Self-assign vs scheduler-assigned shops

I often get e-mails offering a bonus for shops due within a few days. Yesterday morning I got one that took me to a site to apply for the job. I applied, but as of this morning the job has not been assigned. It is due tomorrow. In the meantime, I found several self-assign shops that I am about to do. I can't afford to sit around waiting to be assigned a job. Luckily I was able to delete my application, but I still don't understand why a company can afford to pay a scheduler who doesn't assign the job promptly. This is a company I have worked for quite a few times, and all have been positively reviewed, so I don't think they are waiting around for a better shopper!

The shops were probably already assigned to another shopper. Many of the outside scheduling companies are infamous for keeping pending applications in case the original shopper cancels or flakes on the job. It happens all the time. If you don't like it, do what you did and delete your application.
