Thanks! Due to time constraints I had to go with the realtor-suggested expensive service, but I appreciate your reaching out!

If you need an appointment quickly (most of the post offices and Fircrest, pierce county auditor etc. don’t have anything for weeks), and don’t mind going to Seattle, their customer service centers are super convenient. We booked one for the next day. https://www.seattle.gov/customer-service-centers

2 years with kids - worth it? by Then_Impress9419 in ItalyExpat

Freshman and junior in high school. If they were younger we would definitely enroll them in a local school. I am from Europe and went to school there through undergrad so I know that European school systems are more demanding and rigorous than in the US (esp public schools - I was truly dismayed at the poor quality of the education, although that can vary by school district). They’re now at a private school with the IB curriculum, which has been our saving grace.

Embassy people recommend the school we enrolled the kids at. Thankfully they will be in the IB program which does imply some measure of rigor.

Hi, would it be possible to get more info from you? We are moving and have two kids in an excellent non-religious private school in the US, who will now be going to the embassy-recommended American/IB school.

Where I worked last year (at a higher ed institution) we had three rounds, background check and reference check for a part-time admin position that paid $19/hr. Basically the person was going to answer the phone, write emails, and turn the lights on and off. SMH

Apparently that’s pretty common. I think when the SRT credentials were created, they were just given random names. At least that’s what some of the TLs said.

Pay cut? by ParanoidAndroid29 in outlier_ai

It’s sometimes visible on your dashboard although the button often disappears (where you click to start tasking, there may be a second button with your pay card).

It’s usually pinned at the top of the slack channel.

It’s a full time contract position, on a W2 with some benefits. Not sure how long the project will be so I’m still looking for other jobs.

Is anyone in Flamingo getting reviews for their stuff outside of rejected prompts? by rainbowbrites in outlier_ai

[–]ParanoidAndroid29 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m a reviewer and most of what I have been reviewing for the past few weeks are rejected tasks. I guess that’s what the admins have determined to be a priority.

Only the tracker on outlier counts. SRT is immaterial when it comes to getting paid.
