You've seen this before. There is nothing new here. Even the fingers on the keys are the same...those were the wonkiest sliders I ever saw, tough. And what is it about making the bubbles as tiny as possible.? Don't they know I'm old and half blind.

None of those are new. It's all the same. Individuals react individually. Symptoms are individual, depending on personal health characteristics.

Starts out talking about how you can do penny hits (receipts, transcriptions, labeling photos), then about average pay and studies conducted about MTurk (along with other survey and crowdwork sites), and ends up talking about how people can do better by being choosy about what work they do and using extensions.

Hopefully, people get discouraged after the first few paragraphs and don't learn of some of the tips and tricks.

I can bet 80% of workers who sign up never stick it out till 1K, 5K or even worse 10K hits when they have to do penny hits or p9r's to get their numbers up they just bolt. I was one of those but stuck it out since i had very few choices at that time
