Well, at least Notepad has free downloads. Unfortunately, Word does not.

I never got an email about this. Are they only sending emails out to those who have done a shop in 2020? I have not done one yet this year.

Just read this entire thread...other than enforcing the 30 minutes rule and now an 8 hour rule for submission what are the other new rules. People keep mentioning them and say they are a pita but what are they? I already always label my photos..so what is the rule we have to use? how else are things changing for this year. I have not accepted any shops yet but will see if there are any nearby tomorrow. I have no idea how those of you who do lots of these shops in a day can keep track of which box photo is which if you do not label. I generally take camera pics which are easy to load into my computer and name then and there.

I enter my shops right after I leave the post office so no need to label photos for later. The picture of the box and the receipt and I am good to go.

I'm guessing a lot of the regulars are passing on these additional requirements for the same amount of pay. In the past, these have flown off the board, but apparently not this month - excepting, as (bad) luck would have it, those closest to me.

In addition to everything else mentioned, you have to submit photos of the flag or entrance if they are dirty or in bad condition (or if the flag is missing).

Late question as I am doing my first shop of 2020 tomorrow...the label requirement...what do they mean by Task name? I assume it is Regular or Hazmat but I am not sure. Also these do not identify by the indiv shop as all my shops will be the same date and the same city and the same Regular box. Are we allowed to add more up to 30? characters. Actually just the required items are 28 characters without the word box for regular box.
Exactly. They needed to provide an EXAMPLE.@wwin wrote:
I wouldn't worry to much about it. There appear to be a gazillion different ways people are interpreting the instructions and no one has reported a shop being returned for photo format corrections. The two usual photos for a shop for today were USPS_LA_200128_jpg2...
