I'm good at mTurk. I usually make $200-$250 per week, sometimes much more, but I could probably make $500 without an issue at this point if I didn't have other work going on. As it is it's usually on the back burner as I do Appen until something really great pops up (which it usually does at least once a day for an hour or two, but not always). Basically you can tell how mTurk is based on how much Appen I work. The last two weeks have been really good and I've only done the min at Appen. I also have two extra monitors and some other stuff to make my workflow better. It's working out pretty well I've cultivated relationships with some requesters so I get some good closed projects. |

i mean, i guess on the one hand it's not really fair to judge the way someone makes a living. but on the other hand... took farted in the woods. that's objectively not the same thing as being sharted through by a spirit. right? i don't know, what do i know. |

Yes, that is literally what I literally think is the literal and rigid truth. Yes, the reason she broke up with me is definitely because I was sexist towards her, especially with regards to her periods.

Actually one of the reasons she broke up with me had to do with the division of labour in the household, which is pretty implicitly sexist. I was punished by the housemate gods for it when I moved into the only place I've lived where I had the highest standard of cleanliness.

Spiritual Self-Care Tips
“Rest and self-care are so important. When you take time to replenish your spirit, it allows you to serve others from the overflow. You cannot serve from an empty vessel.” ― Eleanor Brownn Tips: Imitate Jesus in making time with God a priority. "Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed." Mark 1:35 (Matt 14:23, Mk 6:46) Benefits: faith strengthened, focus shifted vertically, realization that God is bigger than anything you or I face. Forgive yourself and forgive others. "Unforgiveness is like drinking poison yourself and waiting for the other person to die." Marianne Williamson "Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." Colossians 3:13 Rest. Over scheduling creates burnout, which in turn keeps us from our God-given purpose. Take the time to rest. ""Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.”" Mark 6:31 Relationship/Community. From the beginning of time, God made us to be in relationship with Himself and others. We are many members, but one body. Connect with people. "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another..." Hebrews 6:24-25 Choose Joy. Joy is a choice. We choose to focus on the negative or positive. "This is the day which the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalms 118:24 NASB Think Lovely Thoughts. What you think about matters greatly and affects your well-being. "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." Philippians 4:8 Gratitude. Try to find good in every situation and give God thanks. "Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." I Thessalonians 5:16-18 Note: All scriptures are from the New International Version (NIV) unless otherwise noted. |

mTurk, at least now, relies a lot on metrics (number of HITs done, acceptance %, etc) but also custom qualifications. Some of it is right place+right time, but people will post qualification HITs and give people they like access to more of them to do. I have some of these, none of them are amazing (high pay + post often), but there's enough there to make mTurk viable for sure. In fact I have an open invitation to get an unlimited amount of work (for a few months) for this one requester making about $13-14/hr but I kinda hate the work and it's very cognitively intensive and I can make that doing anything else, so I only committed 3-5 hours per week. That's an absolutely luxury on mTurk. But there are plenty of people who make a living on it for sure. If I didn't have a good backbone setup with Appen I definitely would do it. That's really the key, the Appen backbone. This way you're not always hustling for the next thing, at least not as desperately. I am putting him in contact with some mturk peeps I know. Plus, even as I work on Appen, I at least have my scripts for mTurk going, so I can be in the right place at the right time more often. Gotta be around to get it. And I am part of a slack workgroup that helps each other. I've even done some very light scripting as well. Learning more. Turn bullshit work into viable money making by automating mouse clicks and such. Which is totally allowed as long as the script isn't actually doing the work for you (obviously). |

This online work sounds great and I wish I had discovered it before paying more money for yet more study, only to figure out that I’m too old for anyone to hire in an entry level position. Not sure if I could even do this stuff from NZ.
It really sounds great reprise and you sound like you’re doing really well. In my deep well of stagnant disappointment it is actually very comforting to know that things are picking up for you. Maybe the world can be a good place after all |

Thanks, vix. I'm glad too. Wish I was working in my field but working from home is a good second prize. It's a dead end, though, and I'm still not making what I should be for someone with a degree. But I can pay to live alone and take care of my basics, which is awesome.

Could you please tell us a little more about Lionbridge? I am trying to get into working online a bit right now and hopefully more later this year (Reprise has been helping me a lot).
Just the basics of how you got into it and what to do to succeed. Thank you. |

Thank you for the info. That's sounds somewhat like Appen (at least the hiring process), which Reprise recommended. This is something I might do to supplement my income. Working from home is sweet.

Yeah it’s the same thing as appen, just a different company and I think their guidelines and rating system is different. Also you have to sign an nda with lionbridge, and are prohibited from working for their competition or giving information on their guidelines, software, etc. I think Appen has the same rules.
I think as long as you really study the guidelines, know all scenarios, really just memorize the guidelines page by page then you’d pass the big exam. Just study hard! |

OK, I will study hard. And if I fail one, I can always try the other, after all.

It's the same thing, different company. My test was three parts, open guidelines, week to do all three. Most people do fail, and I'm sure I got plenty wrong. I assume they expect you to do poorly but show that you really looked through the guidelines and got basic problems correct. All the info is in there, but they make the problems hard and you can't just keyword search them, the bastards. The second two tests are just like real assignments. Most of it is really judgement and there's a window of acceptable answers. I think if you can generally identify what is a good source of information and what is biased, that's a big part of it. There are plenty of scenarios that come up a lot that you can find "correct" answers for, but that's not really most of it.
Also my hours are minimum 15 max 26. Two weeks under per year, more you have to let them know ahead of time and they have to approve it. Quality reviews monthly. Last edited by reprise85 : 07-23-2019 at 09:42 PM. |

Hmm. Sounds tough, but a whole week and open book really helps. I finish my certificate right at the start of December, and I doubt I'll have much work that month, so I'll probably do one of those tests then.
Thanks again guys. Last edited by FoolofaTook : 07-23-2019 at 08:53 PM. Reason: question already answered! |
