    recently as in today or as in the last few hours, the answers are yes and no in that order

    edit: he also reduced the pay to piss again, 0.03 for 5 tasks, then 0.04 for 10 tasks...

    I wish I knew about it when I was working my undergrad as well. Now I just turk from work when I have downtime.

    This forum made the experience though. Night crew!

    still working on my undergrad, do you typically have enough free time during the school year to turk for at least self-expenditures? thats what im worried about

    I remember him! I was around a few months last year lurking and he posted a lot. And I remember him talking about alcohol/beer a lot and posting pics. Him, Turkortreat and some others were gone without a trace once I came back.

    I got the scary email and faxed in my information. Now it's just a matter of waiting to see if Amazon fucks everything up as usual, lol.

    Worst case scenario, I'll transfer my mturk balance to a gift card and order wine from Amazon. :rolleyes:

    Yep that's why you can bet I'm taking advantage of the public service loan forgiveness where I pay the minimum payment for 10 years and the rest is forgiven. Watch as soon as I finish school they'll get rid of the program x]

    There is always time. I work, turk, have three kids, hang out with friends, cook, clean, do laundry.,, (ok, so I have no life, but 32 still feels good).

    Well you have to have a career that qualifies as public service. Anything about working in a public school is typically applicable. They also have loan forgiveness for teachers or other professionals who choose to work in very poor districts with generally lower pay.

    in the spring semester I did okay. My only really bad day was Friday because classes were all lumped together that day. During fall it's gonna be a bit more difficult. I got a super full Tuesday/Thursday. Luckily I was able to get one of my classes on a Saturday when not much is up, though.

    I'm out for the night. Didn't really notice the time :X

    If anyone feels like ignoring me for ignorant reasons, I'll post an instructional video for you tomorrow!

    To the rest of you, good night and pleasant dreams!

    Hey me too! (the tuesday/thursday thing) I have mondays and fridays basically off and wednesday I have a very long lull between classes so I imagine I'll turk then. I find it funny to imagine myself on campus turking.
