That's enough to make your blood boil. Be sure to mention that in TO. These days I always check TO before I do batches, because I've been burned by bad requesters. I did 50 HITs in a batch last week and they rejected 14 for reason. Low and behold they were rated horribly on TO. Live and learn.

I also Turk primarily during my 9-5 and because if the flux of my day I set the low low goal of $5 a day. Sometimes I'm too busy during the week to even hit this, but most days I surpass it.

Yup, already reviewed! I also emailed them for the benefit of the doubt and explained why this was wrong of them. We'll see.
I consider that to be a scammer with a few other choice words added. Some of these requesters just want free work and get pissed when people don't want to be paid two pennies a minute. You want someone to take 5 minutes? PAY THEM A FAIR RATE. 10 cents for 5 minutes gets 10 cents quality. I'm sorry but it's true. After 200 years of turking this has just always been the case.
I see WQZ is still up there. Thanks for the info.I know it's mentioned already but AVOID "WQZ". The guy has the audacity to say that he expects 5 minutes on each hit.. for $0.10 each.
Ditto. I was crazy busy for the first 2 hours I was here.

If your cat is anything like my cat Ziggy, she probably notices every single little new thing you bring into the house and wants to know what it is. I organized all the boxes in my basement last week and Ziggy wouldn't go down there for almost a day because it looked different.
Oh lord I wish this was a thing I could do with my little dummy! SO many places she's not meant to go but she goes anyhow.
A few years ago we had an old cat named Tom. We were getting ready to put new carpet downstairs so we had to pack everything up. My husband had a box of his clothes that was left open and in the floor and there were boxes everywhere. Tom was so angry that he jumped in the box of clothes and meowed so that we would look at him and then proceeded to pee in the box....
