Im at a point where I work for a select few companies. Make my specific routes in 2 or 3 days time. Usually 12-15 shops that pay a premium price. Adhere to that schedule every month. Then there are extra gravy jobs that pop up, for considerable amounts that are too good to pass up.
I have shops.falling out of my pockets. I turn away as.many.as I schedule. Seem to be all alone in this territory. Competition is nil.
Keep a spreadsheet updated after every shop.
I dont think I have ever.entered a shop on any device other than my smartphone. Always complete shop onsite. Never bring anything home but receipts. If Im doing a grouping of food shops, will always give the food to the homeless. Doesnt hurt a bit. I had accumulated.a bag of about 40 full size candy bars, and not wanting to go on insulin. Dropped them off at our homeless shelter to be divided up
Pay my Quarterly tax payments but with my deductions should get all of that back. I also.have extra.money withheld from my regular 2day a week job.
My MSCs are happy to have me because.I will pickup.shops that they are desperate to have completed when deadlines are looming.
