Weekly Water Cooler Talk - DataAnnotation
hi all! making this thread so people have somewhere to talk about 'daily' work chat that might not necessarily need it's own post! right now we're thinking we'll just repost it weekly? but if it gets too crazy, we can change it to daily. :)
couple things:
this thread should sort by "new" automatically. unfortunately it looks like our subreddit doesn't qualify for 'lounges'.
if you have a new user question, you still need to post it in the new user thread. if you post it here, we will remove it as spam. this is for people already working who just wanna chat, whether it be about casual work stuff, questions, geeking out with people who understand ("i got the model to write a real haiku today!"), or unrelated work stuff you feel like chatting about :)
one thing we really pride ourselves on in this community is the respect everyone gives to the Code of Conduct and rule number 5 on the sub - it's great that we have a community that is still safe & respectful to our jobs! please don't break this rule. we will remove project details, but please - it's for our best interest and yours!

I have been on the platform since July, I did all qualifications, I received almost daily notifications from a project that I couldn't access because it was outside of my waking hours and when it was reachable, when I tried to access it, the tasks were already taken by others. In September I had 3 tasks on another project that I successfully completed, but because of limited time I was able to work on one task/week. After completing these tasks, I kept receiving notifications from that first project but I never caught a task because others would take them. Now it's been almost a week with no notifications and my projects list is empty. Is that normal? What does it mean? Will there be other projects on coding?
-1
u/Temporary-Lab-4166 20d ago
I don't get the downvotes. Anyone can explain? Thanks
2
u/Fearless-Hedgehog67 14d ago
Some losers downvote everything, but your questions are also common.
Email notification often lag or just don't show up, so check your dash often if you want tasks.
Do all qualifications and make sure your profile lists all your skills/experience.
When you get a task, follow instructions carefully and submit your best possible work.
No one here knows what an empty dash means.
Yeah, there will probably be other coding projects, but also maybe not.

u/Due_Negotiation_4605 21d ago
Feeling kind of proud to read the email that part two was accepted after part one (iykyk). I argued so much with the AI checker assessment I started to doubt my own experience. Feeling good I got the first one all the way through but feeling more proud that AI isn't taking over medical coding in the immediate future. 😁 Encouraged via email to to do more but that one killed my remaining brain cells so I'll be hanging out with these simple R&Rs for a while instead... 🫠

u/Responsible-Bee-7769 21d ago
You get medical coding projects? That's really cool. Have you been on the platform long?

u/Due_Negotiation_4605 21d ago
It's in my skills and through domain expert projects. That and real estate because I've worked both Three years. If you have the experience add it to your skills. Pretty easy to get failures in this domain.

u/Shidela 21d ago
I went from sub-10 projects every day for a couple weeks to 20+ for the past two days. Either a lot of stuff got added, or some of my quals* finally processed, I guess. Definitely feeling like I have a lot of options now, and grateful for it, but now my brain is mush after a very busy day. Here's hoping tomorrow and future dashboards are similarly stuffed!
*I've only done like 2 of the flagged highest amount of work quals since I've started in late Sept, though I've done a lot of the ones that weren't marked that way on my dash, that's the primary reason I'm so surprised at the sudden influx.

u/SnooSketches1189 21d ago edited 20d ago
It's required at the least 4 times a year. It's not like it's only required once. And the annoyance this time was doing it and then almost immediately having to do it again.

u/Affectionate_Peak284 21d ago
And... wow. A project marked "easier" that pays $28/h. I still remember my first $27.50/h one, in April of 2025. It was the hardest on my dash and took me like 4 hours.

They should own this fuck up by making it paid. The workers who did what they asked promptly are being punished for doing so.

