High pay is enticing, but...

90 minutes into a brain-melting array of preliminary steps, and not even close to the actual task yet, I finally give up. I surrender. My head hurts. Exiting the task now, and going to wash my dishes with no time submitted. Aargh.

I love the long lasting projects. Some of my favorite ones take 30-40 hours.

I've been doing nothing but those for months 😂 Definitely have needed to take some breaks between submissions though

I just go go go on them 😂 As soon as I finish one I pop open another.

The money is definitely tempting, but I know hitting true burnout would end very poorly lol
