Or the new trend of disappearing pages. I prefer the way Prolific ends the studies so you don't even have to copy a code.

i hate the way prolific does it because i never know for sure if the redirect will work. i always right click and open the link in a new tab so I have the completion code that's in the URL if it doesn't work.

I get that. But one right click is still easier than possibly missing it completely and having to copy/paste for me.

If anyone lives up north, next few days should have quite the auroras.

If anyone lives down southeast, maybe you should go up north.

Did anyone else get the Social Lab e-mail? Did it end unexpectedly or was I just really (un)lucky?

Good morning.



Why?

I've been turking as my basically full time job for a couple of years now (along with other little things here and there, online and off). IMO there are big positives to turking as a job once there's enough income to live off of, but there's also big negatives compared to more normal jobs. Some of my irl friends I complain to who know what I do really well say I should get a different job because the negatives aren't worth it, and then turk as a side thing if I want. But it's hard. No degree and my specialty skillset (which isn't related to computers or the internet) is very particular and there are no jobs anywhere near where I live now that would need it. And it's difficult to put turking on a resume in a way employers would understand or even respect, so I also have what to them would look like an employment gap. So I expect that to find any decent non-turking job would be very difficult at the moment. Because of what I make with turking on average and because with turk I can work extra hours as much as I want to make more if I need it (and because it's easier to make a better hourly on turk the more time you have ready to jump and work the good stuff when it comes along), the job would have to be something I wouldn't hate, not a dead end, and pay at least say $15/hr but preferably more.

But after doing it for years, turking somehow still feels 'temporary' to me. It doesn't feel stable or secure and even after making inroads to some of the better stuff on turk (quals, masters, etc.) it still doesn't feel any safer and still feels like hustling every day to make a buck. I mean, can you guys who do this as your job imagine still doing this in ten years?

I was only kidding (I joke around a lot!). I did not have a job interview. Like you though, I see turk as a stepping stone until I can get my foot in the door regarding what I actually want to do for a living.

I wanted to like the duplicate though. It was better the second time.

I hate when they put the code in Inquisit and you can't copy & paste it.

They should pay $10 more for doing that.
