I was so excited that I had located the MSC that took over my favorite account in 2017. This shop is for a convenience store. A quick in and make a purchase, period. No pictures, no dealing with pumps. $6.00 and $2.00 reimbursement for purchase. You were given a 4 day span to complete the shops. Yes, this is one of those low paying, why do they do them, shops! But, I really enjoyed them because I could do a route with my pups in tow. Plus, I was just beginning to use the required purchase to stock up on sundry items; soap, paper towels, etc.
Okay, so on to the new MSC. I was so excited that I almost requested the shops before reading. Then something said, you better read the guidelines. The new MSC is requiring the exact same steps as the former MSC. Check for cleanliness and make a purchase. The new MSC is paying $5.00 TOTAL. The new MSC is requiring a purchase of your choice be made (with NO REIMBURSEMENT). In addition to the drastic fee reduction, you now must commit to one date to complete the shop.
I couldn't believe what I was reading so I contacted the contracting company (Not the scheduling company). They stand firm, in that, it is a $5.00 fee with no reimbursement.
It saddens me to no end, but my fav shop is now on my 10 foot pole list. Will anyone consider these for $5.00. They are just sitting on the boards in my area and I hope they remain there until the MSC gets a freaking clue. Beyond, below, minimum wage.
Shopping up and down the Colorado Rocky Mountain front range.
