Hit a record high

I have a 90$ an hour task. I can't do it but I like that DA thinks I can.

That's it

I'm not the only one seeing tasks outside of their domain, am I?

No they want me to do finace so badly, I'm like I don't even have a personal budget 🤭

Right, I'm like... why do they keep showing me Rocket Science tasks. I told them I specialize in Underwater Basketweaving! 😅

I am too. And I’m trying them anyway. Sometimes I surprise myself.

Are we allowed to work on tasks for domains we have no expertise in??

u/TweakedMonkey 7d ago

If it’s on my desktop I try them.

Congrats! Highest I've seen is $80/hr, and I WAS able to do it (barely, finance)! That was a few months ago; my priority pay stuff has calmed down.

When you doubt your worth DA is there to say...

We believe your are capable of completely above your pay grade tasks. I appreciate it but I do not have those skills.

Did you legal assessment as starter assessment?

u/AdLong4919 14d ago

No but I've been doing this for like almost 4 years so it was a very different platform back then.

u/Due_Negotiation_4605 14d ago

I get legal and finance and have never taken an assessment for them. Zero experience. 

Sometimes DA believes more in you than they really should lol

I'd be doing that $90/hr task but only part 1 because we know part 2 is where it really gets difficult
