    Maybe instead of walking away and crying she should figure out how to update her scripts.

    Well I mean any article that sites Siddharth Suri as having data that can differentiate an ass from an elbow is a bad sign.

    Pros:
    Thoroughly ridiculous. This seems to have been designed for toddlers, and I laughed through the whole thing. Generous pay, and crazy easy.
    Cons:
    The voices really are obnoxious if you aren't laughing.

    I'm surprised she was still making so little while having scripts and being desperate for scraping together extra money. Why wouldn't she have reached out to see what other workers were saying/suggesting/doing?

    By 2027, nearly 5 in 5 Turkers may transition to believing that the flavor-of-the-week articles demonizing crowdsource work by citing "evidence" of dumbfucks are complete horseshit, according to the THFYM Institute for Tomfuckery, a foundation that has for about five years been studying the bullshit that people will read and believe online.

    Hahahahahahaha, silly Erika. Don't go get a glass of water, that's why you have to go to the bathroom. Surely that's covered on the GED.

    It says in the article that she used Reddit, so she's very likely your average r/mturk poster. These articles never interview people who make actual good money on mturk because it doesn't suit their agenda, only third worlders and your average r/mturk poster.

    How is the poor girl supposed to think of genius ideas like that with her blood sugar being so low because of the payment system? Between crying spells and attempts to decipher the cryptic instructions the poor girl can barely urinate or drink water.

    Maybe she should live within her means, $20/$30 should not be the difference between being able to eat. I mean, I don't know 100% of her situation, but if you cannot even afford rice and beans, you should reconsider your expenses.
