I'm not sure if this will translate well online and it is somewhat off-topic from the restaurant question. It is good to be cautious but you can't go through life scared the whole time. I have been performing a large gas station route for the month of January. Less than two weeks ago, I arrived at one of my locations and the entire gas station including parking lot and the store were surrounded by yellow crime scene tape. There were flashing police cars everywhere. A 20-something man was shot and killed while sitting in his car less than an hour before I arrived at this gas station. And no, he wasn't robbing the store or doing a drug deal in the parking lot. His wallet was still on him so it was not a robbery. For whatever reason, he was just sitting in his car. I am guessing that it was a gang initiation but the police aren't saying. How many of us have sat in our cars to write notes, check e-mails, or text messages prior to driving? It did shake me up for awhile and I even considered dropping the route but I made a commitment and I am following through with it.

I could be wrong but I don't think the MSCs and especially the schedulers have much, if anything, to do with making up the shop guidelines. It is the client who puts these restrictions on a shop. Maybe someone from the MSC actually writes the guidelines but according to what the client tells them. There is probably a reason why they want two diners. As for lunch, I have seen and performed many lunch shops that only require one diner.
