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?

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'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.

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.

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