecks start coming in and work on a plan of attack for all the debt that was accumulated through this mess.

I also want to take a min to thank all of the wonderful people on Mturk Crowd. You guys are such an amazing group and I am so lucky to be a part of the craziness here! Thank you to everyone that posted hits, humor, and words of encouragement through the tough times. Y'all helped me stay strong and focused so I could keep the lights on, food on the table, and even get a few small summer treats for my kiddos. I couldn't have done it without your help!! I keep sitting here trying to think of the perfect words to express my thanks, but I'm so overwhelmed with gratitude I'm truly at a loss for words that can express what I'm feeling. Just know that I consider y'all more than work friends, y'all are family!

Super late on this because I lucked into a tiny scared money batch, but wooooooohoooo! That's fantastic news and really going to help with stress levels and such. We love you too, and we hope you'll still be sticking around even after you don't have to turk, but just want to turk a bit and shenan with us.

I'm almost at 24 hours without a cigarette. Kinda want one, kinda don't. Just enjoying this beer rn

Nah, you got this! You can go 24 hours more, and then another 24 hours. Just take it one day or even one second at a time. For the panic attacks, when you feel that tightness in your chest start, breath in slowly for 3 seconds, hold for 3, exhale slowly for 3, and hold for 3. Repeat until the feeling passes. It's called squared breathing and it's helped me stop the fuckers in their tracks before the head spins and "oh god, I'm dying" kicks in. Get a cheap package of plastic straws from Dollar Tree/other dollar store and chew, chew, chew when that oral fixation feels out of control. Baby carrots are good, too. Keep your fingers busy, and your mind too. You can do it! I'm on...a month I think of not smoking. (I stopped counting/forgot to count.) It does get easier. Also like someone else said, watch your triggers for it. For me, it was that first cup of coffee in the morning and the fact that my roommate still smokes like a chimney, which still makes me gnash my teeth at times. Good luck and I hope your quit is successful!

Oh, it's a thing.

You eat one and the next thing you know the whole bag is gone as well as your shame.

I did not need to know these exist, but now I need them. Tiramisu is my Kryptonite, and the one thing I refuse to learn how to make so I don't end up weighing 600 lbs.
