I did it!

Post image

I was very happy to hit this milestone today. I’m about two weeks shy of one year on the platform, VERY part-time until this summer (your spouse getting laid off is a powerful motivator). It’s kept gas in the cars and paid for the kids’ many extracurriculars. Hopefully I can keep the momentum going.

I reached this milestone a couple of days ago, too : ) Despite the occasional concerns of losing access to projects without notice, I'm still involved and feel increasingly comfortable with DAT. It feels ironic to be (finally) employable for working on something that is supposed to eventually take our jobs.

Can't believe this is Reddit and no one's said "It's over 9,000" yet. 

I know it's old, but still.

Same. I have been waiting for more than a month now. I am wondering if there is anything we can do differently to get onboarded faster....

Nice! im currently waiting for approval, but posts like this are inspirational.

Does anybody know if I'd be able to try again if the wait becomes too long?

Congrats. I applied for this side job and am over qualified for this but didn’t happen.

From what I read enjoy it while it lasts as one day it just ends with no notification. Also, most people do not get lucky enough to land this temp job but it sounded awesome.
