    If it's important, just tell them you do mturk no need to beat around the bush. You'll need to explain what mturk is, because they almost certainly have no idea what it is. You have no employer. Mturk is a platform where various entities post microtasks for workers. You'll need to explain that you'll have issues providing proof of an employer/employee relationship - as there really isnt one.

    I had a hell of a time with this bullshit when i got a mortgage. I would have been better off not even mentioning mturk at all, but since I did - their system required all sorts of bullshit I couldn't provide. A stupid essay i wrote about what mturk is is what finally cleared things up - despite needing all sorts of higher-ups signing off on it.

    Good luck.

    I just now realized today isn't Sunday. Guess that's what happens when the flu and stomach bug invade the house at the same time.

    Basically I gave a bunch of examples of why entities would need crowd work and explained that mturk is a platform/marketplace that allows this to happen.

    I referenced c-sats, sergey, psychological surveys, etc and explained why they would want to pay 1000 people 1 dollar instead of 1 person 1000 dollars.

    Had to dumb down everything quite a bit.

    Also made mspaint infographics with arrows showing bank statement deposits and how they relate to my mturk dashboard screenshots.

    The whole thing was a huge pita and reflecting on it is making me angry.

    I don't turk that much (maybe like $10-15 per day, a great day is $25) so this is outrageous to me. I want to stop cause I'm way over "goal" but I want to stay focussed and keep pushing on!
