how did everyone do on mTurk in August?

$1277.66 + bonuses

I know I'm late but wanted to post this because I'm actually really proud of it. It's not anywhere near some of the bigger numbers, but this was my second month of "serious" turking (I made $20-$50 a year doing stupid shit like p9r's not knowing about this forum or even trying to look for tools). I was also putting 20 hours/week into my regular WAH job, helping my mom take care of my grandmother which is full-time work, and fighting with some other personal issues/depression. Anyway, I plan to hit $1300 by the end of the day. Trying to make this a full-time thing since I can't really get an irl job because of the situation with my grandmother (Alzheimer's and hospice, very sad and very taxing).

Phew, sorry for derailing. I'm kinda burnt out and it's been a rough day so I'm trying to bask in the small sense of accomplishment I'm currently feeling.

No way, you can totally feel proud. It took me forever to start doing well. Any accomplishment feels awesome.

That is a wonderful accomplishment! You deserve to be proud. Much love to you and your family. :heart::heart::heart:

It was better than July, at least? And if I could go back in time and kill April, I would.

Not only should you be proud of how much you've advanced in turking despite having to deal with all of those hardships. You should also be proud of how much you contribute to this place by posting hits and the times it takes to do them, despite some people being here way longer than you and not contributing anything. I don't want to name names or start anything I'm just saying.

Pretty sure this is why time travel isn't possible. People would kill off entire months.
