they sent out so many emails about the new system, how did you miss them?

[dzadza]

I don't know how many they sent - but I didn't get a single one!
I did get a popup message today, though...

This is the lousy change that upwork has made recently where you pay a dollar for every job you apply and lose your money while they gain even more than they used to.

So true.

What are we doing here?

IF this one was a reply to my previous post:

Might have been bit clumsy with my point.

For ME, answer it's not 'where do we go?', but 'to work without being obligated to hire someone to do our marketing; to work with an option where, while without a 'boss', there is no need worry about any technical stuff we (I) don't even know'.

For ME, we are here to use our skills. Not to be bothered with the rest of the stuff.

Again, if I was missunderstood, apologies; not easy to convey thoughts through forum.
Same as - I might have not understood yours in the way you intended.

You probably have to buy them now, so follow the link Virginia gave you. It is actually not as bad as you might think. 

However, it is a pity that Upwork didn't think to inform all its freelancers, members of the community or not, that this was going to happen.
