I am thinking of taking one of these. You need to pass a test, order from the drive thru and order inside, then give the manger an LOA to take 7 photos. Fee is $12 and reimbursement up to $10.
Has anyone done any of these? Feedback please.

I have done one. I waited 20 - 30 minutes to talk to the manager and give my LOA. He then wanted to call the district office. While waiting I took my photos. Another 20 minutes before he came back. There was a lot of glare on the inside menu board and it was difficult to get a good readable shot. I was asked to submit better photos but I gave what I had. Wasn't going back since I had already invested so much time. Didn't hear back but got paid anyway. Won't do again.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just forget to load the film.

I tried one and didn't really care for it. I had a uniquely shaped one, that it was hard to get real good photos. I also experienced an issue with glare on the window shots. They accepted what I gave them though and I got paid. I don't wish to do another.

I did two. I didn't have any problems at either. However I received a 10 on the first one and a 7 on the second one with no comments as to why. Not going to sweat it though,......

I have done one of these. I thought it was easy and quick. You get a lot of food, so good for leftovers. I wish I could get the other locations in town.

I did 2 of these. One manager called her district manager who was unaware of program and I was refused. Had issues with glare on my first one also but took lots of shots and just emailed all photos I had extras to my scheduler. got 9 and 8 no reason why but will be paid.

Shopping Western NY, Northeast and Central PA, and parts of Ohio and West Virginia. Have car will travel anywhere if the monies right.

If I can throw my 2 cents in there: You think the managers at these locations would have been informed of this program. Not only are they not informed, some of their DM's are not informed. It reeks of unprofessionalism to me.

We as shoppers are told to "be prepared" and so should they. Even if this was mystery/undercover or revealed, they should have been notified what would occur in their future..

typical case of why this restaurant is doing so badly lack of communication from corporate to their franchisees

I've done 2, but only because it was a mall location(i've done this location twice, and the first time was $15 because it required a few more photos), and I knew i'd only have to do half of the requirement. If the fee was bumped to $25 I would've done a few more, but for the $12 they're offering, no thanks.
