Confusing Scheduler Emails

February 22, 2015 10:16PM
Scheduler: I have these locations for $$ per shop to be done from ## to ## "Let me know if you have any availability to shop"
Me: I can do x location on this date ##
Scheduler: You need to apply online for that.

And the point of saying "Let me know if you have any availability..." was what? By the time I got the reply and logged in, the shops were gone.

I prefer my shoppers getting a hold of me to schedule. 9 times out of 10, if the shopper makes the effort to get in touch with me, the shopper won't flake.

Arguing with fools is like playing chess with a pigeon...
...No matter how good you are, the pigeon will s@^t on the board and strut around like it won anyway.

Not scheduling for ANY company.

I think I've had the same issue. I mean why do they even bother to ask you to let them know your availability?!

I received a similar email regarding donut shops. I told the scheduler that I could no longer see them online and her response was, "yes you can."

Too funny!

Personally, I always make sure shoppers have many ways to get a hold of me- email, text, phone... even Skype!

Actually, prefer to just self-assign through the MSC's website. However, I thought by contacting the scheduler I was doing her a favor since she asked to be contacted. It's true. Nice guys really do finish last.
