A quick note: If I answered a question and you have further questions for me, please include a URL link to your original question(s) so that I can be sure of what we're talking about. Questions that reference something we talked about a week ago that I can't quite remember are kinda hard to answer.
Welcome to my column.
I don't apologize for my answers. I speak to the audience, and in doing so I sometimes tell the audience things they don't want to hear or cant handle.
I believe in stands on principle. I believe that doing right for the sake of doing right is a good way to live. I believe in self awareness and encourage it in others. I offer the most unbiased viewpoint I have. And yes, I am only human.
Im going to tell you what I think you need to hear. You are not supposed to take what I say and follow it. You are supposed to take what I say and _think_about_it_
Oh, and feel free to ask me questions, but netspeak, ebonics, terrible grammar, and your teen angst about a crush will be ignored.

Hi,
I know we are not supposed to use the messaging in this way, but I did not see a forum link on your page. I just wanted to let you know that the a good deal of the info you researched on the rating program was wrong.
Its a shame, because it is exactly what the other person is after and considering that you read my reply (and hence knew that I was working with them), you could have asked me first.
I have been with them since 2008. There is no regular retraining aside from the odd quiz or update to the guidelines. Whoever said you spend more hours not getting paid, never made it past the first week or two (thats when you learn the rules and things take time). It takes a few extra minutes to perform tasks that are not paid, and this is taken into account by offering competitive hourly wages.
All things included, it is the best paid part time job available that I am aware of.
I have no stake in this at all, but the info you presented was not correct. I am telling you this since I assume your goal is to present accurate advice.

The reports I read were from people who said they'd been there for several months, a few said they'd tried it almost a year.
I don't know myself, which is why I answered that question saying I'd googled them. If it's working for you, that's great, you found the one work from home that isn't a scam or other way to screw you over. None of the reports I read gave positive reviews of working there, so I didn't get the positive perspective, or see that there was one outside of your experience.
That said, experiences can vary widely and even if you've had good experiences I'm not going to assume you're personally representative of what working with them is like. I don't know you any more than I know the people who posted their reports for me to google, so far as I know you're all correct and factual in your experiences, and if everything I've read so far is fact about the company the bad experiences outweigh your one good one.
Nothing personal, but my answer was factual at least in that these negative reports do exist and the person asking the question would be wise to listen to more experiences than just the one person who it's worked out for.

I am sure you meant well, but I do not agree with any of this.
1. You may not know me, but you had access to talk to me. The difference between this site and say yahoo answers is that we are more of a community. I have been on here for many years as have you. Instead, you write a critique of my reply (since really, thats all it was) based on random second hand info off the net.
2. The one thing about the internet is that the complainers are normally heard. More than that, they often misrepresent the situation. The reason I responded was that the info you had was wrong, beyond the point of it being an opinion - it was just plain wrong. There is no "retraining", and there is very little to do that one is not paid for.
Its not a question of it having worked out for me. I am not talking about personal likes and dislikes (I know several raters - most like it, one does not, but not for the reasons you listed). The system works a certain way and it is almost 100% automated - same rules for everyone, everywhere. Same department handling all raters, common email notifications, etc. It works exactly the same on my end as it works in the US or anywhere else. So when you are on the inside, you know the system, its the same for all.
Experiences in this case cannot really vary all that much when it comes to how things work. I could have explained all this, and a heck of a lot more, if you had asked (good or bad). Could have helped to split fact from opinion, and maybe also a few blatant lies - like the notion that you get paid for one hour in three.
Like I said, its a shame because this is what the user needed, and the situation now is grossly misrepresented.
