05/23 - Mr. Owl Monday!

[Mecca]

This makes me so sad. LOL We are stuck with AT&T out here. They are the ONLY provider in my area. And I barely scrape 6mb/s.....

Geez even I got better than that with At&t have they not put in new lines?

 

[Aydiarose]

slim pickins this morning looks like... the struggle is real!

I have the same quality with AT&T. Luckily our power company is in the process of running fiber optic lines throughout the town.

no... still old copper wiring out here. They probably won't anytime soon according to the rep that comes out here. Apparently they aren't worried about extremely rural areas lol

Call it what you want, but for many of us, working on MTurk is about meals and clothing, housing and bills. I'm not sitting in my chair, having someone deliver $20 bills to my front door. I'm working.

Also, good morning.

Good morning, and this is true. I just never feel like I work "enough" for other people to think I do work. This is the only job I can get right now, though, so I guess that makes sense...I just always feel guilty or like I'm not "doing enough" even if I spend 8+ hours a day doing the work here.

Anyone do this yet? Kinda afraid to try it. I can handle a lot but some things I'm just not ok with seeing.

Comcast can go die in a fire.

House owner here is supposed to get 50down/10up "minimum" at all times, and they've acknowledged that.
At best, I get 5 down/.5 up HARDWIRED.

But they won't fix it. She can't handle the phone stuff, they just make empty promises and NOTHING gets fixed. They've refused to talk to me even after she okays it and hands me the phone. It's infuriating, they're taking advantage of her. We're in town. 5 mins from major university. All wiring in the house is new. Router/Modem is new. It makes me so angry.

And it impacts my work. Particularly when internet goes down 15-18 times PER DAY. For at least 5-10 mins. ((*Edit: by day I mean 24 hour period. It's random times. But totals at least 1-3 hours a day trying to get it back up and running. Not an issue on our end, had that confirmed at least...))

no, next Monday is Memorial Day.

"Oh hey I'm mturk, I know you're doing Zoltars as fast as possible but do you mind if I log out real quick for no fucking reason? Thanks. Also I touched all the ice cubes in the fridge with my dirty hands, I hope that's cool".

 

[Mecca]

That's weird, the first guys who installed it gave me the wrong modem, I called and a new guy came out within a day and fixed everything to running like it's suppose to.

Basically told me the installers who are contractors are awful and don't care about quality.
