4/26 - Working For That Money Wednesday

And who knows what I'm missing out on in the meantime since you can't queue up Prolific hits...

 

if it's anything like my queue, absolutely nothing.

 

if this pops up randomly for you like it did me (probably people sending it back or the 2 hr timer ending?), it's bubble hell and the progress bar moves slower than a snail but once you're through the pages of bubbles it isn't so bad. it's those same questions of do you take drugs, what terrible things have happened to you or someone you know, etc. where time depends on the answers you give but if 'no' is the answer to a bunch of them it picks up. was probably 15 minutes for me with breaks to do a couple hits.

Well I'm still sittin' here staring at this painting and its been over 10 min. This is prob gonna be closer to 40-50min if not longer

 

And yeah while Prolific may be dead, stuff like those Andrew Santana's pop up.. and missing out out one of those for this is not a good trade off

Welp, to round out my complaining - just finished that at 40 min. Did have to write about my experience afterward, and then it repeated the pages of bubble hell I already answered all over again. And there are more follow up sessions so this better pay if I don't complete them

 

I am not sure why everyone is complaining about this. The pay is very good and it is not hard at all. Most of it is looking at a piece of art for 15 minutes. There is a 15 minute timer on the art viewing part.

You can do other things during that time I assume. Yes there are a lot of bubbles but they are easy and there is one short writing piece..very easy. In fact, watching the short video I learned a lot about art and colors that I didnt know.

I will be sure to do them all to get the final on top bonus

 

Prolific is an enigma I go three days with too much work. The a day and a half with only a couple surveys then BAM. The flood gates open and I cant keep up this afternoon. Some low pay, some high pay. I had to let a couple low pay ones go. I hope this keeps up. I was worried I had been blocked for some reason.

 

Yeah it's pretty random. I had a great day yesterday and today it's been empty for me. At least I still have that remesh to look forward to later (if i catch it)

 

What is the best time to try for the Remesh hits? I know it said 7 min before, but I wanted to know if you should try even earlier.

 

same here. i was so annoyed because yesterday i had other things to take care of so i could barely do anything besides the andrew santana i had scheduled in the evening but stuff kept popping up. and now today i've got all the time in the world and it's dry.

 

The last one I did showed up 7-10 mins before it started. There were still at least 100 slots available when I accepted. I don't think they should be THAT hard to catch though since they're quald

 

Wasn't this a shady requestor? The name sounds familiar.

I don't consider $6.90 for 40 minutes to be good pay, but that's me

Also "everyone" is not complaining, its just me

And the req explicitly states to not do anything else at all during the task and says you will be rejected if you exit the tab. Maybe you can get around that, but when I review a hit, my review takes into consideration exactly what the req expects of you versus what they are paying you for those expectations

Ok thank you! This is my first one

 

Id still suggest being ready at least 15-30 mins earlier though because you never know, they could release them early.
