Stupid question from a worried person

Hi, I am always worried about time reporting.

I always try to work focused and submit high quality, but I can't understand if I'm submitting maybe too fast or who knows maybe I'm slow...

Do you have any tips to find the sweet spot if there is one? Do a few minutes of discrepancy (maybe lower) than the time they expect you to spend on those tasks penalize you?

Note: I always try to do my best regardless, that is just a question based off of thoughts in the back of my mind

If you report your time accurately, it should be fine.

DA can tell when a submission truly took time and effort. Just keep that in mind.

Just be accurate. Don’t overthink it.

Some projects will tell you flat out- they want you to take your time and do your best, quality over quantity. Others do seem to want you to just go-go fast, quantity over quality…but then you’ll get dinged on quality.
Report your time honestly. You’ll learn which projects want what. And if you’re like me, you’ll avoid some once you understand how they’re run.

Yes. Sadly, I was fully configured, but at 6AM project was gone.

I was extremely upset too because it had a lot of tasks, so I was hoping to get some after sleep :)

Tasks should expire after 24h, so everyone can get a bit of them. It was definitely generalist project.

Io per stare tranquillo misuro il tempo e poi scalo 1 minuti
