I returned that. That confirms my evaluation .

 

By accident/on accident is a perilous topic among editors. If you wanna see wordy nerds have a contentious throw down over which phrase they think should be in a text, I invite you to sit in at my next meeting. Jk, don't do that, it's boring and I don't wear pants!

I did actually forget Sprite when at the store this afternoon...

 

I've been in a heated argument at the bar about whether imaginary numbers were just another vector or something special.These types of arguments see, normal to me.

 

Sure, I'm for it!

 

You okay?

Rejected!
Requester Feedback: Dear MTurker,
We are sorry but the analysis of your answer shows that: You failed the 2nd attention check:
How distracting was the environment in which you completed this survey? Regardless of how distracted you were, please just choose the last response option. This is actually an attention check
As we explained: “In accordance with Mechanical Turk policies, we may reject your work if: (…) you fail any attention checks”
We truly appreciate your input but we will not be able to use. Sincerely!
​

Pros:

Cons:
REJECTION!An AC was embedded in a question which most of us know means we are coming to the conclusion of the survey. I have argued that I think it is deceitful to put one there after you've just spent your time concentrating on the pertinent parts of the study. I have asked for it to be overturned, I will see if the requester gets back to me.

You understand me

 

You deserve that rejection

 

The oxford comma debacle of 2017 resulted in it being a banned topic of conversation at this company. I'm pretty sure a writer tried to punch one of the editors. jk, we are adults! ...it seemed more like she was trying to rip her hair.