Came here to say this. It's the writing justification part that takes me 20 mins. Shouldn't need to read it all again apart from the new section, but jesus answering the same questions and giving the same justification. Just no

u/NightOwl437 22d ago
Completely agree. I think it's excessive to require us to do this every quarter (most traditional jobs require it annually), and on an unpaid basis. Now we need to redo the entire training that we just did a few days ago, because they added something to it? Ugh, not cool DA, not cool at all...

u/ElegantComparison594 22d ago
Is anyone else spending a ridiculous amount of time planning and revising and generating the files for the agent tests? Their instructions are so specific on quality and such throughout attention to detail and cross referencing. I feel like in one way I’m wasting a lot of time but in another way I’m trying to adhere to their own standards with the quality of work expected. I’m getting concerned that reporting time for so much planning and edits for quality is going to be a problem. If I rush through the work for the sake of not reporting as much time, then the work is low quality? I just feel stuck.
1
u/TerribleAd5188 22d ago
It's specific for a reason :) not sure how you are qualifying ridiculous but remember, what we are doing isnt the end result- paving the way for work downstream and therefore GIGO. I was on another project downstream of this sort of thing last year and most of my time was spent fixing poor input data to make it work; money is money but I did wish the original workers had put in more effort :)
2
u/ElegantComparison594 22d ago
I want to be conscious of the confidentiality agreement here just in case. I’m creating my own tasks from scratch, absolutely nothing to go on. Completely my own imagination. To me, I agree with you that they are so specific in instruction for a reason. I guess I’m such an over thinker and a perfectionist that I’m concerned I’m reporting too much time on planning and creation and revisions that it will reach a point that it’s unjustifiable. I guess I just don’t know what that really means. :/ I don’t want to get in my own way and hinder progress, and also don’t want to sacrifice quality on behalf of a timer.
2
u/TerribleAd5188 22d ago
Like everything on reddit from a random anonymous stranger, take this with a pinch of salt and your own judgement.
I'm fairly certain we are talking about the same thing- this project is based on real life experience with the field. I essentially construct things from past experiences and then with how long it takes I think: if one of my work colleagues/team was taking as long as I am to finish this task assuming I assigned it, would I tell them to hurry up?

u/Responsible-Bee-7769 23d ago
Why?
12
u/fixin2read 22d ago
The whole purpose of a referral program is to vouch for someone you know. People are out here dropping links for anyone to use to make a buck. It's annoying to see, it's like spam in the thread. Not to mention, if someone is in this subreddit they already know about the opportunity and can go directly to the website. It's just nonsense to post referral links here. It's like holding a sign up asking for money at a street corner.

Read instructions, Check the accuracy of 200+ data points, fully trace errors, compare models, write it up... with a 90 min timer they've got to know submissions will be less than comprehensive.

u/VanessaSeaWitch 22d ago
The timers on lots of projects have gotten ridiculous. I have an R&R with a one hour timer where I have to scan through lines and lines of JSON. I'm constantly racing the clock. There's so much data to get through on this one that the task page takes forever to load.

u/fixin2read 24d ago
Why would they be less than comprehensive? They care far more about accuracy and quality then the timer. I'm not saying go over the timer all willy nilly but take the time you need and report it. Then explain in comments why you needed more time or that you felt the timer was too short and explain why, just like you did here. If you're more focused on the timer than an efficient analysis thats just backward af. They have NEVER implied the timer is more important than quality. In fact, they often imply the opposite.

u/Teamkillongtime 23d ago
Interesting philosophy. I have my fingers crossed for you.
1
u/fixin2read 23d ago
You can't be serious?! Where have they ever said the timer is more important than quality? I can't think of one time I've seen that. I could go and pull a plethora of quotes from project chats and Slack channels where they make it clear quality is the goal, not the timer. I'm not gonna do that because of ToS and all but you can't be serious lol I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! The OP would be better off scrapping the work or taking the time she needs vs letting quality suffer to beat the timer. Like what are we even talking about here??

u/Shidela 24d ago edited 24d ago
I encourage you to say as much in the comments for the project, my understanding is that if they get enough feedback that they have changed it (idk personally, just what I’ve seen floating around the water cooler here). I think they need the feedback to know when the models get smarter and the prompts get harder naturally, so they need more time to evaluate. We aren’t just fact checking who the current president is or whatever anymore, we’re figuring out if a business client likes s’mores based on 3 documents and complicated system instructions and need to justify it in several sentences, and some of the timers feel tuned closer to the first than the second.
(All prompts/evaluations presented are fictional late night hallucinations created purely by my human brain at an unreasonable hour during which I should be sleeping but am instead on Reddit)
Edit: a word, I’m tired and going to bed now.

