I was rejected by this requester for a HIT posted on 4/11. Now blocked also.

flying through the disgust/rage/fear masters hits. I titled this 1 "Sandwich with problems".

 

I absolutely love seeing peoples' daily and weekly earnings! It's so inspiring, and that's what motivated me to learn more about how to Turk better.

I sometimes am hesitant to make someone else feel bad also, but there are times that I am so dang proud of myself and grateful for the help that other Turkers put out there, that I go ahead and brag on it a little

So I don't care that so many people make a lot more than me, because they have their journeys and I have mine. Maybe I can spend more time at this each day because I am a stay-at-home mom and all my kids are big enough now to not need my constant attention.

Maybe I will be one of the super high earners at some point, but right now I'm really proud of myself for what I have done.

All of you, please don't stop showing what's possible! Without that, I would have kept believing the Reddit threads and quasi-news articles saying that making a living on MTurk is impossible. Once I found this forum, and my eyes were opened to what's really possible, this is what happened for me:

Nov 2019 $29.46

Dec 2019 $86.09

Jan 2020 $188.70

Feb 2020 $136.21
(This is the point when I decided to get my own laptop instead of just using my husband's while he was at work. I also took some more time to learn about scripts and how to get better at choosing which hits to take.)

Mar 2020 $786.47

April $950.89, so far.

I'm hoping to challenge myself to increase each month, even if it's only a few dollars, but I won't be down on myself when it fluctuates in either direction. It's still so amazing to me that I finally found something I can do from home that doesn't take me away from my family.

And then to have this forum full of amazing people who give their time to help people like me.... and just spend time together sharing little bits of our lives... and shiptoasting.... and learning how to post gifs, lol. I literally have tears in my eyes right now because of how grateful I am.

I really don't mean to sound overly dramatic, and I'm sorry for the long post, but being able to see what others earn has been such a motivation to me that it has seriously changed my life as far as now wanting to always dig a little deeper to see what's possible in other areas of life as well.

I feel like I've just gotten started, but also like I've been here forever at the same time.

 

Wow you are kickin my ass! I used to do $250 a week but man something last fall broke for me hard and now I'm strugglin to hit $150. Been trying to iron it out but I have yet to figure out why! Great job!

 

I remember reading LLL's posts back in the day and being motivated about turking too. She's still to this day my favorite person I've had the pleasure to encounter on this forum. People who make bank on MTurk and post it here are awesome.

 

This pretty much makes my whole day. You are doing fantastic!! AND you have kids (like a lot of them from what I remember). Not sure how you're hitting those numbers with how much you must have to do on a daily basis, but you should be very proud of yourself!

 

Same, I have a hard enough time keeping up on this one, lol


Sorry, this was supposed to be in reply to @Random Turker for this one :
"I don't know how you all keep up with multiple sub forums on here. I browsed around the other day. I'd get no work done and get distracted. I'm impressed."

 

In this survey, we will ask you to plan an all-day productive day on Saturday, May 23rd. We will ask you to take pictures of the experience. If you do not complete the experience that you describe for how you spend your day, you will not be paid for this study.

hahahhahahahhahah no. Productive pffft

 

Since we're saying positive things I just wanted to add that you are all nice and funny and always make my day.
