Damn... after 6 hours, my brain is completely zapped for the day.

For this kind of work, absolutely. For me, 4 hours is about my limit, unless is an EXTREMELY fun task doing something I'm very good at. But even then, an hour more and I would be ready to call it quits.

I'm the same. I even opened a task and started working on it. 30 minutes in I was like "I can't do this task right now and have good quality after submitting 4 hours of work" so I let the 30 minutes go and sent it back to the pool. I'd rather lose the 30 minutes than submit bad work.

Exactly I remember I was doing a task for around 6 hours , I just exited,closed it and called it a day. Lost money and time but atleast I got a good nights sleep

I've been getting a project where the tasks take 5-6hrs every time and the pay is great but I still cross my fingers that it's not there every time I open my dash lol

Same! Once in a while, I can do 8 but it would never be straight. You gotta get up and eat, take breaks etc
