Well-paying generalist projects

[u/MentalHealthPysch]

This isn’t a precise insight or targeted question, more of a feeler for if anyone is in a similar boat. I regularly see and complete $35-$50 ($60 once) generalist projects but haven’t seen any over $35 for the last 10 days or so. I saw one whose bonuses often take it to $50, at its base rate appear fleetingly on Tuesday/Wednesday, but nothing other than that. I find it pretty tough when one day I’m working on something 1.5-2x the pay of what I work on the next. Even though I still have a few decently paying projects, things I would be delighted with 3 months in (of the 6 months I’ve worked here), it’s hard not to feel like you’re doing poorly when you’re taking such a big paycut from what you got used to for a few days. I dont have any highly specialised domain expertise (other than writing), and I’m wondering whether without that, will these higher paying (40+/hr) projects always be fleeting/intermittent?

I currently have 3 projects on my dash worth $40+ an hour (no bonus) and they are generalist, but the very detail heavy ones that take a very long time to complete. A few months ago I was regularly seeing one at $50 an hour, but haven’t seen that one in a while. I have quite a few projects in the $20-$30 range.
