You know you're a turker when...

[jessinchicago]

Within about five seconds you can determine whether or not:
- You feel satisfied with yourself
- At times you think you are no good at all
- You have a number of good qualities
- You are able to do things as well as most people
- You do or do not have much to be proud of
- You do or do not certainly feel useless at times
- You feel that you are a person of worth, at least on an equal plane with others
- You wish you could have more respect for yourself
- You feel like you're a failure, all in all
- You take a positive attitude toward yourself

[Lepi]

The thought of trying to explain to someone what you do for a living fills you with overwhelming dread.

 

[Pippa]

Trying to take a survey on your phone and being told it can only be taken on a PC or Laptop

 

[Lepi]

You envy people working at Arby's, because at least they don't have to try and worry about self employment taxes.
You can have 3 tabs of porn open and it's all work related.
You periodically expect books or magazines to contain an attention check.
You read the words "A bat and a ball" and your immediate response is "5 cents, 47, 5 minutes"
When people ask you for your opinion, you feel a bit resentful that they don't offer you a penny.

...you call to set up a payment plan on a medical bill and the financial office lady asks you when your pay periods are and you have absolutely no idea what to say.

"daily"

 

[Digital Nomad]

....your normally broke.

 

[LexDigg]

...you turn off the porn you're watching and yell, "I ain't getting paid for this!!!"

 

[MerryLou]

You use the "recall a time" space to rail on someone IRL and it's kinda like getting paid to go to an awful therapist.

 

[Liz]

Now I am just twitter stalking all of you.

 

[El Pablo]

This still turk related, sorta, I almost gave my wife the this morning.

 

[Vanyanka]

...when people ask what you do, you just tell them "it's hard to say."
...you use your Mturk buddies' weird screen names in conversations with your friends and family like they should know what you're talking about.

 

[clickhappier]

"not sure if workaholic or just modern slave"

 

[Sondi]

...you have your Amazon worker ID memorized (how did this happen - I never even type it! I blame Inquisit)

 

[coffeeowl]

--you turk on your phone between awkward lulls while visiting family and wish you had brought your laptop.

 

[Drwho10]

...you look at the item category online and rate if its good or not. (thanks PI search)

 

[TotalBabe]

Whenever any appliance makes a beeping or dinging noise, momentarily, you think it's an alert for a new HIT being posted.

Damn you, HIT scraper.:spaz:

 

[SunlitSunflower]

...you find a quarter in the ground while walking and think "Oh what a great and fast hit!". My husband and I do this every time with all change we find.
