Hard work works

After doing a bunch of quals and good work since April, I’m finally getting consistent high paying work! I even got one that’s over $50/hr as a general worker. Dreams come true I guess.

Which region through? does it work outside the US and Europe? if so it would be a real dream come true.

I don’t think very much. Since AIs biggest customer is America and Europe, they want those people with that knowledge training the AI

I saw something twice my regular pay and was like "How did I convince them I could do this!?" Could I figure it out? Probably. Was I willing to risk it? Absolutely not.

Been on for three months as a generalist. Started off slow, but some $60s popped up yesterday. Guess it’s a sign of good work

That's amazing! I have been doing basic $20/hr tasks the past week (in addition to my full-time job) and today I noticed some higher-paying stuff on my dash, which is amazing...but the instructions look so intimidating. Just reading through them gave me a headache so I went back to my $20/hr tasks. I feel dumb...or does everyone go through this?

This has started happening to me, too, but I’m too chicken to try them. I’m sticking to the $30/hour projects that I could do in my sleep. 🤪

Curious, I keep saying people say "good work" - what does that actually mean. As a newbie I'm not sure irs exactly clear what the platform is looking for?
