I will NEVER do another $5 shop again either. They require too much for so little money. I have completed them in the past ONLY when it was on the way or in the same mall as other shops. When I first started over a year ago, I learned very quickly that those $5 shops were not worth my time. Hey, those gas shops for $5 are a monster!!!!!! I only complete telephone shops for $5 now and even then there has to be a number of them I’m completing the same day.

I am new at this and am tired of these cheap arse people who want to get rich off of your blood, sweat and tears and can’t even give you a tank of gas. Gas in my area is about $2.39 now and Exxon wants me to travel 10 miles, buy a $1 worth of gas and $1 worth of something I don’t need and they want me to see everything and shoot too many damned pics. The pay was $4. My camera cost me $500. OMG, I want to curse them so bad, it isn’t funny. I, too, refuse to take anymore $5 shops unless it is a phone shop and I can sit on my butt.

Now…with that said, I don’t print anything. I write on a piece of paper the key things I need to look for, so I don’t use the ink in my printer. Also, if I need to print something, I print in econo mode to save ink.

Even though I have an Exxon gas card, THAT doesn’t even offer any benefits. I could see if it offered some type of benefit and I could calculate that into the worthiness of doing such a shop.

Exxon SUX!!!

I took one just recently before I checked this out and now… I will do the shop, but I will not do any more. I already got the other one and don’t want to have a bad rep with a good company.

“Attica!!” Sorry. I will from now on follow this blog!
