    Anybody got a bonus email this week?

    The last couple of weeks have been unbelievable - nearly 60 hours altogether! :j

    Can I ask, just out of interest, when you do your work, is it mainly during the day ? I have another full time job so I do this work in the evenings and weekends and even over these last 2 'bonus' weeks due to NRT I havent been able to do more than around 12 hours a week :(

    Yes I just got an email saying I got the bonus! I'm really pleased as I didn't think I'd done enough to qualify :)
    That's great Cass - i meant an email offering another bonus for this week, but I just got my confirmation email aswell. :beer:

    I do most of my work weekends and evenings too, as I've got a full-time job aswell.
    But in the last two weeks I've taken a couple of days leave each week to make the most of the bonus.
    The first week I had as much work as I wanted, but last weekend was quiet and on Monday I had nothing, but it's picked up since and Tuesday was my best day ever, getting nearly 10 hours, and it's just been about constant ever since.

    Are you taking all the jobs offered or just type 7?

    I work full time too and due to NRT often struggle and only get around 8 hours in, but when the first bonus week ran I managed to get in 12 hours!

    Yeah, I do every task type. The first bonus week wasnt as bad, but this last week only managed about 2.5 hours sat & 1 hour sun morning before it ran out and nothing monday, although seemed to be back to having some work since then. Managed to do enough each week to get the top bonus level but not as much as I would have liked and no way could I have got near the 60 hours youve managed. Just frustrating when you set time aside to do work and then get NRT, particularly when bonuses on offer :). You're lucky you got loads of work when you'd taken time off specifically; the last time I tried doing that I got NRT and wasted a day off work :(

    Yes, I only had the email for the first week. I'm not expecting one for the second one though, as I had NRT for 2 days :(
  • Although the bonus is a nice idea, I am not forcefully busting myself for it as I never know when I am going to go NRT and it all be a waste of time.
    That being said I have had a steady stream of work this week although some of the work content has been..... errrr..... unusual.

    Can anyone tell me how much Lionbridge pays please? Also what sort of jobs are you doing? Is it the internet assessors program or one or more of the other jobs they have advertised? I can't see anything on the website about the rate of pay and I'm not sure if it's worth going for it or not.
    Don't mess with pensioners. :cool:

    No one will be able to answer any of your questions unfortunately, this is because of an agreement we all have to sign :(.
    I can answer however and say that I am an internet assessor.
  • Anyone else go to the webinar this evening then get an email saying they missed it? :huh:
