I agree. I watched the woman who works in the laundromat running around, literally not figuratively, the whole time I was there, every time I was there, unless she was standing and folding someone's clothes at a fast clip. She literally gave herself a heart attack. For minimum wage. And there are CEOs whose work is less stressful and get paid millions of dollars for sitting there telling people how many other secretaries and vice presidents to hire, while the people who are doing the work, are working themselves to death. Being a CEO is not skilled work either, it's who they or their families knew, and it was, for their whole lives. It has nothing to do with skill. CEO salaries increased by an incredible margin relative to the cost of living in the last 100 years, while their employees' salaries did not. The economy needs to be revamped.
Work smarter not harder. Instead of running around learn a skill. There is a lot of skills you can learn in a couple years that will make you decent/great money. Some people will have all the luck, but that is life.

Learning a skill takes time. You don't have time if you need money. And that doesn't include the money it takes to learn a skill. You're right, of course, and it's not at you, it just grinds my gears how people say 'learn a skill!' like it's instant and free and will cure job problems overnight. (That still came off aggressive and it makes me sad, I don't want sad Patrick)

Working at minimum wage for two years might get you at 30k (where I live). Learning a skill in months can get you around that much money if not more within a year. Even if you have to rack up debt, the outcome will be more than worth it. Then, as time goes by you can learn a better skill that takes up more time, but gives you more money. Better than working minimum wage and living poor for the rest of your life.

It's cute how they list all their old HIT IDs and think that's going to be the most effective way to help workers decide if they've done previous HITs from them before.

Folding clothes requires more skill than making a phone call. Really. Our society does not value what we deem "women's work" and that's the whole source of this mess.

How often does the qual for the 10c hits come up?
that's a really good question. I don't know. I don't even remember when I got it. There are two different quals.. 2016 Centrality (which is the one I've got) and a 2017 version (I don't have that one). Someone else who pays more attention to quals may know for sure.
