- Bonus reward earned: $0.61

So, uh, last week was terrible. Turking (erm, trying to) with the 3 older kids home all day and the toddler running around is no joke (CURSE YOU SUMMER BREAK!). But, also, I spent a great deal of time studying for and taking the exams for a work-from-home position with Lionbridge. I passed and got a job as a "internet assessor" so there's that. But, I won't get a full paycheck from them until the end of July.

But you will get a job that doesn't involve turking and actual pay! I'm happy for you! I'm sure you can fill in the blanks here and there turking, but congrats on escaping this hell full time!

wasn't kads just a visual change?

I don't think Kad's has all of the features that DCI has in his. Kad started working on it before the SMS was put in etc, and the last I knew he hasn't updated it since then.

Different features. I like that Kaduchi's stops searching for specific hits/requesters once they "ding"

Well, it's still basically a pay-per-task job. I still have to accept different tasks, but I can do it on my own schedule. I bill them minutes, and can't charge them for more than the expected time. So if Task A takes me 15 minutes, but it's listed as 10 minutes, I can only bill them for 10 minutes. I'm expected to work at least 10 hours and not more than 20 a week. At $13.50 an hour. Not going to complain at all!

That works I guess! I'm glad you'll be able to do this, it'll definitely be more consistent than turking for sure. I hope it'll work out better for you and that you do great!

I did the full task and have no code. I don't think it matters either way.
