I wish aveline @aveline would contact World Vision and make them come back
I kind of appreciate the fact they finally stopped emailing me every time they posted a batch that I was fully qualified for, aside from their terms and conditions... which they refused to correct even though they were the ones that fucked it up to begin with.

If stations are fixed those are probably easier. I've found a few more yearbooks now, but you have to dig in libraries for some, so it's kinda annoying

I don't know, I've been doing this since 2012, have master's and still can't come up with $20. Geez. I have the worst luck with trying to find Hits. Of course being at work all day doesn't help and trying to grab some then. All I get are the scraps. I really need the money.
I've been here 2 hrs and am at $22.80. No masters.

Looks like most people had a good day. Took the kid to story time after those morning pins. 2.2mi walk round trip. No biggie and still not terrible even at 7.5mo pregnant. We walk to Walgreens on the way back, get home, and surprise! She's missing a shoe :dead:. Walked almost the whole way back before finding it and then walked back home again. Totally killed the will to work.

I have only been here a few months and have seen you mention this many many times. Have you tried asking someone to mentor you? Do you use all the tools available to you? I know there are a few advice threads on the forum. At this point, after so many years of turking with the added benefit of having obtained Masters I'm pretty gobsmacked that you are having a difficult time reaching $20/day.

Granted, I know working and being away from the comp certainly don't help matters. When you are here are you using the forum to grab HITs? How about HitFinder to be alerted to newly added HITs or HitMonitor so you can follow your favorite requesters/batches?

I was wondering the same thing. most i find a few under alumni but only up until 2000 or so so didn't think i should use the link, but maybe I should...shoot, i was thinking of it as where to buy a current yearbook, which really doesn't make sense now that I think about it, that wouldn't be around until the end of the year.
oh well ive only done 2 or 3.

Yeah most of mine have ended around the late 2000s --- I think maybe that's legit though, I don't know if they even do yearbooks at most places now. Indiana Wesleyan didn't have one when I was there, or at least not that I remember, lol.

Most the ones I found are like this:

I figure the TV station ones are better, so when my queue empties I'll do those I think

yeah i emailed him. He'd put the Yearbook text in the tv station blanks as well. No big deal. Just remember which hits you're working on. I'm not surprised at so few college run tv stations. I am surprised at how many schools provide cable tv services to the dorm rooms themselves. kinda jealous actually.

well, I try to grab hits, but they are always gone, same when a new hit dings on Hit Scrapper, gone by the time I try to go to it.

Oh!! Ok, yeah I took a break when I saw the tv stations ones were Borked, came back and saw yearbooks first so did these. Didn't know they both were messed up. Now that I have the hang of yearbooks it's not that bad. Search College of Communications, library, or alumni. If none of those show up, it's none. Pretty easy
