I'm pretty new at this but I have successfully done about a dozen shops. Here's the situation. I was trying to plan multiple shops for the same day in a town about 45 miles away. I had one that in the preliminary paperwork stated I was to call in to a call center and be connected to someone with whom I would make an appointment for the walk in part of this visit. I accepted the shop but when I downloaded the paperwork the scenario was quite different. According to the paperwork I was not to call in advance or make an appointment but to simply walk in during business hours. The problem was, according to the paperwork the person I needed to see may or may not be there or could not see me. If that were the case I would need to make an appointment for another day to see this person.
This would not have been a big deal if perhaps I lived down the street from the business but it defiantly wasn't worth a 90 mile round trip for the fee being paid and it was clearly stated they wouldn't pay for 2 trips.
They did significantly alter the terms of the shop after the assignment had been accepted and I don't think that was right. But of course I don't want to get blackballed by this company as most of the jobs I taken from them have been fine.
What do you think?
