Dark Raver Camper Posted February 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Ok, I did 101, so I’m not on the probationary period. Maybe that only pertains for a period right after you’ve been approved. Recap of today, I spent my planned offday from work doing this shit. I put in a solid 6 hours, while drinking apple ale. Today was loss leader day for me. I probably will earn $15 in 6 or more hours. Comparable to idiotic, but.............I’m looking to spit out numbers and increase the approval rate, which will potentially open up more options in this silly little game. I’m having trouble walking away from it. It’s like a Tetris or drugs, at least at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to show you how fucked up our government is, we have a federal facility in Boyers, PA that is the headquarters for all civil service pensions. I visited there a couple of years ago and their automation consists of IBM mainframe computers running COBOL. Yes, 1960s technology processing millions of transactions daily here in 2018... Their phone number is 1-800-321-1080, $25.00 to the first poster that can reach a human on the phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Raver Camper Posted February 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 I called, I wasn’t motivated by $25, rather I like a challenge. They are closed however the message doesn’t give me the impression it would be hard to speak with a human. Maybe the message is smoke in mirrors. I won’t remember or be determined to call on Monday.

Dark Raver Camper Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 I pulled one, for $1, to come up with a contest idea. I consider myself creative.

Dark Raver Camper Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 FUCK that. I returned it. I can’t associate in material related to nerds and creepers, even for $1 straight cash homey. I wouldn’t be able to go to sleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Raver Camper Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 OK, I’ve become abrasive, mean, and short with my cohabitants, aka family. I feel mentally exhausted and could best describe it to the scene in Shawshank Redemption where Andy is teaching the younger inmate so he could get what I assume is a grade or high school equivalency and the guy freaks out with all of the stress. That is how I feel. I earned $60, but after all is cleared, maybe $75, and I feel like I’m involved in some sort of mind controlling experiment. Hopefully I get back to reality tomorrow and balance things better so I don’t come close to this feeling again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingRevolver Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 WTF... I just read some KFC receipt from a year ago. They asked me to basically list the two items purchased and how much they cost... then write in time and date that's on the receipt. What the fuck is the point of this?

joeybagadonuts Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 My first ever job in Silicon Valley when I was still in college was similar to what you guys ( I had to listen to calls and transcribe them to tune voice automation) are doing for slave wages while I got paid $25 per hour in 1999.

WTF kinda of shit is this? Fuck that... I'm done.I was like you. I did one like that and said f it. After a little over a month, I have it another shot and almost always have done the surveys, aside from the soccer scores yesterday. You know once you takes one and you don’t like it, you could return it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Raver Camper Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 I incorporated using turkopticon this morning. This is something I could navigate/use. The hitfinder/scripts thing seems intimidating. Hits seem slow this morning so maybe I’ll take monkey’s advice to learn something new. When I’m in the office I won’t be doing this, so things are going to slow down a bit for me. Still, my $5 goal a day is reasonable. 204 approved hits, 98.08% approval 63 pending $63.45 earned, probably 18 hours put in after yesterday’s loss leader marathon session. Also a mental breakdown last night. I’m good to go now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
