Love's Travel Stops & Country Stores

I have. Pretty simple, but people may be walking around in the restroom.
And evaluate the drive through, and the truck fueling area, the dog park, EV station, all other points on the perimeter. They are not hard, per se, but they do take a little while to complete.
Is the pay worth it with all the pictures and stuff we have to do?
It all depends. If you are passing by it anyways, have time to kill, and are hungry for the type of food served at the QSR, then maybe. These tend to sit on the board longer because they are really two shops in one.
I may be passing by one on the next few days and I wanted to see the pros and cons
I know most of them have either a McDonalds or Subway..
Thanks again

What will be the best way to take the pictures of the fountain area and stuff inside the store?
My son likes to do those.. I get a big mac or a filet o fish when he does. And I do the other truck stop shops, sometimes even at the same time, with separate receipts. I usually buy iced coffee in my own reuseable cup with or without a donut if they are available.
I think after you do one or two of them, they will become very simple. I've done hundreds of them in different areas. I just constantly take pictures as I drive up to the store and as I walk through the store. I don't do it unless it's bonused though.
Shopping Arkansas, Louisiana, & Mississippi.
I completed a single Love's in 2022 for $60 on New Yrs. Eve. None of the several areas Mystery mentioned were a required visit, BUT, this could easily have been a different MSC and/or the shop details could have changed. I watched the company's board, but all subsequent jobs I noticed reverted to a work:pay ration unattractive to me.
I was going to go visit a friend for a weekend (Out of town) and there was a Love's on the way home from where I was coming from and I decided to try one.
I looked over the guidelines and the report before I left and I made some mental notes.
Hopefully I got all the require pictures and all and I did not miss anything.
So we will see

These usually take about an hour. That is way too much time spent for the low pay. You have to be creative to take the covert pictures inside the store.
I pick these up when I travel. Easy cash and some free grub. I have one close to home with no restaurants I will grab when the price gets high enough.
It's been a few years since I did one but I felt that there was way too much narrative involved. Even with a bonus fee.
If I do them, and I rarely do, it is when it gets to about $25 + reimbursement. Base pay is not enough for the required pics and commentary.
I prefer the competitor shops if I can snag one - not as many requirements.

These take me about 20 minutes, a little longer if there's a drive thru. I try to combine them with roadtrips so I get paid to eat when we would have stopped anyways. I'll do the report on my phone while my husband drives.
I just finished a route. I actually picked up a couple of these shops ONLY because they were an Arby's and a Subway. I'm not doing one that has a McDonald's because I can't eat their food. Doing a McDonald would be a waste of funds. But a cold Sub sandwich and an Arbys sandwich can be eaten later. The photos was overall easy to do. I did everything while onsite and it was a one and done.

Historically McDonalds is excluded from the food ordering list. Often if there is a McDonald's there is another restaurant such as Chesters which is to be evaluated instead.
