Hmmm, a ton on A9s from day before yesterday and a ton of mixed stuff from yesterday haven't approved, despite being past AA. I wonder if I should chalk this up to that bit about them having 10 business days to transfer the money to our accounts.
Is anyone else having problems with frequent captchas today? I only have 13 hits done and I've had to enter captcha 3 times!!!
I think I'd go nuts. I remember one batch i was working super fast on, I ended up feel like I had bugs crawling on me. My eyeballs hurt and I just felt too frenzied. I can't do that. lol

I remember hitting like 700 or 800 in an hour once. I felt like I was on crack or something. I felt all jittery, heart racing, eyes were vibrating. I had migraines throughout the day the next day. Now I just work fast, but not crack head fast.
good way to wake up open up a cat/sentiment batch in a couple windows put on some loud music and go to town edit: honestly as far as doing hits super fast goes the only annoying thing to me is if you're going fast enough you'll get refresh errors even without any sort of scraper/pandas running sometimes,now that sucks
Yes. I think some of us just aren't cut out for that type of work. I can't do the same thing constantly like that. At all.
That reminds me of that movie Bug with Ashley Judd...I think. Now I want to watch it again. They were crazy.
Fresh out of high school, I worked in the imaging department of an insurance company. Some days my job would be to print off barcodes and slap them on stacks of documents, over and over, for seven hours a day. Other days, I'd run the high speed scanner, and I ran stacks and stacks of documents through, for seven hours a day. That prepared me for this shit. This is downright fun in comparison.
Yeah, I can do it for short bursts if the money's good enough, but if a batch is too mindless I just go insane after a while and time starts crawling. I'd much much rather have one huge varied task for the same amount of time/$ if given the choice.
honestly I kinda look forward to long mindless batches on here it's the only thing that I do that provides just the right conditions for me to actually be able to focus on a podcast
