Wow! 200 orders in 2 hours is required for a spring contract?! Guess that's a no go for me in the spring.

Has anyone gotten any work today? magazine orders? I have been logged on since about 8:30 this morning and nothing so far.

[shenanigan]

I have been working magazine orders pretty steadily since about 2:30. But I have a bunch of errands to run before I have to go do a party tonight, so I had to stop for today.

100 orders per hour? I am averaging about 65 right now, and it's my first day working...I could MAYBE work my way to that point eventually, but probably still wouldn't get enough work in to get it. I'll just bust my butt to do all I can before this contract runs out.

Can you either tell us what the minimum was, or PM it to me? I would love to know!

[Stephanie2377]

oh, wait... I think I just figured it out. They expect 100 orders per hour on average? Gotcha.

But who wrote that you have to do 100 per hour to be considered for next Spring? All I saw were people writing how much they have done so far for the day.

[sarahlorrain]

So now you have to have a certain hourly amount to be considered for the Spring contract? Last year you had to do a certain amount of orders during the fall season. I guess they changed it? I can't imagine doing 100 an hour. I do just under 50 an hour.

I would be interested to have shenanigan post a follow-up to her email. I was under the impression that the "200 per 2 hr" post was in response to someone saying how many they had keyed. I may be wrong.

I had heard it was a certain amount of entries in the fall, too. I wouldn't make much sense to keep someone on that keyed fast, but only keyed a few hours per week. Maybe I'm wrong.

Wow, I thought I was a fast at input too, until this job! 200 per hour - I don't know how. I am averaging 50-55 right now with many, many interruptions during the day. I am only on for 15 minutes at a time. I am hoping that it will pick up for the weekends/evenings as well. I am anxious to see what my per hour will be with a consistent couple of hours going with no interruptions. I will let you all know if I get anywhere near 100 per hour! I am toast for the Spring contract if it is 200/hour. The only thing I am having issue with is that I keep making "beginner" errors regarding what to bypass, etc. Hopefully with some consistency it will become more fluent. Good luck to everyone!

I mean, 200 in 2 hours. Didn't mean to confuse the conversation even more!
