If I happen to see something on GS I am interested in I just go to the source. I am usually in the position where I can wait to get paid.
Sentry doesn't allow access to their site if you have a Gigspot account.
Interesting, I am sure I have done work for them. More like over the last 10 years, who haven't I worked for?

I very rarely MS anymore
I can deal with Sassie on a phone for certain jobs but not for much more than 4 or 5 pictures. Time is money and it is too slow.
I always take any time the MSC gives as time in store (after you have done a few). I do very few one off jobs these days. I like stuff in batches so after the first few you have an idea whether it is worth it to do more.
Thanks
Guess I will have to look again at the guidelines.
They want you to ride the bike and use the treadmill? For 5 minutes each?
I have done quite a bit of work in Dick's Sporting Goods and don't mind the place, but I don't think I am in for exercising while I work.
I will do the debrands at closed stations only. And only as a drive by. Using Sassie on a phone (or a computer) takes too long on the picture upload time.
Maybe someday, they (many Sassie companies) will pitch in and get a proper app.
I have been doing stuff for them but I don't do narrative work anymore. They pay when they say and will usually extend dates without issue.
No problems with them here.
All depends on the job. I did 6 today for a 12 mile round trip in 1.5 hours including submission. Used 1.75 in gas. I was quite satisfied with my hourly rate for those.
Many places to get a combo for half that. I bet Wendy's double combo would be about 12.00.
5 Guys makes decent food but not anywhere worth the money in my book.
Nobody is making anybody do anything they don't want to. Last I checked, I signed up for every job I do. It is my choice. I will do a certain job on a certain day for a certain fee if it works for me that day. It might not work for that fee another day, so I don't do it.
Having the government involved, especially now, would not be in my best interest.
Yeah, that would suck. Those pictures went somewhere if they uploaded. Hopefully they find them.
I have mentioned a few times that storing a copy of pictures locally would be a good option but nobody cares. I was told it is a benefit to not use up space on my phone. I have space and I should be allowed to decide.
Hope they find your stuff
That is why I only do food that I would buy out of pocket. Don't care what the restaurants cost is. The value of the food is what I would be willing to pay for it.
Now if the report fee was high enough, I would probably venture to other places I normally would not go, to try it. That said, high report fees tend to equal small books and I have been retired from my essay career for awhile.
Other than the 3 picture jobs and ones I know are permanently closed (until they eventually open again), I only do them with an LOA. All the ones I did, you got paid if they refused so it didn't matter to me.

I've found some that only require a couple pics and a receipt. I won't do them for less than $10 and have got some for up to $15. Worth it on a route.
A 3 picture job that can be 100% complete in under 10 minutes. A profitable drive by or a 7 jobs in 2 hours door to door in my area.
I did over 50 in April. None left now, but easy money while it was there.
I don't do many food jobs. I like 5G, but don't think they are a good value for the price. The only place I know that has those won't let you view the guidelines prior to assigning.
How is the report?
I just had one with a gas station debrand, where the new owner did not care about the old owner listed on the LOA. Now the directions say to only use the LOA if someone complains and that is what I did. They should try to source the LOA from the new owner giving permission, as I think the new owner would understand the reasoning for the old owner wanting to confirm the debrand. The gas station em
If I have to explain why I missed something without prior notice, I tend to give as much evidence as possible to document my reasoning. IF, I wanted to keep working for them.
We all know stuff happens and so do they. I am sure they have heard every possible reason in the book and then some.
