Just out of curiosity, I took the test (easy; less than 5 minutes invested). But not one of these shops is showing on my job board, even though the e-mail gave about 20 locations within driving distance.

Quite right. I immediately got a window that said I wasn't qualified. Too bad they can't tell you that BEFORE you print out everything and take the da..... test! If I wasn't snowed in, or had anything better to do, I'd be ticked off! Good luck, intelli-shop, finding oodles of shoppers all earning in excess of $70,000! Why not just send the e-mail to shoppers who qualify? Egad. Not that I would touch one at $20.

Our household income is more than twice that and I'd consider them.
I'm retired and MS is fun money for me. I've made a few extra payment on a couple of credit cards and I enjoy getting out and interacting with other people. If I spend 2 hours on a shop and get $20, then that's $20 more than sitting at home wasting time on FaceBook or buying crap I don't need on EBay. There are plenty near me and I could get an easy $200 over a few days.

Did you say snowed in? Good Lord, I'm in the midwest and it was 62 where I was today.
Didn't the OP say that there is no narrative and about 45 photos required? Why would uploading photos with no real report take a couple of hours? Are you using dial-up or something? I shoot and upload hundreds of photos several times a week. It takes me about 10-15 minutes because they are very large files.@breestjon wrote:
I cannot believe the income requirement or the $20 payment. Uploading the photos, and filling in the report would probably take a couple hours, you would be lucky to make $4-5 an hour.

Yet I disagree with you. You need to read my post more carefully. I was not addressing the OP. I was addressing another poster quoted) who made a comment about the photos taking a couple of hours to upload even though apparently there is no written report with this shop. I was NOT talking about performing the shop. I am not sure what you living on the road for five years has anything to do with my post of photos taking minutes, not hours to upload.@scanman1 wrote:
I know your very opinionated, yet I disagree with you on this one.
I used to live on the road for five years nonstop and flew home one weekend a month. I have spent two weeks at a time living at a Comfort Inn in my past job on full expense report when that was the best available property in the area and I could stay at Residence Inn or better if it existed, but I worked out in the country areas at times.

I envy anyone who can upload "hundreds" of photos a week, LOOK at them, choose the best ONE of multiple shots for EACH answer, and somehow get them to upload to the report without staring at that darned little icon while it spins round and round....my PC is less than 2 years old, I use a digital camera, take 3 photos of every required item, and look at each photo carefully before I use it in the report. And I have hi-speed internet.
