Got rejected also

"Either repeated ratings 6 or more times or ratings differing by 5 or more on same images or ratings differing by 4 or more 2 or more times on same images."

It did not mention you can't repeat ratings only a certain amount of times! Sent them a message about this.

 

happen to remember an IRB? thankful I didn't take it but newbies might not know what I'm talking about when I ask.

 

Checked the survey link again. No contact info was given, there wasn't even a consent form.

 

That was a very interesting article..but I couldn't decide if the take-away was that we should feel relieved or angry about how underpaid we are.

 

This is why I have trouble believing that Jane's suggestions yesterday about ranting on social media would do anything, btw. Why would Amazon bother to make the effort to placate $10/hr+ workers when us leaving the platform would make more room for people who will work for a third of that, or less***

***to be clear, I blame late-stage capitalism and the disgusting behaviors it encourages, not the people who happened to be born in places where $3/hr is a living wage

Reputation on social media is potent. When their cloud service went down, they were quick to assure everyone they were on it. They don't need bad publicity.

As far as what MTurk actually makes; if we make more, they make more.
The requesters pay, MTurk is just the middle man.

While I could point out that they must make *vastly* more money on AWS than they do on mTurk (and therefore would be a lot more concerned with social media's jimmies being rustled over AWS's alleged performance) what you say makes sense. Sorry if it looks like I'm trying to argue, I'm not really. I just have this persistent really bad feeling. Hopefully I'm wrong.

 

yep! all of that! even with my lucrative batches, minus the hourly lost looking for them, yep. why I'm unapologetic about paying the Indian dude 9.99 for my catcher. honestly, he might need it more than me. But naw, for real I really do need the $. especially since student loan payments are going to be mandatory again.

 

(wth, this was a double post two seconds ago. let's try again: )

*shudder* don't remind me. the urge to just go back to school again to avoid them, lol (nobody bother @-ing me I'm not serious, k?)

 

thankfully it's not til the beginning of the school year but yeah. it's getting a little too close for comfort.

 

I mean, that's obvious, have you seen Lauren Sanchez's ring? Or the statue thing he made of her on that yacht they had to dismantle a bridge for?
