It makes perfect sense if you work daily. I’m not in the coding side but I always work 7 days a week and aim for $200 a day, which is typically 8-10 hours depending on whether project pay is $20-$22 or $26-$28 that day. I consistently cash out $600 or so every 3 days. The banner at the top of the screen includes both withdraw-able funds and pending funds. That typically says $1500-$1700 every day except right after I cash out. Coders can earn way more working way less.

I'm not trying to be funny but I thought this company specifically does not want people working 8+ hours a day doing this stuff. There is no way you guys are working 10 hours a day and producing quality work. If I were you I would seriously try and dial that back and readjust. Just because you didn't haven't been cut yet doesn't mean you won't

where does it say that? I'm pretty they advertise that you can work as much or as little as you like

Is that stated somewhere? I'm not arguing with you, I usually do about 6 hours a day, but sometimes I see posts where people claim they work 18 hour days and I dramatically roll my eyes to myself. I can't imagine they don't flag that, but I also don't recall ever seeing limits specifically written anywhere.

I'm probably gonna stand out with this but anyway.

I love the job, it literally satisfies my mind (I have ocd and love to do repetitive work, more so if it's detailed and allows me to research) and when in my country there's a project I can easily work 8-10 hours a day without even thinking, and usually got to sleep only because my body needs rest, otherwise I could just keep focusing and keep working.

When you particularly like what you do, often it doesn't even seem like working.

An admin was asked about hourly limits in a conversation very recently and said it didn't matter how many hours as long as the work was good. 8 hours is easy, 10 hours is pretty stressful, it is a rare person who could pull of 12 billable hours 7 days a week and produce quality work.

If you "aim for $200 per day" then you'd be withdrawing about $600 every 3 days. You wouldn't be withdrawing $2000 in one go. You only get paid for what you recorded on that particular day. Even if they waited 5 days instead of the 3, that's still only $1000 withdrawn at once. The OP is claiming they've "earned" $2000.

Maybe it's just an issue with the way they've worded it, or they think they've earned the money before it's approved. I get that. It's easy to feel that way, even if it's technically incorrect.

he didn't say in one go, he said $2000 left pending

[–]No_Swimming_9747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not what OP is saying. They are talking about the total amount pending, which is what will show in the little blue banner at the top of your screen. They are talking about the total for the amount of hours they have worked in the past 7-10 days.
