I just had to categorize the Amazon campus on an Aaron categorization HIT.

I'm wondering if its worth it to figure out Speechpad/transcription? It looks like you've made quite a bit of $$ from them. I'm wondering why you are on here working on other hits if they are so profitable. From the hits they have posted now it looks like they pay between .20-.50 cents per audio minute. From what I've read it takes 4 mins to transcribe 1 audio minute which makes the Speechpad pay between 3-7.50 dollars per hour. Are those numbers correct? Sorry if I seem nosy just trying to figure out how to make more on here.

Thx
In my opinion, every qualification is valuable to some extent. There are some days when there simply isn't anything else to work on. Speechpad is underpaid but if your typing skills are decent you can make some money with them. Just make sure to learn their format and stick to that.

I only understand because I have a kid still in elementary school. I just learned about him a few years ago.

It's a cool way schools have come up with to help kids learn about geography. They send a "paper" person to people who live in different places from them, and then the recipient takes this paper person around with them, takes pics, types up his adventures, and sends him back with the journal of his adventures.
who the hell wants to do school homework years (decades) after they leave school

Feel free to PM with any questions. It's hard for me to keep up with the forum.

I work on other hits because I work on the night shift and Turk from work, when it's busy I can't devote the attention needed to them. Plus I cherry pick the Speechpad hits. When they really want to get them done quickly they will bump the pay up 500% or more. . As far CS hits they are very worth it, but can get old fast. I limit how many I do so I do not get burnt out. If all you do is transcribe you will not last long.

And OMG! I just checked my mail. A Flat Stanley showed up at my house!

Now I get to spend my weekend taking the flat dude to all the awesome places in my town! Weekend made! I'm totally taking a pic of him sitting next to me while I turk. (as well as pics of him visiting all the George Lucas hot spots since the kid who sent it is a huge Star Wars fan and I just so happen to live in George's hometown.)

(I'm easily excited.)
Awww, my little's Flat Stanley is going to VA and then to Holland. I asked my friend to take him to Amsterdam. I soooo hope he does.

But...I love school! I should have been an academic.

And it's fun, interactive homework. Not boring stare at a book and write a paper homework.

And you think it's weird that I didn't know what monkey bread is?
I always called monkey bread "pull apart bread". I've had to adjust my thinking in the past decade or so.

Have you ever been to Lebowski Fest? It started here but has branched out to other areas of the country.
I have not been to anything of the sort in many years. I have no one willing/able to babysit all of my kids at once for longer than a few hours. If I don't have the kids, I get daydrunk and nap.
