The first thing on my TM that went off was Tanner and I was all excited for some unexpected late-night Tanner action. Then I saw Web Test go off and I knew it was all a lie. :(

I don't know why we're acting like that's such an impossible number. I mean it's clearly not an average number, but my friend got a job at Google with a CS degree straight out of school last year and his salary+stock options for signing is like $110K.

There are definitely jobs out in certain sectors that easily pay that much

yea, not an impossible number for sure, but more like an unlikely number, unless they have a STEM degree or something similar

I HAVE my degree and I'm here on mturk. HOW DO I MAKE 75k??
You and me both...working on a PhD and I still need to turk. But I refuse to sit in a little Cubicle.

Whats his job though???
He works as a operations assistant for a data research and lab firm. He is the lowest man on the totem pole at his place. I remember when he was just an intern they were paying him 45k. When he got the job he got 75k. It will all work out, he will file for bankruptcy before he is 30 and I will turk right past him.

It's because you're so perfect that it'd be impossible for you to be a mere human. That's totally what I meant and it's not me not backtracking because I just remembered you're an Admin :heart:

If I made 110k a year I could achieve my dream and buy one of these.

I had a job where I made more than $60K per year right out of college. But it was the worst most stressful crap job ever. I'd go home on my lunch breaks, drink a bunch and go back to work. Some days driving to work I sort of hoped I would get into a car accident so I wouldn't have to go to work, it was that bad. So, yeah. Money isn't always everything.

I'm not taking the effort to go edit the code, but I can guarantee to fix TM all you need to do is update the There are no more hits available message in the code to the new "
There are no HITs in this group available to you at the moment." message if someone wants to do it themselves

You should look into writing short articles and skip turk. They pay sucks but once you get going you can make some decent cash. My old roommate had a Journalism Degree, she not sell's insurance.

I have a journalism degree.
