What do you think about a company which pays $10 and informs you after 45 days inform you that you would get paid if you wrote a $100 order per visit. They did not pay you for the stores which if you wrote an orde because it wasn’t $100.

I used to do this as I had to drive an hour from my home to do any real work, but what I asked of the companies I worked for was to work together. I told my schedulers how much it costs for me to drive to the shop or shops and that I’m asking all schedulers to contribute towards gas costs. I would openly reveal how much I’ve already received and how much is still needed. It worked and everyone was happy. But with the price of gas so high now I can not see that working for the miles I have to drive. Also the route….I made more by waiting for them individually than what was offered as a route. Also I always planned the trip ahead of time and hit the shops in a row. I did on average 10 to 20 shops in each trip and I planned them every four to five days as I had three different towns 1 hour from me. In the end I still did not make a good living though because my working hours made my pay min. wage.

my pickup only gets 12 mpg. so you know I do more than one shop a day. I make a route out of it The shops I get now aRE MOSTLY 17 TO 45.00 a big improvement since I got certified.
so I take 3-5 at a time and line them up in a row and go at it, while keeping the radius to 20 miles. good luck to all
