I always thought (or at least i've seen) those displays are out front not behind a till

I dunno. Was hoping to do it discretely as no one cares about a letter of authority :/

This looks ok but not really working from home as such, but will give it a go and have sent a link to my son also.

How are people able to reserve jobs already? I received an email that said I could reserve from 3pm today. I've checked the app now and they only have mystery cigarette jobs. Does this mean certain members have had a headstart in reserving? If you complete 40 jobs in a day does this effectively make them £6 each? Should be that as standard honestly but has been hidden in a 'bonus'. Photos required around a till most likely require some kind of interaction. You effectively take photos in front of the cashier's face which generally doesn't go down well unless there has been an announcement.

Exactly, they should tell them to expect us

Hi lovely Shedders,

I messaged Shepper and the jobs are available on the market so you can accept them in advance right now. You can select up to 40 jobs to start on Wednesday 3rd March '21.

I have selected my 40 and I may do some of the tobacco ones as well as I go along.
Just click on the green Accept and the job will be yours. You can also cancel if you chose a wrong job.

40 in a day???? They've increased the allocated time to 10 minutes from five but I did one of the trial ones last week.. More than 10 minutes probably 15 once you've done a few and got it nailed. But add onto the 10 minutes the time it takes to explain why you're there, move out of the way to social distance from customers AND wait til the job is approved before moving onto the next one. The ones released today in my area are only available on Wednesday though so only the one day to do em

Hi @Annie Beau

This campaign can be completed over 5 days. It becomes live on 3rd March and lasts till 7th March, 7am to 10pm each day. I don't know if I can bag all 40 of these stores but I have them assigned to me now and I will pick them off one by one. You can do as many or as few as you want. I am starting with the ones closer to home then venturing further afield.

But usually the jobs need to be completed on the day mentioned on the job spec. All mine say Wednesday 3rd so I would assume that as with previous Shepper jobs that's the deadline day

I've never done a job for Shepper before. Do you have to wait for one job to be approved before you can move on to the next and if so, how long does this usually take?

Also, has a shop ever not allowed anyone to do the job despite having the letter of authority? If so, would you not get paid for that job?

IIRC with Shepper you can do multiple jobs before approval (only ones i have ever done were these internet/phone things in city centre a long time ago, that may have changed as that was before the current app)... LOA are generally tripe... as useful as a chocolate fireguard TBH if you can do a job incognito then do it, if not and you need show an LOA you are almost guaranteed to get sent packing (especially in smaller independent shops) there are exceptions when a shop has been informed that you may visit... the apps will always SAY the shop is expecting you, but in reality they dont ...this you find out by doing one job, if they dont know what you are on about no other shop will either/// As for payment for non completion, i dont know how Shepper work but with all the other apps if it states in the brief that you will get paid something for a refusal then yes, but if it doesnt state that then normally no pay

Thank you. That's put me off a bit tbh. Can't be bothered with trying to do them incognito.

Sorry didnt mean to put you off it... This could be a simple straight forward task (Although i believe you have to take a pic of the terminal which is of course behind counter and impossible to do incognito) as i say try one if its a train wreck, all will be the same if not then try another and hope it stays same

£4.50 each one is not bad, have reserved 10 as I'm on a pushbike.

It's ok, I'd rather know the reality before I go reserving 40 of them :ROFLMAO:

Would be better if they had given us some official id badges.
You could make your own, it would have as much authority as the LOA.

Small shop owners don't care if you've got a letter from the queen, they will not want you doing ANYTHING in their shop and will tell you to leave/chase you out if they even think you are up to something!

I tend to avoid any task that requires

photos inside a cornershop - you'll get rumbled PDQ and asked to leave.
'introduce yourself to the employee' - They don't care.And will view you with suspicion.
Ask lots of detailed questions like "Do you stock brand x vape? Have you got a vape recommendation?" - no-one asks the geezer down the cornershop that.

Tasks I love

Outdoor photography - take your time and no-one bothers you.
betting shop tasks - they are weird places where EVERYONE is on their phone every 30 seconds.
supermarket tasks - Literally no-one cares!
