"Some of the things I’ve tried to do don’t get well received while others that are kind of stupid get praise and awards."

Yeah, there's little correlation between effort and payout, I figured that out in the first few weeks. But that's not at all what I'm talking about in this post.

"And getting paid 100$ per hour is a little obscene."

No, most professionals make that much or more. But I'm not looking to make that much. Like I said, I'd be happy to break even, but I'm PAYING to work here. That's my point.
