@WalledPillow since a lot of folks are kinda LOL'ing this / joking FWIW I'm kinda serious. Basically expect the "normal" level to be lower than Feb-Sept from now until like mid January.

Side-stepping details: nah fam

 

Took out "much" - not really that awful on a micro scale if you work you'll make money if you don't you wont

Thanks for the info. I've been meaning to pick up other sources of income; I guess now is the time to do so.

I second this. We're not getting anything.

I'm guessing the amount of surveys (my main source of work) available go way down during the winter breaks. Do other types of work see similar drops?

 

I'm going to get some coffee and get to work turking. from what I remember, some years thanksgiving week isn't that bad, other years it's like beyond horrible as far as earnings. so I'm going to try to keep going today until I fall asleep then freak out less the rest of the week.

reference - that math formula was me figuring out how much is "not freak out" amount.

 

I think you forgot to carry the one

 

the slow down makes me miss the choice lab hits from last year

everyday was a lottery on whether your bonuses would be $30 or $5
