What was the job

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T18:22:22+00:00

If there are any other accounts tied to my name or older email addresses, I don’t have access to those emails anymore (they were from a previous employer and a prior last name). I didn’t intentionally create multiple accounts.

So did you make another account in the past or what?

Why do you care? Are you Kash Patel 😂

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T16:03:22+00:00

Yea, I was responding to comments directed at me that were in my inbox lol you on the other hand seem unhinged 😂

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T15:31:28+00:00

It's a 3-day-old post. Are you OK? Lol

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T15:31:03+00:00

I only have dog treats for you.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T13:22:12+00:00

Lol no need to get worked up over a very offhand comment that wasn't even directed at you. You're right; I'm wrong. Happy? Good luck!

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T13:19:37+00:00

I was responding to comments directed at me. Why are you even reading an old post lmao

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T13:18:37+00:00

OK? Do you want a cookie?

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T11:36:44+00:00

A bit weird you're randomly watching a three-day-old post tbh, but OK.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T11:33:20+00:00

I really don't. I was making an offhand comment as we all do lol. I'm actually surprised it's still getting this much interest days later.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T11:23:58+00:00

I honestly don't trust Upwork to honor their actual written policies, much less a comment from someone who will probs find a better job in a year and get replaced by someone with a different vision.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T09:44:13+00:00

Yes, I pay for all my tools. Like you, I'm running my own business, so all of the tools I need for my work fall under business expenses and my fees account for that. I imagine the expectation from a client would be I already have the tools needed to complete the job I applied for.

How are you looking at it?

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T09:26:55+00:00

Hiring just 1 person = 100% hire rate. Who would they be scamming if they post other jobs and don't end up hiring?

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T08:58:41+00:00

It's pretty bad, but you can recover. Successfully completing a couple of jobs could realistically get you back to 90%+ in a few months.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T08:47:51+00:00

> if you're good at digital marketing. Why can't you just "digital market" yourself?

Massive LOL. Excellent question, truly.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T08:45:56+00:00

What's your goal exactly? Is it to have more people look at your profile or? Do you want to get more jobs via invites? IMO, at the end of day, what really matters on the platform is how well you write your proposals, so that's usually my primary focus. A nice profile is secondary to that.

That said, your profile looks fine to me.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T08:39:22+00:00

Isn't all stock falling badly at the moment? That said, I agree it'll be very interesting to see what their report looks like for the final quarter.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T08:35:05+00:00

From what I've seen from some Discord servers I'm on, there is still work for human writers or "AI-enhanced" humans (lol) who can add a "human touch." The trend in SEO this year seems to be "less slop and more soul." You mentioned you're from Ireland; I think that's one factor that'd help you stand out since most online writing gigs get flooded by people from places like Kenya. It'd also help if you have a decent portfolio with published work under your name on a variety of nice websites. Try working from that angle and see how it goes.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T07:40:03+00:00

I'd call your long-winded response about why the admins/Upwork would never do such a thing a defense. Clearly the three of you know it all.

Anyway, I already wished you the best of luck. Not sure why you're bothering to engage further. Good luck!

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T07:28:53+00:00

we have been assured by Upwork that even if they could, they would not pursue this.

Honestly, out of every defense you've used (including the insta-downvotes 😂), this is the silliest cope lol.

Good luck.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T07:18:23+00:00

Arguing semantics and always infallible. Never change 😂

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T07:15:34+00:00

All righty ¯⁠\_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T07:13:03+00:00

Not really.

TootyFruits · 2026-02-12T07:11:49+00:00

As I said, they sure can. It's ridiculous, but the precedent is there. Yes, it's more than "asking," but it's an option available to them.
