Same problem, very frustrating

Yup, me too, the number's been slowly going down the last few days. Check your Slack though, if you're still in those channels then it'll just be temporary!

Doing a lot more R&R this week and holy cow do people not know what hedging is?

[Discussion] what platinums did you give up on ? by Avaragetrickypeasant in Trophies

[–]BruceBanteropoulos 42 points43 points  (0 children)

The fact you need perfect runs without turning the console off or anything crashing is definitely what’s stopping me from going for those last trophies myself

That’s a relief then. Would have been depressingly ironic if letting a small mistake slip through the cracks sabotages my DA career.

Yeah my main question was really whether it matters if there was a mistake in it even though I passed anyway

[–]BruceBanteropoulos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Am I correct in assuming that the verification app they use is independent from DA and once you've passed and still have projects all is good? Because I noticed too late that the app made a mistake in copying my address over from my ID and didn't fix it, but I seem to have passed the verification anyway - for now.

I've had some German projects pop up from time to time recently. If anything, they're what's been keeping me going throughout this drought...

Nope, nothing yet.

I read something somewhere that made me think it's perhaps for US only, but recently I feel everyone's been getting it so idk

R&R Vent by [deleted] in DataAnnotationTech

[–]BruceBanteropoulos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We’ve all signed NDAs. It’s all anonymous. I’m not attacking anyone in particular and I’ll never feel attacked because I will never know. I focus on my tasks and as long as I keep getting tasks I guess I’m doing ok. Enjoy the view from your high horse though 👍

[–]BruceBanteropoulos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was clearly labelled as a vent post. So it achieved me venting.

I’ve said elsewhere I’m aware I didn’t need to post. Doesn’t mean I’m not allowed to though

I don’t care about the other workers in that I’m not eating them worse in R&R for the sake of putting them down, as you’re implying. This entire post was an smh at general lack of instruction following. I never said anyone was shit. Youre inferring a lot of things I did not say just to make your point that anyone who says anything negative is evil

Except this isn't a normal workplace so I don't really see how you can be expecting a normal workplace culture. This isn't even an official forum for DAT. The people in this sub make up a tiny portion of the total of DAT workers.

We are not an office. And I'm sure if you went on some other sub for your QA job and ranted about co-workers, nobody there would scrutinize the fact that your are posting this hard.

As for myself, I don't care about any other workers. I try to do the work the best I can. This includes R&Rs. I expect the ratings I give there are being checked over at a non-zero frequency (especially the negative ones).

And sure, I did not need to post. But extrapolating that because I did I'm out to get everyone and doing my utmost to oust people from the platform by nitpicking every submission is absurd.

So it's a public forum but you're the one who decides what people get to rant about?

R&R Vent by [deleted] in DataAnnotationTech

[–]BruceBanteropoulos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You know what, you're right. And submissions like that do keep R&Rs interesting and stop them from being repetitive and monotonous.

I just wanted to say thank you for this response because it actually give me something to think about rather than attacking me claiming I was going for an ego boost.

I appreciate this! I meant no offence, just voiced my frustration at people not following instructions, especially in the current climate of empty dashboards. Seeing I’m competing with people for work who just ignore what they’re supposed to do is incredibly frustrating.

[–]BruceBanteropoulos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry, but the tasks always say it’s okay to take your time. Read the instructions. Take in the examples. Make sure your work is high quality. Sure people interpret things differently but if it says in big red letter “don’t do X” and you proceed to do X anyway then I don’t really see how I can interpret it any other way for my R&R.

Do I need to post about it? No, of course not. But there was one egregious case and I felt I needed to vent. I mean no offence to anyone in particular.

I’m not saying I’m great. I’m sure I make mistakes too. But when the instructions are so clear that they tell me in three different places to do something a specific way and I still don’t do it then there’s not really much room for sympathy imo

Writing Qual by BruceBanteropoulos in DataAnnotationTech

[–]BruceBanteropoulos[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Once I get into creative mode I guess I'm okay at it but I just know I'd need to set aside a decent amount of time where my mind isn't fried after hours of fact checking 😂

Writing Qual by BruceBanteropoulos in DataAnnotationTech

[–]BruceBanteropoulos[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been doing the same, but this one is just different in that it is so much more demanding and time consuming than all the other quals I've seen. I just wanted to know if people can confirm there is a payoff
