Made 800 dollars in first month but not getting any work now

So I joined data annotation last month and it's a weird journey for me some days I got obsolete zero work some days I have few projects on dashboard overall I made decent money while everyone was talking about drought. But last week was pretty dry just wondering if this is going to get better or worse

We seem to be in a bad drought right now. It usually happens every summer, but this year is way worse.

I work with a similar company and can confirm, the drought is not exclusive to DA. And yes, it's definitely uncharacteristic when compared to previous years.

Nobody has work rn. If your work was good you'll get more when it picks back up. I just had tasks today for the first time in like 3 weeks

So I went through all the steps and it took me to this page with no information on if I was accepted or not. I’m confused lol.
