One of the things I see, or at least it's my impression, is that folks think that the "end date" on the job postings is the last possible date to do them, and that the shops are going to disappear after that date. That just is NOT the case.
Go on any Sassie platform, it shows a start date and an end date. And it's usually a span of about 5 - 10 days, depending on the shop and the MSC. Those dates are the dates that they want them done AT THAT PRICE. If you wait until after that date, the shops don't disappear forever, they get extended, and bonused. Sometimes, especially lately, they extend them for an additional 5 - 10 days without a bonus, but it still doesn't mean that you're going to miss out on doing those jobs. They will be extended again, and bonused, and each time the bonus goes up the time frame gets shorter, at least for most of the MSCs.
This continues until all of the shops are taken, or to the end of the round which is usually either quarterly or monthly, again depending on the MSC and the client. The few that are remaining at the end of the round will be highly bonused one or two days after the last day, or they will be absorbed, back at base pay, into the next round.
remember, you are NOT employees. It is NOT your responsibility to get all of their work done for them in a timely manner. You are working for you, maximize your profits, not your effort. Only claim the jobs you intend to do, even if they are ishopfirst. The MSCs got wise to hoarding shops until the first extension to wait for a bonus, that doesn't work anymore, there are no more automatic $5 bonuses just because you let it go back on the board at the first extension.
