04/24 - Money Monday!

Tim and I are buds now.

Anyone who can tell me if ProductRnR is harsh about rejections?

 

They never reject, only pull your qual to do them

 

I was just about to say the same thing. Cool dude. Call took 9 minutes for me. Definitely worth if you go to the gym.

 

It's because Walmart and Walmart.com are considered two separate things by them. Had a fun time getting the tires I ordered from Walmart.com installed on my car with the same warranties and everyting.

 

Exceptional fisherman + excellent cook = fantastic dinner and happy girlfriend.

*sigh* Love him.

Anything good happening this evening?

 

That phone call really did only take me about five minutes though

 

Two things you can do to help in the future..

1) If its just default Amazon survey HITs auto-submitting, you can run a script that'll attach the required field to the survey code textbox they use.

Code:

$('#surveycode').attr('required', true)

If his fancy script is the same as his not fancy script you can replace the autosubmit w/ this and it should work:

Code:

var autosubmit = ()=>{
if ($(':text').length ) { return false; }
else { $(matrix[13]).click(); }
};

If its not.. @Kadauchi can probably find more ingenious or "safe" ways to do this (and probably do it in vanilla js since he's a purist like that). I can't think of a HIT where I'd give a shit about keybindings that would also have a text box but who knows. Still better than autosubmitting surveys over and over and praying requesters don't notice.

 

Second question about ProductRnR, they have a hit where you classify websites, some of the websites are blank white screens in their example of them, but if I click the link I can classify them. Which should I classify them based on, their version or my version?

 

I did one other phone based hit today where I became a Quality Review rep or whatever, that one was a lot more nerve-racking

 

That picture though! Omg.

hey, I can explain this, believe it or not. I used to work at walmart, as a backhouse stock person (ICS). oftentimes the people out on the floor only have a general idea of what's in their area. they keep getting moved around. overnight people have a better idea of what is where, and ics. anyway, the item you were looking for was probably 'binned' in a specific location in the back warehouse, where they could enter the item number, and the rf gun will tell them exactly what location to go to find the item. when an overnight stock person pulls items from the back, what happens is one person pulls items from the back, loads a cart or pallet, and brings it out near the department. then another person puts the stuff away, if they can find the right spot. otherwise, they send it back. sometimes the shelves are not set up properly, or wrong items are there, or any number of things that would cause a person to say "I'm not being paid enough to spend more than a few moments on this item, if I don't clear the pallet I'll get slapped, kicked, or worse" so they look and if they can't place it they put it on their 'overstock' cart, and send it back, to be brought back out the next night. when it gets sent back to the storage/back, it gets scanned into a putway location. therefore, when you order online, the order says "go to [this location] and get [this item]" so it's hard to miss, unless it's not there.

 

Hit Finder not working for anyone else?

 

It is working for me. Did you get logged out?
