I'm not so bored that I need to do these. For that amount of work, I can get a high reimbursement and a $50 fee, pretty much any day from another company. I think that the lowest fee I will take on a good meal is $25. I have no idea why I would do these for reimbursement only? I got a call to do a shop with a $10 bonus. Fortunately, I was booked doing a one day shop at a casino with a .... $150 bonus on top of the fee. hahahahaha Unbelievable. If they want experienced, quality reports, they are going to need to pay for them.
