And I'm about to quit this stupid dance.
Every month I offer to work her shops into planned routes at a reasonable fee ($25). Every month she says she can't pay that much.
Today I get the urgent plea: Set Your Own Bonus!
(Which is meaningless, because she'll just reply that she can't pay that much, too! )
Why cannot a scheduler understand the difference between working a shop into a planned route, and being asked to drive 200 miles round trip on the deadline date for one shop?
Last month she ended up paying me $65 on the deadline date to complete a shop I had offered to do for $25 earlier in the month.
I'm just so fed up....and she ARGUES with me! Lady, I don't have time to text arguments with you when I'm on a route!
It really ends up badly for her and worse for me, as driving round trip 180 miles for one $65 shop does virtually nothing for my bottom line profitability.
What would you do? Delete her from texts and stuff? Just not respond? Try again to get through to her that it saves her company considerable dollars to give me $25 each during the month, and is much, much better for my profitability as well? Just stop doing the shops at all?
