    I left my qual watcher on, but I tweaked the script so it only alerts me with TTS when it's a HIT I can actually accept, for less distractions.

    Personally, I still like to log the quals so I can go back and request them later when I'm caught up with my queue & nothing looks good on HIT Finder.

    I've tweaked OW enough such that I can't tell you the exact line number to edit. But if you Ctrl-F for playAlertPreference...
    Code:
                    if (hitObject.Qualified === true) {
                        playAlertPreference(hitObject.Requester); //plays our alert, change the input to hitObject.userName to make TTS say the name of your watcher button\
                    }

    I have a couple requesters I found through mturk but we ended up working together off platform through emails and venmo/paypal. I also have a clickworker/UHRS account but I don't do as much there as I do mturk. I also work 40-50 hours a week for my dayjob. So I only do what I can on mturk and other options on here.

    I think you are a nice person. :) Please try to rest once in a while. I know that money is important but your health is not worth it. I have a friend that gets no sleep and works 60+ a week (and lives like 35-40 minutes away) and her health has suffered from years of overwork.

    I very strongly second this
    I have said on here before that I was living like this for a long time until one day my body couldn't take it any more and I fell assleep while working (driving) , I very nearly died that day and will be dealing with the aftermath of that day for the rest of my life.

    Angel gets it.
    I have worked a lot in the past (at AT&T I pulled the 60+ weeks and liked a lived 45 minutes away and I would do OT at the other phone company as well) and I know you probably have bills but sleep is a good thing. Heck at least try for 5 or 6 hours.

    what ever the reason it is not worth it
    money- how much more money will your family need when you are not there or develop serious medical issues
    @LLL I know your situation a little from what you say on here and that you have bills but I'm sure your husband would want you to look after yourself as well. You can't help him if your are in the hospital . And there are people here and I'm sure in other parts of your life who care about you and will miss you if you keep pushing yourself like this.

    She's a wonderful person. Part of it is that her husband is terribly ill, so she's trying to get to spend as much time with him as possible and trying to improve his health as much as she can afford.

    I admire that kind of unselfish sacrifice in a person.
