Virtualbee work

[Booth]

I just logged in. How is the workflow today?

[Morgainne]

I check here on and off to see how others are doing or if anyone has an update. I have not been able to make payout in over a month. I've been stuck at around 22 for weeks. Since then I've switched over to turking. The last time I saw a decent amount of work it was a Friday night, well technically Saturday morning, and there was a ton of it. I did not bother though. I had been turking for over twenty hours trying to make up for some lost money. My income has increased through with the other site. More than VB was giving me at least. Last year it was busy up until mid summer for me. I guess work is really based on where you live. I apologize if this sounds negative. I have felt so bummed about VB for a while now. It was a lot of work and a lot of hours but for the most part it was fun for me.

I just logged in and once again there's nothing. I haven't had anything in days.

I thought there would be more work after the tax deadline. A lot of people wait until April 14th, before midnight to mail their returns.

This has been the worst year I have seen with this company. Not looking good for the future. When there is work, it's not anything a person wants to do because you usually can't read it!

I posted a few weeks ago that as of that point I had made half of what I made last year. I have a grand total of $1.07 racked up for this week. I'm just waiting for them to completely cut us off, either because the business has gone under or because they will be shipping all of the work elsewhere in the world. For me, a lot of work last year came from typing medical/insurance/death record things. There was a lot of that work and the snippets were pretty long and detailed. I suppose it's possible that certain projects will come their way at different times. What aggravated me for the past few weeks is the "stop/start" work. Typing two letters, then no work, then typing one date, then no work. It literally could take two hours to make 20 cents. Yesterday, all I got was unreadable snippets, today there is nothing. It's a real shame.

Yeah, it's definitely not as busy now as it was in March, but I just made payout yesterday. Today, it seemed slow, but I did manage to make $2.00 within a couple of hours even though there were a lot of bad snippets and a few times within those hours there was nothing for a little while. I frequently "refresh" the page when I'm doing this job. Sometimes when there appears to be no work and I "refresh" the page, some work appears. I do agree with you that there isn't much work now that tax season is winding down. I just look at this "work at home" job as a way to make "extra cash". It's definitely not a job that you can depend on for fulltime income. It would be nice if everyone knew when there is going to be work available but each person has to check in frequently with Virtual Bee when they are available to work during the day and or evenings. I didn't log in till the afternoon today so I don't know if there was work during the morning hours. Good luck to all Virtual Bee Keyers!

Is there work during the evening? How late have you seen work and give your time zone, please.

[diamond100]

I am from the Midwest. (Central Time Zone) On Thursday afternoon I logged on in the afternoon about 2 o'clock and there was work but not a steady flow, but I did manage to make $2.00 within two hours. Some of the snippets were bad, sometimes no snippets but also there were a lot of good ones but I was only on the system for 2 hours. Today I checked in the afternoon and there is nothing. So it really varies from day to day when there is work. You just have to check frequently when you are available to work on the site. I hope this helps you. Have a great weekend!!

I'm in the eastern time zone. At times, there could be nothing all day and bam, it's 11pm and then the work comes in heavy. When it was busy a lot of times nothing would hit all day until midnight and then I'd be typing well until 7am.
