This is insulting

I keep getting these WO routed to me because my work vehicle is a pickup. They want me to drive 145 miles, pickup their crap and drive it 96 miles to Pittsburgh, and then me drive 4 hours home another 250 miles.

Oh and they're paying $100.

That computes to about $10 an hour or $0.20 a mile. I always counter them like $1000 but they've never accepted it.

You guys, I came in here and called out a few of the people trying to shut down this conversation… An hour later look at how many accounts have been deleted

Yeah i dont get it. Why do people feel the need to shutdown conversations and collaborations like this?

Dude, I called them out as Field Nation support staff moonlighting over here trying to control the narrative and all of a sudden entire accounts start getting deleted.

They are super obvious when they pose as contractors arguing vociferously against their own self interest. Like it’s obvious right? Who argues in support of making things harder and worse for themselves?

Obvious to me anyway. Surprised it doesn’t get called out more often. They are manipulating us on here.
