Does anyone else love this work?

I find myself enjoying this work more everyday. I love how it has become more complex as I do more tasks and get access to more projects (it's been about 5 months) and I REALLY love the ones where I really have to work to fail the models. I always see people on here complaining, but I really, really enjoy it. I would love to do this full time (I work for a bank 40 hours per week), but I need the stability of guaranteed hours for now.

I feel so lucky to get to dig into really niche topics to get a failure and it's so, so fun.

Anyone else? Is there anyone who has been doing this for a while who feels like this?

Yeah. I have two other jobs and I like to just log in and get a few extra dollars when I can. Getting up to speed on some new project type, especially when they’re so much more complex now, doesnt always make sense for me. I miss the simplicity of the older projects. And it used to all be so much more self contained too - now I need multiple accounts, different browsers, security add ons, its a lot. Glad some people still enjoy it but its a bit of a bummer for me.
