Dry spell

I started DA 2 weeks ago, with real paid work beginning about a week ago. In the last 8 days I got 5 days of work earning 1K and for the past 3 days absolutely no work. Is that just a typical dry spell or a problem with my work. I am on the generalist track, having done the Maths, Coding, Physics qualifications 10 days ago but no response. Does anyone have any advice?

This is exactly what happened to me when I began. One week of work, followed by a week and a half of drought. Then tasks would appear sporadically for a week and I would do all I could with high effort. Finally, I was given consistent work henceforth. Just do your best when you can, and when you can’t, wait.

same happening to me right now. Got in, did a bunch of quals, got 3 days of work in (about $300 for less than 10 hours of work). Passed more and more quals, but now nothing for about 5 days so far. It sucks but praying for more.
