People say this everytime more people get a qual

The turk world will keep turning

 

He probably qualled more people cause enough old qual people stopped. Then in a few months/next year, he'll do it again. Or the batches will all die in 5 min and everyone only gets 10 HITs, then he will only post 2 more batches then be gone forever.

 

I ended up going with a 'minimum' goal, and it's kind of a fluid thing. If I make $200 in one day, I know I can kind of coast or even not work for a day or two and still be on track. Or if the work is there for another good day right after it, I'll take it, knowing I'll be able to coast another day or two when the work isn't there.

The nature of mturk being feast or famine makes setting goals pretty difficult. One day it might be easy to get to $200 and the next it might be impossible to get to $20. As long as you have a general idea where you want to be by the end of the week/month, it'll ebb and flow. If you feel like you're leaving money on the table and can still work without neglecting yourself and life, go for it, because there might be a day you can't work, don't want to, or mturk is stingy.

 

Plus the amount of folks who get a new, shiny qual and then use it like twice and get bored or never ham them.

Or they die after today like you said. Either or

 

Maybe



Maybe not...

 

such is life.

 

1. Question
Is the video about ""?

Anyone else getting that blank sometimes?

 

@ChrisTurk

 

kinda wishing I had fought more and paid attention when this qual came out... I assume its the 2016Centrality qual?

 

I was doing that customer service survey that was $1.40 and chrome decided to shut down and I lost the hit. Guess that's the indication to how my day is going. Only at $3 so far when yesterday I ended at $47.
Also hi this is my first time posting and it's me complaining, sorry.

 

does anyone know if a dog can use a normal tredmill? i see dog ones for about 700 and i also want my own and have seen dogs using normal ones in movies so idk what to do, i do not have space for two, my dogs are mid size (pittbull and retriver/pitt mix)

thanks for any help

 

I use the daily thread as my personal blog campaign against FitBit, at least your complaints are MTurk related

welcome to turkerhub!

 

Why wouldn't they be able to? I don't see why they couldn't. It's just a moving platform thing.

The internet is magical.

 

I would assume yes, however I would not feel safe if there were not a safety mechanism worked in where if the dog stops running, that the treadmill will turn off to avoid obvious choking on the collar or harness and being dragged.
