Just getting into the groove really. Doing 20 credits, trying to find that sweetspot for work while also going to school. Wish I could take night classes.

Looking for real work right now but I refuse to do retail/food service (I hate being someone's bitch. If I'm in a restaurant, I'm cooking. Basically any place that the motto 'the customer is always right' can be applied to, I don't want to work there)

This is discrimination of the highest degree.

i hate to break it to you but you're kinda being owned by mturk right now

I think your on to something, if you want masters you have to be a cat.

Honestly though, from what I understand it's a combination of the following:

*Has produced quality work
*Has produced a high quantity of work
*Being in an underfed demographic increases your odds of getting masters. So if you're a 20 something white man, or an indian man (disproportionately high number of Indian turkers for some reason) the waiting list is longer than if you were say, a black woman in her 40's, of which there are much less. Minority opinions are rarer and thus more valuable. Capitalism, yo.

I can quit whenever I want! (And then immediately come back)

I also don't have to smile.

@Kerek please tell me there's coffee ready to go in the mess hall.

There's always fresh coffee, or at worst coffee stored in an elephant that is still almost boiling hot.

Except that haven't given out Masters in over a year. Period.
