"The shop records are locked by another Shopper or MFI Employee. Please select another shop."
Is it when another shopper is in the process of selecting that shop? I didn't think so, because I've seen this message for shops up to several hours. It's always a bummer, because the shop has a great fee that I want too.
But, when I click into the shop to accept it, I see the above message. At first, I thought it was due to someone else browsing the shop at the same time as me, but who got their first.
But, then, I'd see that message last up to many hours and think ...well, that's weird, could they really be browsing it for hours? Could it be a shop a scheduler has "reserved" for another shopper? But, if so, why would it be listed on the job board?
