    Hello all,

    I just discovered this morning that the forum/community I used to know is gone [TurkerNation], or best I can tell, has changed so much that it's no longer recognizable. I am hoping to find something similar on this site.

    I have been turking since 2015 on a part time basis, meaning I have a full-time job [physical science research] and fill in downtime with crowdsource work. I do not have Masters cert, have ~18k approved and 3 rejections. I primarily use MTS on 3s scan for jobs that pay >$0.85. I despise writing tasks, can't type for shit, can't program in any language other than BASIC, don't know any spoken/written languages other than English, have no super-qual for anything, and find batch work to be mostly awful (man I miss those Mosaic CCTV hits though). My personal crowdsouce goals are $5/day, $150/mo which has been a challenge to achieve these days. I also work for Prolific at times, though work on that platform has dried up a lot lately too [along with my workplace IP blocked from participation]
    On a personal level, I am a recently widowed 48 year old guy living in a suburb of Chicago, raising 3 teenagers as best I can. I used to say I did crowdsource work for 'goof around' money, but that's not really the case anymore. I am happy to help out in the forum if I know the answer to something [rare] and am probably more likely to lurk than participate at least for a while.
    Thanks for making it this far, now back to work slacker! haha

    Welcome to the hub.

    Hop over to the daily thread and join in the discussion as that is where 90% of the talking happens. It's also a great place to pick up hits/ask questions since (most) all of us have live update on and watch the forums while we work.
