I feel the same, but I need the money, even underpaid and tedious, so I'm trying to soldier on. But when you have something like:

I'd argue that you can't 6). It's not like [Redacted], where you can breath through your nose. And, I could justify 4) and 5) as being unlikely, because the show wasn't mentioned, nor was the room, but it's just as likely those do exist. But, 1-3? How would those not be likely? 2) seems the 'best' to me, because it references back to something we've already been told. But... maybe that's what the AI wants me to think!

I like Rowan, but looking at the people posting who've gotten zinged and knowing they're diligent workers, not only does it make me anxious and apprenhensive (not for rejections or blocks, just stressed and second guessing myself) but also discouraged that he's not re-evaluating his scoring, or looking at ones like this and seeing that there's legitimately multiple likely options.

Exactly, by posting here and being generally agreeable he's made me especially not want to give a bad effort. I'm not running around screwing requesters over, but I usually assume I'm doing a good job. With his hits I'm paranoid that I'm giving him bad data and don't do hits that I might otherwise do.

 

would you feel that way for any other requester who is either burning their money or otherwise posting a task that appears to give them what appears to be no usable data?

I wouldn't say that rowan actually being here changes that. He obviously has a subjective task with answers that aren't particularly intuitive and can't be "solved". If he doesn't want your work, it appears he just disquals.

Honestly, considering he allowed himself to be scammed, AGAIN, I wouldn't put too much worry about the legitimate work you're doing. You obviously take pride in the work you submit, just do the job well as best you can. That's all he can hope for at that price.

this would be a good way to look at it, but my brain doesn't work that way. i can't press submit on anything wondering, "i don't know if this is what you want." if an honest conscious effort was what he wanted, i'd have sat here doing them all day long. instead i was doing literal trash all day, just because i don't want to give data that doesn't 100% fit the mold he's looking for, no matter how impossible it is to figure out.

it stresses me out so much to see the "oops!", haha. i always feel like i need to apologize. sofia, what do you want from meeeeeeeeee i'm sorrryyyyyy.

yes, and that's the correct way to think. If you care about the quality of work you submit.

I honestly think it's a 70/30 split. 70% of the time, the worker can do better. 30% of the time, no amount of preparation, help, resources, tools, assistance, cheating will help you know what the req is looking for.

Rowan, along with those hellish Great/Good/Bad pins, falls into that 30% imo for most people who are grinding these out.

 

Hey, you play the cereal bar games too, don't you?
