odesk is awful and should be put to rest peacefully.

at least for people hiring (i know first hand), and i read in this thread that also people being hired get ripped off.

the team at odesk are basically sitting behind their desks but more so behind their legal agreements, collecting their clean share without doing any work, without applying common sense or due process.

do not use odesk. leave it for good! odesk deserves to die peacefully.
