Troll Alert Or Army Wives who PCS too often to afford to NOT have somethin' on the side. ALL OF THIS ^^^^
Understood. I contributed a link earlier to Taggered and Two Lakes. I will stick to providing links then...
Me personally, young child at home so someone has to be around. My wife made more money on the regular and her job was year round so I became Mr. Mom. I do the laundry, cook, clean, and earn enough money on turk every week to cover the food bill and other bills. Weekends I try to hit more what I use to do and bring in some extra.
Am I the only one who did hundreds of the Liat HITs? Plz tell me I won't be the only one shittin' bricks with hundreds of HITs pendin' for a couple days lol.
its more like college students stay at home moms, maybe dads as well people that do it on a slow day at work and basically anybody with some free time
lol funny you mention that I thought the same thing. hand fan...tee and golfball bag that holds 1 golfball rofl.... empty tin...yup all great F off gifts =P
No, abc, you are fine... I jumped the gun... Way too many trolls been running through our sandbox and my fingers worked faster than my mind. My apologies... Thanks for your contributions... And to answer your initial question - there are many reasons people Turk... Many just do it for fun. Some of us work from home as a job in general and fill in slow times with mTurk stuff. As other members mentioned they are students, stay at home moms, and I know of a few who are disabled and don't have many other options. You'll find that several members are making this extra $25+ a day sitting in the lounge chair with the TV on and working on their iPad. Not a bad gig! Again my apologies for jumping the gun! We are NOT "that other forum."
i have a regular job and school.. i do this for quick cash. my regular job pays once a month most of the people around me appear middle class
I'm with you...not quite 700 like you but I'm a little over 200, and I'm bout to go back in again. It seems never ending.
Not a problem, my friend (if I may be so bold). I only ask because I basically work on Turk because I suffer from Avoidant Personality Disorder and Social Anxiety. I am also very shy, avoid eye contact, etc. So, I find mechanical turk to be a financial godsend! I have made approximately $34,000 on MTurk since April 2010. I hope to contribute in the days, weeks and months to come links and ideas. So, let's get back to providing links!
Politics Requester: Lauren C Howe Reward: $2.00 per HIT HITs Available: 1 Duration: 60 minutes Auto-Approval Time: 7 days Qualifications Required: HIT approval rate (%) is greater than 95, Location is US, polor is 1
I only did 4-5. I was much more interested in doing the $1.00-6.00 surveys that are linked to here. I rarely do batch HITs that are less than $0.10 each but that's just me.
I'm getting paranoid about these Liats - the way I have been marking them is that if they are talking about NYSE as an exchange then it is a no, if they are talking about NYSE as a company (which of course it is) I mark it as such. Same with PBOC and BoE and NYMEX and whatever else. Is this a good rule of thumb do you think?
