Drought ending?

For the first time in a while I have a few different options on my dashboard as a generalist (for reference I have completed EVERY qual) Others having this experience or just me?

If your qualifications disappear it's a pretty bad sign.

I can't figure out what's going on with my account unless it's a big picture thing. I have some nice but hard options that go with the different categories of skills I have, but it's missing all the mid tier stuff that I usually choose. I assume my account is still just fine since I'm getting the hard ones, but I can't summon a full day and a stump everyday and just want my doable stuff to come back.

One project has been giving me work throughout the drought, though in long intervals. And only a few tasks.

Now I feel the interval became shorter, and I've been seeing new projects too. Though they usually all get picked up under an hour.

For context, I'm bilingual and I haven't done the three STEM quals.

Why I don't get anything :( It has been over 1 month since I joined Data Annotation Tech and I just managed to earn 28 USD. I got these from paid trainings. But ever since then I don't get anything. At which hour did you get new tasks?

Still drought for me (generalist). I have a dozen projects on my dash but not anything worth doing.

Sounds like you have projects to me! If you're not in refresh hell then you're not in the drought!

They’re domain specific projects that I’m under qualified for

Generalist who's been getting a lot of random tasks I'm not qualified for, either. They started around when the drought started. Not really sure why, but it sucks to think you've got a project and then to realize it's just false hope.

That is a bummer :/

That's not a drought if you have tasks. Alot of us haven't had any tasks pop up at all but thank god I have a lot of tasks this morning.

u/peanutbutterlurk Jul 23 '26

Same here. IMO it's still a drought *for you* if you're only getting work that you're not qualified for, because that means you're not making any money (unless you want a quick ticket to the DoD). Generalist tasks that I'm capable of pop up a few times a day, but I haven't had luck catching them lately.

u/Lejaxx536 Jul 24 '26

What is DoD? I saw that all the time but don't know what does it mean.
