You are posting in a PUBLIC forum and asking for opinions. Just because you do not like some of the responses does not mean that you have the right to tell someone not to post. You have the right to whine about the same thing over multiple threads and I have the right to respond. I am sure you canceling shops for next week will make another shopper very thankful for the holiday season.

Blueberry pie with Haagendas vanilla. Almost forgot. And cranberry sauce, not usually served during the year. And yes leftovers for days. Love to take a cold turkey leg out of the fridge and eat it with buttered rye bread. It is a bit melancholy however. I can still picture my family, most of whom are departed, sitting around my Thanksgiving table and Thanksgiving tables of the past. Reflective.

You are being totally unrealistic. Everyone should cancel all work for an entire week revolving around a one-day holiday that focuses on eating like pigs and watching football? Not everyone celebrates Thanksgiving. I am sure it is not a favorite holiday of the Native Americans.@pammie8223 wrote:
I agree, I also think that they should not auto assign on the week of Thanksgiving, is it just me or is that kind of unusual planning?
Many shoppers love working around a major holiday. We get to pick up all the highly bonused shops that others flake on with the impending end-of-the month soon to follow.
As far as Maritz auto-assigning, YOU agreed to it at the end of your report from the previous rotation. If you did not want to work the entire Thanksgiving week, you should not have agreed to the auto-assign and break your contract with them. They did not randomly pick you out of thin air and assign shops to you. Time for a reality check.
Sorry Missy didn't ask for your opinion, I'm speaking about me. Dang do you always have to have something to say.

I'm elderly and get sick without notice and can't get my shops in on time. 85% my shops are extended due to my health and they never cancel my shops. The reason I think their so understanding is because I receive all 9-10's. If you received a citation, it'd show on your shop log.
The reason you get a shop without a sufficeint amount of time to complete is because they're desperate so you are in the driver's seat.

I applied for a shop over a week ago. Never heard anything. I am an Advocate for the Court for Domestic Violence Victims. I was asked to go to court with a Woman that needed our help. I checked my E-mail as soon as I could that day, (yesterday) and I saw that I was accepted for that assignment. Yep, It was do that same day. (yesterday). Oh and it had to be done at a certain time. I would not be out of court and done with the paper work until late. So I could not do the shop. I emailed the scheduler back and told her that if I would have known days sooner I could have done the job. I pretty much told her that it was really stupid to assign a job at 10:07 am that is do that same day, and had to be shopped between 10 am and 3 pm. I am just angry. Oh and I most likely got a flake citation. Not my fault. I do have another life besides shopping. They expect us to complete jobs by their deadline, so why cant they assign jobs in a timely manner to meet our deadlines? Sorry, this case I heard the other day in court, brought back memories and the email just was icing on the cake. OK done venting.
