Well, it looks like I'll be done shopping with GBW. I've always heard the horror stories, but up until this point I haven't had any problems. Granted, though, I don't do very many shops with them at all. The QC person that was emailing with questions about the employees never actually said the shop was rejected. In fact, the last email from him stated that he would get back to me if there were any further questions. But upon logging into the website today, I see that the shop is listed as 'Completed - Invalid'. So I fully assume that means I won't be getting paid for it. I've emailed the QC guy for clarification and am curious as to his response. I just find it unbelievable. I mean the employees I interacted with were men, not women. And it was in a shoe store that would obviously have camera footage to verify. Oh well, I guess they'll be getting the axe on my spreadsheet. I can't work for a company like that.
