10/24 - Threaded Thursday!

also happy birthday to the only other str worker @THFYM

 

I'd vote for Giannis if his name was easier to spell

 

Then why are there still weekly "NEEDFUL BACK LOG" emails going out?

i said i work the requester, not his work

 

I love the "I'm going to qual more people if you don't do my underpaid garbage!" emails every other day.

 

Even the newly qualled people don't do his garbage

 

*quals more people*

*those people wait for @sarin's batches and don't do the underpaid garbage*

Spoiler

 

Not even a 10% bonus for throwing away your weekend on them

 

yeah. i think houston will be more fun to watch, maybe not better, but the west is a bit more open this year.

 

Nah instead you get an email saying, no asking, to work on the older stuff that's been around for a while. That's the real reward for wasting your week-end.

Pros:
Straight forward and simple, basically just the main task, a couple of questions, and demos. Ran very smoothly once it finally loaded.

Cons:
Not bad. It does require full attention for about 5 minutes of key pressing but it's low pressure. It did load extremely slowly for me, but I'm pretty sure the issue was with my internet so I did not include that in my completion time. Once it was loaded there were no other performance issues.

Who?

 

and then CT mysteriously disappeared.

@NBadger and @gurlondrums were seen nearby.

 

@NBadger doesn't do feedback usually lol

Even I'm 99% sure @gurlondrums will tell you she's useless for feedback.. half of the time she sends me anything it's followed by "maybe, idk, "

 

Haven't seen this many spellchecks since jag was talking about mud huts

Boom, 2016 reference

 

The other day I saw a convo pass by about turking in a group van or something, didn't see any 18 wheeler references and realized MTurk doesn't come w/ a retirement plan

 

then we're on a feedback hiatus until feedback is accompanied with a meaningless gesture of 5 gold stars.

if Microsoft can do it, twice, so can TurkerView.

 

Joke's on you. Austin likes butt stuff.

 

The mods can always count on you to toss the grenade if we forget to
