We are moving to a cheaper but larger home here soon. We both own our cars so that's not an issue and this new home we are looking at has a well so there goes the water bill. Planning on saving up to get solar when we can and that pays for itself if you put it in the right spot in something like 2 years. We already super garden and plan on taking what we can from the planted seeds and making a larger garden so as to cut that food bill. Love finding new ways to save money!
It's nice to work for yourself I was an over-the-road truck driver for 20 years and I hated it for about 15 years of it, but the money was really good and it paid this house off and if I wanted to I could pick up a phone and it would take me 5 minutes to get another job, I recorded two and a half million accident free miles in my career ,but I think I've done enough.

How many children? You're going to love running out of water. And if it doesn't rain for a while. Oh dear. Don't think you don't have a water bill until you have to ship it in to take a shower.

I'm pretty sure most turkers don't take showers anyway.

Well I won't say that's good because you probably want them eventually but water wells and kids don't mix. Two people barely mix with water wells but if you're careful and don't mind being limited on when you do laundry you'll be fine. Oh, how I remember days when the well was low and we had to go in town to the laundry mat.

My first few days were basically like this;

In my first actual days of turking I made like maybe 30 cents?
but;
Look at me now with all this time to just shenanigans.
Oh no doubt! I joined MTG a few days later and some very kind peeps like C to the J @C to the J helped me out. That is why I wanted to be a Mentor to help new turkers find the tools they need.

So I thought of a fun idea, how about everyone tell a quick story about their few first days on Mturk :)
Looked at the site, told my gf it was shit. Saw a reddit ama of a dude making 2k+ a month doing transcription work and decided I'd give it another go. Found mturkforum, lotkrotan's guides and went from there.

It mostly consisted of productrnr porn though.

My story was a bit of a nightmare.. On my second day I tried a batch. I didn't know about scripts let alone Turkopitcon ratings. I saw this batch and did 31 hits. I felt so happy and confident. The next day I saw 31 rejects my rating tanked to near 75 percent. I nearly freaked out and thought I should quit. To make matters worst I started noticing most hits you had to have a 90 percent or higher rating along with 500 hits approved to do them. But though it was grueling p9r's rescued me and after what seemed liked a thousand one centers done I finally brought up my rating. Phew it was crazy!!!
