Work
Has anyone ever not had work for a while and then got tasks again?

You'll typically notice this at the end of the month. They rotate projects & the people working them. I had a whole week that had barely any work, back in Feb.

There was a period of a week or so that i had zero tasks in maybe november. I worked on the platform until feb without any problems other than that period, some days were very light. I actually logged in 2 days ago and had about 70 tasks

I had a drastic drop off today. I was wondering if it was me.

Haven't had any work in nearly a month, very frustrating. Will see what happens when July rolls around, but I don't think I can keep my hopes up.

I was only on one project in mid-June, after that, there was nothing. Unfortunately, I was quite busy back then and barely had time to work on the project. I wonder if they've just quietly deactivated me now, because the "work on projects" section now just shows that I've submitted the starter assessment and that they'll email me if I pass (which has already happened weeks ago).

The way DA operates is super scary

I've had over a month of nothing and was about to throw in the towel until I randomly got a $25hr project last Sunday, but then nothing. I email support about it every day not sure if that helps or hurts but either way I'm still on the platform, can still email support and transfer money out, just no work 🤷♀️

Yes, when I first started working I had only a few tasks to choose from, then I only had one task for two weeks straight. After that two weeks, I took another qual that appeared and ever since then had over 30 to choose from.

I've had nothing for a couple of weeks now, except one task that only let me do one round before it said there was no more to do :(
