06/19 - Winded Wednesday!

It's ok, at least now I can tell myself it's because of ebil turkers instead of the fact I'm wildly unqualified to do anything besides serve lunch in their cafeteria

 

i think rowan needs to fire/reject/replace whoever did his polygon tracing shit here lmao

totally not saying this because i want him to post more batches

 

Downloaded and burned to blank CDs and shipped to North Korea to be sold on the black market.

 

He should get some of the Computer Vision Turk peeps, I hear they'll do anything for 12 cents.

 

Track down whoever went ham on these.

 

Curse you! You got me all excited

 

I would have been completely screwed without Mturk. I managed to support a family of 5 for almost a year. and have my wife give birth to our daughter at a US accredited medical clinic in a third world country. It definitely has a learning curve but it has amazing potential. You all give me a lot of hope for how I can supplement my income while working my day job in the US.

 

Mturk works absolutely fine for this, but 98% of people just aren't going to be making more on mturk to the point where it can be a fulltime job for them. We can't all be @Randomacts or @THFYM

 

Yeah I had a year where it was my only income and I'm really grateful that I was able to do it from anywhere cause my laptop was basically the only thing I owned!

 

You're welcome.

 

Good time for some lightning

You guys know how terrible I am, and my wife gave birth last month so I was working part-time and the other half of the time I was screwing around on the forum.. I seriously do not know what people can complain about. it's not hard. I honestly do not know what people that complain about Mturk and that say they do not make money do while on the platform.

 

Yeah, that's what I was thinking seeing there were that many approvals, maybe I missed something. But with such a vague name I cannot for the life of me remember what the survey even was. Don't wanna mess around with a VPN as I turk from work . I'm not that worried about it, was just curious as to what could have gone wrong lol.

 

not being spoonfed batches and expecting mturk to be online work from home paradise when it's anything but

 

this gonna be a rough summer
