    What is the best website to use to plan the quickest route between jobs?

    http://www.drivingrouteplanner.com

    Used to use it nightly when I was doing service calls for an IT company to plan the next days route.

    Gap money for October visits in the bank. I am pleasantly surprised they paid in time this month.:)

    My recollection from last year is that they tried to wind up December mid-month, probably to avoid Christmas. So getting people paid to concentrate on the assignments makes sense.
  • My Mystery shopping work is going quite well and it is steady. I have a part time job as well but this has been good for me. Some of the payments leave alot to be desired but I have bought a couple of gifts.

    i find the paperwork afterwards takes a while and I hate taking photographs.
  • So what kind of delights does a higher shopper score with Gfk bring you? i know we cant name clients for the MS companies but is there anything I'm not seeing whilst only having a lowly 5?

    Does that take into consideration the likely traffic levels at the time of departure? i cant seem to find any journey planners that allow you to enter a start time.

    I use google maps but that will plan the route based on traffic levels at the time.

    No good when it comes to planning that 8am journey only at 11pm lol

    No it doesn't. You put in a list of post codes you need to visit and it gives the shortest/fastest routes.

    The AA and RAC have journey planners on their apps and traffic conditions/accidents etc.

    Are you doing by computer or Android?

    Android.
    I thought it sounded like a pain to do computer work after - especially as so many visits. As I have an iphone I'll have to email my photos to my computer shop by shop - with the postcode as a title - and do in the evening. Bottle of wine job I think!

    Can you not use the web version on your iThingy?
    Use Dropbox or Skydrive and it sends them automatically when you are connected to WiFi, means a quick coffee at a gyp burger and your photos are waiting for you.
    You guys are lucky btw managing to get started - I've had an email (at least I got one this time) saying my box wouldn't arrive today after all - it will be tomorrow. Fingers crossed it's late because they got it sent back and are now putting the rest of the stuff in. If I get it tomorrow and it's half empty I think I'll scream!

    I got enough POS to do 5 high yield visits that needed to be done now.
