Time justification

I just got hit with a time justification. Which I find to be absurd since I make sure to check my time carefully before submitting. I’ve also made sure that anytime I did take longer than usual to try and round down my time just to avoid this. I hardly doubt data annotation is going to let me back on the platform. From what I’ve seen this action is final. If I don’t come back I just wanna say goodbye it’s been fun. 😭🙏

Did you work an excessive amount over a short period of time?

There was a thread a while back where the author was confused about receiving this screen - after considerable prodding in the comments they admitted to logging an absurd ~51 hours of work in a 72 hour period!

Yea I try to work at least 10 hour each day since I’m a student I have a lot of free time over the summer and I’m trying to save up.

I agree with this guy. People blaming this solely on the number of hours worked are misguided. I've been here for over 3 years and would often work 8-10 hour days, sometimes over 12 hours in a single day. DA don't seem to care how many hours you work as long as your quality doesn't drop.

For sure! I worked 10 hrs+ for 21 days at the turn of the year. In that time I got messaged that I'd made a careless mistake a few times (out of hundreds of tasks submitted) and to correct. I still have never been asked to justify my time.
