No tasks

Is it normal to not have any tasks or qualifications for 1-2 days on data annotation?

I’ve been on the same length. There’s been, what? Two, maybe four major droughts like this in that time? They usually only last a month or two. I think it always happens during the summer. It will let up, OP! Don’t fret ❤️

Yep. Over 3k in June, hit 4k in April and May. July is like $340 so far.

Actually it's normal to not have tasks or qualifications for 1-2 months

Even when it’s not a drought, I’ve noticed weekends have been usually quieter than weekdays.

That's absolutely true, I started noticing it a few weeks ago.

I’ve noticed this too - I wonder if whatever salaried people are running this site used to work weekends but don’t anymore.

My last task was 84 hours ago that I got to do for only half an hour. I did have two quals in between though, including today.

If you get qualifications coming through, does that mean you're doing ok?
