I'm doing better than last week but still not great, insert Chernobyl meme here, work is doing their shake people off during summer bullshit, so I've been getting like 8hrs a week. My other job online is light too, so it's looking like a serious hunt is in order, though finding a job is on par with winning the lotto in my experience. I need to keep hours open since I'm still dealing with dental bullshit, and any job I pick up isn't going to cover the prices they charge for that locally. I've been trying to flip stuff on ebay, taking surveys I find etc, so called 'beer money' is and always will be 'serious wage money' for me.

So, one experience on a survey 100% fitting for here was asking for low income empoc in my state to answer some questions regarding health and such for a 5 dollar gift certificate. I answer truthfully, some of the stuff asks for addresses and such nbd, the gift certificate they're supposed to send never gets sent out (based on the users who told me about it got sent out rather quickly on completion) what a waste of time I think.

The next day I see I have a message on my Linkedin from a researcher in the survey telling me in effect not to troll their survey and I should know better with my credentials. I think 'this is some 'too many minorities doesn't compute, therefore you don't exist redditism shit'. I was fuming, now I can't help but laugh at, they study this for a living yet can't connect how bad it gets, and it sure doesn't fuck you went to college. Yes research is effected by the conditions it finds itself in, but good luck getting libs to wrap their heads around that.
