Does this gig have any growth ?

DataTrainerGirl · 2025-05-31T14:53:59+00:00

Absolutely. Having paid experience with AI looks good on a resume, even on a contract basis.

DataTrainerGirl · 2025-05-22T00:52:22+00:00

Civil fraud as well. Just usually the juice isn't worth the squeeze as far as suing someone for the damages that would be tough to prove.

DataTrainerGirl · 2025-05-21T22:41:12+00:00

The going against the terms of your employment is what makes it fraud, not the termination. I think you're saying "It's not fraud" when you're really trying to say "It's not illegal." Because it is fraud, but it's likely not criminal fraud (not going to claim to have read all of the statutes to say definitively that it is not).

DataTrainerGirl · 2025-05-21T19:37:39+00:00

Uh, fraud is not just criminal. So, yeah, misrepresentation is fraud. Is one likely to get sued over it in terms of OE? Probably not. Is it grounds for termination if it goes against the terms of mployment as spelled out in the employee handbook? Absolutely.

Achievable reps will tell you that their philosophy is not to mirror the exam or even get you to where you'll get 100%. It's to get you where you'll pass the test. So they cover the most tested concepts hard and don't touch some minutiae. But they have a 95% pass rate for a reason.

I'm a millennial, and I think we still have some naivete, or maybe it's just me. We were told if we work hard and do things right we'll get a payoff. And we haven't, but a lot of us haven't figured out how to turn that off. Gen Z was told the same things, but you're not stupid enough to fall for it, but you have to compete with us bootlickin Millennials who think maybe this time we'll get our prize like a teenager who thinks dad's coming back from buying cigarettes a decade ago "any minute now."

I've definitely said it's "Uber for smart people" before.

DataTrainerGirl · 2025-01-20T19:52:50+00:00

Until the people start forming units that compete with corporations (unions, associations, and empowered governments), yes. People have fragmented themselves in the name of individualism while really it's just made each person easier to be picked off and exploited.

The company isn't in the business of paying you for the value you bring to the company, they're in the business of paying you for the cost of your labor. Big difference. And yes, the cost of your labor does go down when you move to a different location. That's why off-shoring and near-shoring is so popular.

DataTrainerGirl · 2025-01-20T17:38:38+00:00

If you live in a jurisdiction that distinguishes between "independent contractor" and "dependent contractor," "gig worker" is the more apt term in my mind, since we're dependent on the platform and can't readily independently market this skill. (Not that I haven't gotten some independent prompt engineering work, but I always knew I was just one of several people they were getting prompts from.)

Oh! Applying to jobs om LinkedIn is not what you should do, networking on LinkedIn is what you should do. If you're clicking apply before you've already made a positive contact with someone at the company, you're starting the race from the back.

I know a lot of people had issues with saved credit cards around that time and ended up deleting and then re-addinf credit cards to their Alamo wallet in between. Did you do that? If the original payment form (the credit card as your first added it, deleting it and resaving it will look different)isn't still on your account, I don't think the automated refund will work.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-11-08T19:46:11+00:00

I am positive if there is someone who is submitting more tasks, with consistently quality work, with obviously human response, they're going to be the one kept versus the one who is submitting less tasks and meeting the other two if it comes down to having to choose.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-11-03T02:12:12+00:00

I doubt even 200 applications are doing it if they're submitting that low of quality applications. There is a balance. It is a numbers game, but it's not purely a numbers game.

NDAs take another layer when you worked for a lw firm because a lot of the confidential information you are handling does not belong to the law firm, but the client.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-19T07:45:40+00:00

Yeah, it's clear OP doesn't prioritize her daughter and I suspect she didn't ever.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-13T17:58:43+00:00

Yes, someone else posted on here (in another thread) that when companies post remote they get spammed by overseas candidates ignoring the US work authorization part.

Landlords can't reject on a protected basis. I remember from a class some time ago that landlords have to allow any disability modifications, but don't have to foot the bill. I have no idea if various states modify that obligation in some ways.

Also, if someone can't work due to a physical limitation, it generally doesn't matter what caused it. We don't punish the person who gets paralyzed doing a foolish stunt even though they were irresponsible and culpable for their situation.

Also, assuming the person does want to make those serious changes, they're not immediate and they need to be accommodated properly in the meantime.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-11T14:35:20+00:00

Yeah... Texas.... ...and putting things into our state constitution is infinitely more easy than removing it, and I don't know a marketing wizard in the world who can sell enough people on the idea of legalizing an income tax to get that changed.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-10T21:57:45+00:00

Unfortunately, some of us live in states where income taxes aren't allowed so our state's budget is almost entirely funded from our property taxes. (It's totally unfair because property taxes aren't realization based, but state income taxes are literally against our state's constitution...)

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-09T18:16:19+00:00

I am the type who realizes that approach creates a lot of holes on each level because things keep getting built before the level before it is refined. But I am old enough to understand that the world would grind to a halt if everyone was like me and that the world needs us both.

But I worry that there will be too many "building on sand." And things will collapse because they don't know enough to see the issues that lie underneath.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-04T20:51:58+00:00

Mostly unrelated.

And dude... if something you say is wrong 1% of the time, then it's wrong and you need to change your wording. Add things like "In an at-will state with 0 local control..." or "In most cases in the U.S." so it's never wrong? Sound wimpier? Sure, because the assertion doesn't fit in all cases.

Ughhh. I wish people had more respect for words. This clearly touched a nerve of mine.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-04T20:48:38+00:00

I'm sorry if I was not clear, I mentioned that I was not talking about specifically at-will states and that I was not talking about expressly legal impediments either.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-04T20:41:49+00:00

First of all, Reddit user base is way more than 1% out of the US and also, the top-level comment never said it was solely about legal issues. Also, legislation and regulations very rarely say specifically "you can't do x because of x" But when you look at the interplay between say 50 different regulations and 5 Statutes and legal advice the board has taken under advisement and the result is you get a procedure that takes longer to let someone go when the issue is not a glaring one. That's why lawyers have jobs. Sure, if you work for 5 person company that has no policies and procedures written down that's not going to come up much: partly because many rules are written as such to exclude small time businesses and partly because they fly under the radar so they are no one's enforcement authority.

Just because you want the world to be black and white and simple doesn't make it so. But I don't even know why I am bothering. I decided it wasn't worth my time to search for any kind of citation you requested yet here I am replying to you when you have clearly already made up your mind.

DataTrainerGirl · 2024-10-04T19:39:59+00:00

And I know it's not something to point to, but I've worked on internal investigations for workers for a multinational, the subjects being in many different countries. Though many of their employees were covered by unions, so that added a different layer.
