| This happens more often than not and happens more often in surveys. I just sat through a 1 hour survey (which the screener said was going to be a 20 minute survey) and at the end after watching the content, responding with the bar that you move up and down for how much you like it, answering all their questions (including lots of lengthy text based responses) AND their questions to prove you were actually paying attention...I got screened out at the end (where I was given the opportunity to evaluate the survey) and I selected (which was an option) that the survey was too long and gave it a rating of 1. Surveys should not be allowed to screen you out when they have wasted so much of your valuable time. One other survey I did a long time ago asked me to sign a petition at the end in order to complain about an issue, and because I refused, I was screened out (after spending 30-40 minutes on the survey). Then there are the usual surveys that ask you to answer a million question on scales of strongly dislike to like and if you are not giving them the answers they are looking for (as some surveys are more interested in getting data they want instead of a true representation of what the populous thinks) you are screened out about half way through or right at the end because you are NOT who they are looking for based on your answers. Again, highly unfair and many times you don't get ANY compensation just time wasted. It is sad that this is how society treats people too (ie whistleblowers and anyone else giving honest opinions) and this attitude is just meanly reflected in surveys when they say they want your honesty but burn you for giving it. Please share your experiences where you have been burned for your honesty. | ||
