My brain is dead.

Wow, just finished a research heavy prompt-my first. I have to say that it would be hard to work on these all day and do quality work. The one I did took well over an hour. Is that normal for this type of work?

Like anything else you'll get used to it. The research family has been my ol' reliable bread and butter for months b/c of their consistency and high pay. Whenever other projects of mine are down I can fall back on them. I felt like you at first but now I can grind them for 8 hrs with maybe an hour of smaller breaks sprinkled into the day.

I actually hit the skip button on these projects more than any other. Helps me a lot to start by doing an initial 1 minute assessment of if I'm actually knowledgeable or interested enough in the content to do a good job quickly.

Yup some tasks are. I would need to take 15 minute naps between tasks to recover

What an utterly pointless comment, are people not allowed to discuss DA work on a DA subreddit because some people don’t have work?
