When work doesn't pay what I'm will, I stop doing it

I've been enjoying the 'straight to the IRB' person on reddit for doing their thing every time a confused college student crosses their path...

 

I cringe so hard when I see one of those "REJECTED BY ----" threads on r/mturk, because you know someone is about to get swarmed by angry unreasonable folks.

HIT exported from Mturk Suite v2.2.3.1​

 

Basically this. If you're that upset with the pay drop, just don't do the hits. If she doesn't get the batch done, she'll likely start rejecting scammers and increase the pay to the original amount. It's not hard, people.

She is a student at a university.. I would bet my entire life's savings on her not actually having a choice in this situation - which is my whole point.

 

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ like i said, i don't have the qual

 

It is prob a better idea to just revoke quals instead of rejecting ect

 

But you have to pay workers for the work they did if you just revoke the qual. Rejecting saves money.

 

I don't think that their adviser really understands mturk so that likely causes problems. Dipendra seems to understand how the platform works but that is likely because he has been here for few years now.

The way I see it is that he is likely having to teach the adviser the best he can while being mode due to shit being due. The good news is that we finished the work for him way ahead of schedule so he should be able to relax some.

 

I wonder how much they pay the surgeon reviewers for C-SATS?

 

More than $6/hr that is for damn sure.

 

I love grub hub. Good while turking.

 

Never tried it, I heard some horror stories, I am guessing good experiences with you so far?

 

Damn it - I'm going back for 5 more years of school 3 years of residency and 5 years of practice so I can get the big C-SATS bucks
Correction - 5 (2 years pre med + 3 years Med?
