What Tasks Should I Avoid?

Only accept tasks that you can safely and successfully complete. Do not accept a task if:

You don't understand the scope of work.
You don't have the necessary skills or experience.
You don't have the required tools or equipment.
You cannot arrive promptly.
The task appears unsafe or illegal.
The Requester asks you to perform work that differs significantly from the original task posting.

When in doubt, it's better to decline a task than accept one you're unable to complete.
