Odd random late night thought... (that I may or may not be able to check on response to until the morning)

Have we ever thought about having some kind of once a year turker convention type thing? You know where we all get together at a hotel or somewhere and nerd out on our computers and maybe actually go out into the world around the people and find fun things to do. Just a random idea that I think could be fun and thought I'd share...it would be really cool to get to meet some of you in person :mallow
The idea's been thrown around now and then. I'd be down for it. Combine it with an event like Pax or Comic Con and it could be more fun too

It's been mentioned before. I think some of us are too... I don't want to say anti-social because clearly we're at least sociable enough to talk here but...we aren't good with real life people.

Thank you she's 14. She also has diabetes so she gets insulin shots twice a day but she still acts like a kitten.

Yea... I'm not very good with people either, but for some reason y'all seem cool :wink: Being somewhat anti-social seems to kinda go with this job. Just thinking I'd might make an exception to meet with "my own kind" so to speak. Not even sure when I'd be able to afford something like that, but wanted to see if it was at least a decent random idea.

Oh I will!
The shots don't hurt her at all in fact she comes to me when I have to give them to her. I think she knows that they help her feel better. Oh goodness, now I need to go cuddle her. lol

I had the new Mturk Suite export here, but decided I like today better with the bonuses added. :D :ahhh:

Today's Projected Earnings: $77.10 + Bonuses: $6.18 = $83.28

Comic Con SD?

If you combined that with a turker get together, I just might be persuaded to drive six hours.

There are places to find your kind. In the early days of "cons" that was a good place. Now most have gone mainstream. However, we could start a "turk-con" and all cosplay our favorite requesters.
