Oh man, never had carpal tunnel type issues before, but typing today is almost painful for my right hand. Kind of pain from elbow down to pinky and pinky is numbish. Only when I type.
Anyone else ever deal with mturk injuries?
I prop and coddle that whole arm and wrist.

I got myself a nice overuse strain when I first started by doing Crowdsurf too much. If my arm is hurting, I prop it up like SherryNotShirley @SherryNotShirley and if it's REALLY bad I try not to use it at all and do stretches/yoga/brace and coddle it until it feels better.

Since turking, I can't type for long periods at a time anymore unless I'm using a typewriter b/c the action is a bit different. Care for yo hands.

Thanks! I'm going to not do much today. I'm at 1.5X weekly goal already. Of course, here I am typing :D Perhaps I am glad the Alexandria's didn't last long today, so I'm not tempted.

I'm currently wearing 2 wrist braces, because protection from more dumb injury.
Limits mobility and keeps me from hurting my already hurt wrists (archery, guitar, violin, video games, general wrist-damaging activities over the years).

*edit*
And yes, I DO in fact, look like a massive nerd, wearing these.

Why ask that age demographic though? They don't even know what they're doing yet.. :LOL:
LMAO my thoughts exactly! I was like "Welly well well, 18-25 year old me would have a lot to learn from 33 year old me!" maybe that is their goal idk hahaha

I hope if someone does that hit, they fill us all in lol [survey content not disclosed, ofc]

As memory serves, that age demographic tends to think both that they invented it and that anyone over 25 (maybe 30) is too old and gross to even be thinking about such activities any more.

I'm home from work. We did carpet and vinyl in an apartment at a complex I used to have the cleaning contract with. The maintenance guys were all surprised/excited to see me, so that made my day.

Soooo....how has today been? Should I try to make some pennies or should I just play video games now?