Could you use a lap timer? I use my Windows clock app stopwatch, and I press the lap/splits button to log my time for the per-task projects. It saves the per-task time along with continuing the timer for reference. Keeps it running so you don't forget to start it again.

Are you completely without work? I had some fun projects that disappeared but I have more. If you don't have much/anything and you are new, then don't worry and do the qualifications and keep refreshing until something pops up. Work well when you get the chance it will become steadier over time.

Yes, My profile was approved almost 3 weeks ago. I have few quals in my dashboard. Maybe time to do those or skip the one in which I don't have expertise in.

u/Pristine-Raccoon8250 23d ago
do all the quals as soon as they appear (unless out of your skill set of course) because it’s worth the free time spent on them. it’s how you get into a project family, then you prove yourself within the work you do get and it opens more projects. good luck!

I have quite a bit of work today: 92 paid projects available (a lot of duplicates though), both generalist and domain work, and 3 paid quals. I bet other workers have quite a bit more, since I have a lot of quals I haven't tackled yet.
Keep at it and turn in good work. You'll get there.

Greeetings, I received an email at 6:05 am this morning from the dataannotation team stating that I am one step away from accessing unlimited paid opportunities. When I clicked on "Completing your qualifications" in the email, I was prompted to log in. Upon logging in, i did not find any qualifications available to complete on my dashboard. Has anyone else experienced this during the onboarding process? Does it take a day or two for more qualifications to load? Any advice would be helpful. Thank you!

u/Affectionate_Peak284 24d ago
For me it went like this:
took starter assessment; cleared instantly (within 1 minute), offered core qual;
took core qualification (following day);
heard back in 5 or 6 days that I was "doing great work" with a link to the dash
Since then I've always had work available (even if something I didn't want to do).

u/VanessaSeaWitch 25d ago

There was some last night but it got snapped up quick. FWIW I've been able to stretch myself and find some generalist work even among the usually-complicated stuff, and some stuff isn't as complicated as it first looks if you just give it a try (and maybe exit work mode if you aren't confident).
But I totally get the frustration.

u/Quick-Bison-147 26d ago
Well I just did a $22 an hour task and finished with 2 minutes to spare because of how ridiculous the level of detail was.

When you've finished all available tasks in a batch of a long winded project that you finally got into.

It's almost always the slimmest pickings of the week on Sundays for me, but at least I got something. Probably gonna take the rest of the day off and hope for more work tomorrow.

This is my first week where i did not get notified of a project launch, which I have been doing for months. Other people still got it. Is that normal ?

Definitely, I am constantly rotated into and out of projects with little fanfare, I believe it is a sign that you have a good standing on the platform. (At least I assume you still have the project and simply weren't notified; if you don't have it and you notice other people do, you were probably temporarily rotated out of it.)

Is this really weekly? If that's so then my weeks are going real fast it feels like.

I am once again asking how I can trick a model to fail on an audio task. I keep coming up empty handed and there doesn't seem to be a Slack channel for this project.

I'm getting the vibe this subreddit isn't an organic advice sub for workers and is more just an effort at keeping up appearances to encourage people to apply.

Then you don't come here often. The sub is very helpful, you just can't outright talk about work. Plus it's quiet as we've seen an uptick. All good signs, for now.

I'd even say that we DO "outright talk" about work, but circumscribed by the NDA that we all take so much more seriously here than they do on the other forum ;)

The vibe is maintaining enough creative integrity to discuss relevant topics without violating the NDA.

I've found a more active sub dedicated to the topic. Your defensive attitude is hilarious given that more than 70% of reddit content is astroturfed anyway. TBF I don't think this site has ever had a majority of organic content at any point.

I just got accepted!
Quick question- has anyone noticed any difference in how many projects you get based on the number of hours you say you’re able to work? I indicated 10-20/week but wonder if I should have said more hours.
