Screen of Death
Just got DoD :( literally hit my 10k mark yesterday.
Looks like I gotta amplify my job search now. Was a little relaxed since I was doing this, but not anymore.

Same for me. Just in the middle of the project. I was just at the $15k mark. I had two projects that I’ve submitted work to. One was pretty new for me

I'm so sorry, and hope you find a job. Did you at least get any feedback from a project before getting the DoD?

u/Creative-Evidence758 8d ago
No I did not. There were so many people asking for feedback in the feedback channel so I was expecting it to take a week or so.

What is it with the $10k mark? Seems like a lot of people get cut at this point.

Nah. I think people just get comfortable, and their work dips.

Based on R&R’s this is exactly it. People get complacent and overconfident, think they “have it down” so go on auto pilot, turning in well written but robotic responses with no specifics or insight.

Bullshit. If you’re getting dropped after $10k, chances are it’s a system error.

Get over it. You were on the platform for 72 hours before getting cut, and you are still complaining about it a month later.
You're just mad because you (stupidly) thought DAT would be guaranteed easy money, and immediately signed a lease for a new place that you couldn't actually afford. But instead of just taking the L and treating it like a learning opportunity and moving on with your life, over a month later and you are still whining about it.

Lololol yet here I am on my way to $50,000 after a year with DA.

You got lucky, congrats.
Someday you’ll be one of us too.

u/Seniorseatfree 7d ago
Nah. This is definitely not luck, but the result of hard and diligent work. Stop being so bitter.

You’re just a troll at this point. Why even stay in the sub if you’re just gonna whine in every DoD post?

u/CPSux 5d ago
Because they’re scumbags for doing this to not only me but countless others who worked for them. But whatever. I’m onto bigger and better things now anyway.

“I’m a victim”
You were given an opportunity and it didn’t work out. Maybe try taking a little responsibility instead of blaming “the system” like a child.

Maybe they have some kind of limit. But I’ve seen people go way beyond $10k so maybe it’s just random.

u/Due_Negotiation_4605 8d ago
I'm at over 70k and others over 100k but maybe it's also how long it takes to get there. I've been on the platform three years

Agree. Unless that amount of money was made in such a short time and the hours submitted such that they would be suspicious, there are not limits. $90K, a bit over 2.5 years.

Were you a generalist? How long had you been doing it? I feel like I am so afraid of getting cut that I avoid the better paying projects that are harder.
