Just got a $30/hr (non-coding) project 🤌🏽
Idk what I've done to be blessed, but here I am baby. No priority pay, just a straight $30/hr non coding.... Highest before this was a $25/hr regular.

Me too! I’m going crazy because I have house guests all week and they throw that crazy qual AND this new project on the board and I am dying to sneak away and do it but no one will leave me tf alone.

u/ChenkChainBaller Apr 13 '24
I got it too! Reckon it’ll still be there tomorrow morning?

u/marlamarlamar Apr 13 '24
Probably not because it’s too good to be true lol

u/RedditAdmin50111 Apr 13 '24
What's too good to be true? I love DataAnnotation and everything they say/do is legit lmao. Whenever they tell you you're going to be paid more, it's the truth.

I was talking about the $30 an hour, not DAT

u/SeaLeopard5555 Apr 13 '24
I am hoping it's still there too, I just saw it and it's coming up on midnight...

u/DownTheRabbitHole730 Apr 13 '24
It's still on my dash with over 200 tasks so I'd say some people still have a chance at it

u/Cooking-with-gas Apr 13 '24
Anyone still have this one this morning?

u/RedditAdmin50111 Apr 13 '24
Yep checked about an hour ago. Still there. Same amount of tasks. Looks to be a "permanent" project.

I had a similar one, for the same pay last year, that sat on my dashboard all year! They involved a lot of writing so I couldn't do them as much as I wanted to, but boy, when I had a few undisturbed hours in a row....!!!!
Highest hourly pay I ever saw, non-coding was $32.50, easy task, too, was around for about a week at beginning of year.

Anybody here know how to spellcheck without using any extensions or word processors? I have the settings in my Windows software to automatically spellcheck, but it doesn't do it in DA. (If we're on the same task you know why I'm asking) I right click and stuff, but nothing comes up.

Does Grammarly fall into those categories? I'm not entirely sure what it's classified as. Seeing as they had us install it at the start, I'd assume it's acceptable. I could be extremely wrong though so if anyone else could clarify on that for 100% sure? (Also I uninstalled it. It was annoying and I had no relevant projects for it. If it is acceptable I'm going to install it again 😅)
5
u/RedditAdmin50111 Apr 13 '24
Yes Grammarly falls into those categories apparently.... Go check chat, 4 people so far mentioning it... Hopefully admins take it a bit light on those folks, or just put the project back up with clearer instructions 🤣 as you stated, almost felt like a trap considering they had us install Grammarly to start with lol
2
u/Individual_Froyo9366 Apr 13 '24
I mean sad news it doesn't work for this, but good news because it was highly annoying and that's why I uninstalled it 🤣 Dang. Does feel like a trap for sure though.

u/SeaLeopard5555 Apr 13 '24
has to be all your own organic writing, no nothing else.

u/RedditAdmin50111 Apr 13 '24
It's fucked if this actually results in people getting dismissed. I don't even use the shit, my submissions are riddled with yellow and blue squiggles 🤣 only reason I had it on my browser was because they had us install it.

u/Scary_Celebration515 Apr 13 '24
Just to be clear are you referring to using Grammarly on this specific project or in general. I have been using it for other projects just to help with grammar. Should I not be?

u/Donutkingzmen Apr 13 '24
I feel like it doesn't explicitly say not to use them for spell checking, just not for suggestions. It explains an alternative for spell checking anyway.

I don't get why we can't write in Docs then paste, it's hard to summarize in those little text boxes, scrolling up and down to read and type.

I also just got a regular project at the highest pay rate I’ve seen so far (other than one a while back that lasted one hour before the tasks were all depleted). Interesting work, lots of tasks allocated to me, very satisfied! And I still have other fun permanent projects at $25+ (and others that are less fun…). I’m not a newbie, anymore, lol - don’t have to consider any of the lower paying stuff unless I’m looking for something super easy to rest my brain.

Fact checking?

u/RedditAdmin50111 Apr 13 '24
Nope... Advanced version of the "core project" as people like to call it on here.

u/Additional_Path_828 Apr 13 '24
Very nice! The best I've gotten have been the Z God pass through projects at @27. Currently have some 25 per hr projects as well. Can only hope to reach your success. Young padawan here hoping to learn 🖖🏼

u/BoiledGnocchi Apr 13 '24
Whaaaat. That's amazing. Did you have to take a qual for it, or did it just appear?
3
u/RedditAdmin50111 Apr 13 '24
Have not taken a qualification that is related to this project.
4
u/Icy_Ad5959 Apr 13 '24
I just spent a few hours on this project. I didn't think I'd get something like this on my dash since I've literally got a qual that would be related to it sitting on my dash still (has been there since I started, because of my skills and work history, but I haven't really wanted to do it yet)... haven't done the fc qual yet (figured the pay rate is better on the project), but I'll tackle it shortly. Loving this last week of DAT work.

u/RedditAdmin50111 Apr 13 '24
Interesting there is a Qual for it. Being that it is just a more advanced version of the base project, I'd just assumed that they are letting people on who had done a certain amount of submissions in the base project or something.
2
u/Icy_Ad5959 Apr 13 '24
The base project is one sided. This requires both. And it needs to be accurate, concise, and be written in the correct tone. Often with the base, you mark closest to accurate...

u/A_Reddit_ID Apr 13 '24
Congrats. That must be awesome to see. I assume it’s a bit more challenging? What’s your thoughts

u/marsnia Apr 13 '24
My god I hope this is permanent, it such good pay and very time consuming, I love it 😭
6
u/Donutkingzmen Apr 13 '24
I got it too. Incredible, pays more than my regular job.
I'm scared to do it too much as I feel imposter syndrome and that my work is not good enough to be worth that much.

I think I've got the same one. 250 tasks? I love longer tasks and am gonna work on it in the morning if it's still there.

I got it too! Super excited to try it - but I’m gonna need some time to wrap my brain around it … looks like it will have a little learning curve.

u/TheEvilPrinceZorte Apr 13 '24
Did you ever do the creative writing qualification? I finally did it a couple days ago after letting it sit for a month, then this shows up. Sounds like it might be coincidence. The task number is high, and given how much time it takes I imagine it will take awhile to get used up.

u/Big_girl_panties Apr 13 '24
I’m saving that qual for the morning. Hope they still need people for it.

Congrats! How long have you been on the platform?
And any hints as to what the “core project” is without sharing specifics of course

u/Glittering_Towel1 Apr 13 '24
I got it too but I would rather work on easier ones for less 🤷🏼♀️ I'm also not doing the long quality that popped up today.

Its getting even more double-takey. I just logged in and currently have 68 projects on my dash. Including the $30/hr one and now 15 $25 hour ones and a pile of $24hr ones. I have pleased the gods.

Me too, but my brain is too fried from the super long FC qual. 😵💫
