11/07 - Trail Mix Thursday!

I'm going out on a limb and say California overextended themselves in the virtual world as I have to think an internet regulation can't be created by a state such as making turk have minimum wage paying HITs. Then again, there are now online sales tax collections so maybe states have some right to regulate an internet-related thing.

they can pass all the laws they want. ultimately its how they are implemented and enforced that matters. it (the law) may not even consider amazon turk as gig work... or there may be several other work-arounds or carve outs and unintended consequences. I wouldn't venture a guess at the outcome of the impact as it could turn out vastly different than imagined or their might be no impact.

Some years ago a lot of us had to verify amazon payments by faxing our ID. Hope we don't have to go through that again, it was a pain.

In January, Amazon Payments at least had an email option. I emailed a PDF of my most recent bank statement to them and was good to go in a day or so. Probably would have taken longer if I had to fax them as I'd have to go on an archaeological expedition to find a fax dinosaur.

Way long day for me today and I am dead tired but I got a lot of different things done, got a nice lunch and I got a few hits. I was supposed to get an Amazon order today but I got a message there had been an error in routing it and they sent it back to Amazon . . . Amazon proposed to refund versus resend/replace which wasn't good since a lot of it was on sale. Two items have to be refunded as they were from outside sellers. The replacement order is going to take another week! I did get a $10 promo code but I'd rather have my order HERE NOW.

Really amazing day for me on MTurk today. I wish I could get away with not working tomorrow, but I kinda didn't do shit earlier in the week, so I'm still behind. Looking forward to at least sleeping in a bit, though. ?

Anyways, I think I'm out for the evening. Need to get away from the computer for a while. Night night, everyone.
