12/09 - SURPRISE Sunday!

Cool, that's a good idea.

 

I didn't think 555-555-5555 would work since its obviously a fake

 

I always just use @ChrisTurk's real phone number when I do those.

 

I know. People have told me elsewhere that I'm a terrible human being.

 

Well I'm sure these companies will probably figure out it's from the task, since it's a lot of people probably used the same idea. And the requester probably worked out something with the company, and mturk, to use fake info anyway. Since she has an instructions to do it.

 

Smart. I'm sure he doesn't mind.

Poor Chris, lol.

 

Well in particular, I got called a terrible human being for canceling an Uber trip because when the guy called, he sounded like too much drama. Person said that he probably was drunk and then because I canceled the trip, he got in his car and drove instead of ubering... Except that the minute I canceled another driver would have been sent. W/E. I can live with being a terrible human being.

 

Anyone want my VRAPI qual since it's hot garbage with the new format?

 

That his choice to come to you even though you cancelled, so, that's not too terrible.

She has a fake address/name/email listed in the instructions too. I was telling people to use it and a fake number as an auto fill till I was blue in the face the other day
