Happy Thanksgiving. No Wal-Mart for me! It was the walmart shopper images that did it for me. I still shop Amazon and I am not sure about the integrity of their practices but I do think walmart treats their employees horribly. I plan to shop more on sites like Etsy.com.
I think I ate too much to be effective at turking tonight. I just spent a whole 3 min staring at a question before being able to answer... What is your gender? Male Female Its a tricky one...
lol i'm done! I did 797 and have $41.05 for today...that's good enough! Crossed fingers on medcrowd still being there when I get up but i'm not counting on it too much
why do some requesters only allow you to do so many of a HIT (crowdsource)? I was doing the HIT: Find the relation between two words.....makes no sense to me.
For most of the Crowdsource ones you're bumping peoples stuff up or down the search rankings when you search the terms they provide. So they need different Unique IP's to do this. Basically just need a lot of different people doing it, so they cap you on it.
Yesterday, I was doing a HIT where I was required to watch porn and break it down into different scenes.....It was the first time I've ever gotten paid to watch porn "Giggity Giggity Alright"
Hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving. Please respond to my question if you have a chance. It is on page 3 http://mturkforum.com/showthread.php?4655-Tax-Information/page3&highlight=1099
That's how I felt until I had to split 8 scenes of Herm's, 5 videos in a row.... I just treat the job like a Porta Potty Cleaner. The job will always be shitty, but somebody has to do it!
do any of you do the transcripts? are they worth the time to read through the entire transcript guide and memorize all of that stuff? On top of the memorization, (you know there's going to be mistakes at first) going back through to double triple check the work so it doesn't get returned and suffer the horrible money making at first (due to how long it would take a beginner with all of the mistake correcting and audio reversing)?
Great question. I know it's one I had when I started turking because people always said that the real money is in transcription. The requester "ClariTrans" has excellent, fair-paying transcription HITs from the range of 5,10,15,20, and 35 second audio files and you have to transcribe them, which takes an extra 10-30 seconds. These are a great way to learn the ropes of transcription. Typing speed is going to be your biggest hurdle.
