Being here 18 hours a day sounds like losing.

We win the battle but lose the war for our sanity.

I need to make enough this week to pay some shit, and get our Etsy idea going...
So if the Turkfairies could like, get off their asses...that'd be great.

 

[JenniLeigh]

saw some boobs in the brianZ.
so I guess today isn't that bad, so far

Are boobs hard to come by?

The problem with saying something like that for me is everyone gets dollar sign floating in their eyes and they want me to be their full-time personal coach to the world of turking, that is until they actually try it, hate it and go tell everyone how much what I do sucks.

Same here, but I tell them to submit an application and get approved (since Amazon doesn't approve all that many new turkers it seems). I also mention they have to give Amazon their SSN (that scares a few off). Then if they're still wanting to join, I tell them there is no way to "coach" anyone as each person has to find their own groove and preferred hits, but I would be happy to send them a link to a forum that I used to start learning what works for me.

It's a nice way of saying, "Dude, I learned it without a personal coach, you can, too."

 

[C to the J]

Ahem. I think I could out-x-hours-a-day-turking most of you!

Very true.
My stamina is in the shitter, has been since I "quit" caffeine.

But I'm always keeping an eye out for work as long as I'm awake.

any day I see some nice boobs will ADD to the day, instead of detracting from it.

 

[An Island in the Sun]

I just tell them it's none of their damn business and leave it at that. Usually works for me, but I'm a big guy.

Granmum Nana, it's none of your damn business!

You can google them. You can have a great day EVERY day.
You're welcome.

It kind of is. Unless the day is on fire, then there's a sense of diminishing return on time spent to cash money earned. And yeah, there's the whole thing where interacting socially becomes something alien after watching Hitfinder for a straight week.

 

[ALinAL]

You either have to be here 18 hours a day like me and @It's Gamera! or you get nothing, you lose.

Yeah, Hit Finder and PC is always on and I sleep in two and three hour blocks, arranged around slow periods.
Life sucks, but at least I don't have a boss.

 

[Binxybaby]

In regards to the poll, I put socks on before bed because my feet are almost always cold. Then I take them off because they usually make me hot. I don't normally fall asleep with them on tho, if I do its by accident lol

I made weekly goal last night, this with the help of Red Bulls, the rain outside, and my self-loathing.

Thank you jeebus.

It's not as nice if you have to search for it instead of getting an unexpected surprise where it's not expected.

I'm alive, or something resembling alive at least. Surgery went well and they think they got all the infected bone out, there is a little infection left in surrounding tissues so no sutures yet. I wouldn't say it is great, but I could feel worse. Thank you to those who wished me well and once the prosthetic and teeth are in I'll post a pic....I don't have the guts to put one today.

What did you have done? Sounds pretty major, I hope you are feeling okay.

Soften that up by using Darn and it should work.

wow, I just noticed the poll

There are only two times when I'm not wearing socks

• in the shower
• when I'm changing from one pair of socks to another
