09/06 - Fun Friday!

Only after getting so many rejections, I finally tried TVJS. It is said that necessity is the mother of all inventions.

 

"If you have a raw turkey that you're about to cook and serve to Jeff Bezos during the first full moon of the year, how morally acceptable is it, if no one's watching and no one will ever know..............."

 

Jeff doesn't have a masters degree. How about a burger as he was flipping it when he was in a college?

 

You don't need a master's degree if you're worth billions.

 

You don't need billions if you have a master's degree!

That's what I tell myself to sleep at night.

After I'm done masturbating using my tears as lubricant.

 

It is a very disgusting and pathetic use of your precious tears. I hate tears. If I were you, I shall have my girlfriend in her bed and satisfy her in every position possible so that happy tears shall be flowing.

Please don't ask, from where?

 

What is even happening RN

 

Talking about how valuable our MBAs are

 

Oh yeah, well then I guess it's perfect that baby has had me awake since 3:30, bc apparently I was needed for this discussion. Also, I am a moron and not only pursued an MBA but one in "Sustainable Business"! What an idiot

edited: bc I don't need to tell you I'm an idiot twice!

 

I definitely overlooked the fact that you need a bazillion years of biz experience before the MBA or no one gives you a job. In my MBA's defense, I have not looked for a real job bc I just want to stay home and turk all daiiz.

 

It's true. You need biz experience to get a hefty paycheck. How many hours do you spend turking daily?

 

Depends on the day

Pros:
potentially large bonus. 5 cents for each of 50 you label correctly. $1 for 98% (?) accuracy or 50c for 90% accuracy. 0.25 for finishing the survey. I didn't pay attention to the exact number I answered correctly so I only put in the 0.25 for survey.

Cons:
It doesn't say separately at the end how many you answered correctly. There was an indicator throughout but it's easy to overlook if you're just trying to get a good time on it. Can only do one of these sweet babies.

Does the user want to book?

Same mistake I made before, rushing through these. — (Don't rush! Earn that penny.)

Customer has a full-length chat with the bot, and it's all about booking — a specified hotel, number of nights, dates of arrival and departure, prices, etc. — so yeah, they want to book?... Near the end (just as you're rushing to click submit and move on to the next penny), you see the one line you missed where they say: "Never mind, cancel" or "That's OK, forget it" or "Not ready to book, I'll shop around" or "Thanks, actually I don't want to book, I was just testing you" or "We're just gathering information, never mind, sorry"...

 

I have such mixed feelings about not just these specific ones but all of the ones they've been dropping across req IDs over the last couple weeks. On the one hand, more hits and also $$. On the other hand, they slow my poor little laptop down to a crawl trying to catch them. I keep going between PANDAing the hell out of them and then cursing their existence.

 

Is that penny really worth all that?

Yeah they have what, about 3 requester IDs and they continually post hits with various ever-changing group IDs? ... I guess they have their reasons, but it's a bit cumbersome for us.

In addition to panda'ing the ones that build up a count, I also want some of the single ones too. I use some private script trickery to help me nab some of those.
