    this is just a total guess but maybe like 10% blank and another 5% with only one of the two

    I got a lot of dead ones too,probably 10-15 or so in the two thousand I did

    I actually keep note of the dead ones in notepad and copied/pasted my notes into my emails to them

    Mine was 30% blank. I thought it was less until I sorted and looked after sending it. About half were dead or retired, half had a different job...usually at another university. My lists were really old though because some of mine had retirement ceremonies in the 1990's...

    if I could only find contact info on them for another university I put that in rather than leaving it blank

    one of the things I asked for clarification on but away for the weekend I guess so no response yet

    Yeah the only reason I didn't do that is because then you have to change the school information and location and all that. I don't know if it'd mess him up. What he should do is just ask us to find all the staff we can at a university and put their information. Pay us per entry. Then he has an updated list of the people working there instead of using an old list

    Obviously my problem is my number of Hits done..I very rarely can find batches, almost always stick to surveys..this needs to change..

    She's VERY conservative. I'm about as liberal as you can get without being communist. Lots of bickering and passive aggression occurred.

    My grandma asks every 5 mins if you're hungry or thirsty. She never takes no for an answer either. If you don't get something to eat or drink, she'll bring it to you anyway. Then while you're drinking the drink or eating the food she'll ask if you want something else. It's like she's trying to fatten us up to slaughter us for christmas dinner

    Eh don't let the number of HITs bother you. The money is what matters. You can get one HIT that pays 300 dollars...or do 30,000 penny HITs. Same thing...except the 30k will probably make your finger hurt from clicking so much

    Edit: I have under 250 submitted this week and made over 500 dollars. I couldn't care less about the number of HITs so long as I'm making the money
