Castforce CVS Reset

This is NOT really worth of time compare to Castforce. I used to get $11/job even if I worked 20 minutes. I finished my first job and I am only paid for 20 minutes which is just $3.50. So basically, they decreased pay rate from $11/store to $4-5 /per store. You don't get mileage or any other reimbursement unless you drive more than 30 miles. So basically, Cast came up with this new idea to pay LESS for each job/store. You can not spend more than hour if 1 hour is allocated if you have an approval.

I have done them but have found that each store follows its own plan-o-gram and I am supposed to go in and correct that. I have not done any in a long time and at age 70 am far too old for the up down floor reach over my head business. they also take longer then the stated time. And then we had an issue on non-payment.. I do not work for Cast anymore,
Really but my last pay stub is for $3.50 for 20 minutes I spent in the store. They did not include anything for driving time (20 minutes) and mileage. In the nutshell, it is really not worth of a time. As I said, they are saving MORE money and we are making LESS. I used to get $11 for 20 minutes of my time in the store and I was ok. I can't do this anymore. I can't work for cheap.​ These guys are behaving like a king and not answering any questions and folks still don't know how it will work. If you are happy to make $3.50 for each without getting paid for mileage and drive time then this job is for you.
I used to think it was okay to pick up little jobs if you were already going to be in the store for something else, but now they have things so time-sensitive, you can't stack anymore. Even within the same company, I've been frustrated by having to make two trips to a store for different clients on different days. It's not worth it when they aren't paying your travel.

Last year I wrote off close to 15,000 miles and didn't have to pay taxes. Not to mention the $2,500.00 deductible for office equipment and then 48 square feet of office space, part of the utilities separate Internet and phone. Insurance, tag and tax for the auto. Some of those little jobs pay off in the end but YMMV.
I am not an independent contractor.

You can still write off your mileage, even if you are not an independent contractor! smiling smiley
I was told it had to be more than your standard deduction and that it would be hard to hit that. I know even with our pile of medical expenses, we can no longer write that off. Kept a year's worth of meticulous receipts for nothing.

My poor baby "Blue Bird" is 7 months old and has 28,000 miles. I apply for a job everywhere I go.
How can I apply to do the gift card resets? I would love to get into these kind of merchandising tasks!
The three phone numbers I have are 1-877-550-9799 and 1-941-343-5146 and 1-941-444-5366. They have to send you a link to apply, and they will, trust me! Good luck with that! If you're excited about gift card resets they are going to LOVE you!

eta: Ask for a recruiter.
