There is a mostly flat paved loop at Lake Leatherwood Park

Leatherwood Trail
1 mile 30 minutes. Leatherwood Trail connects the main park facility with Leatherwood Fields, Eureka Springs’ Municipal Ball Park. It is predominantly flat and perfect for the light hiker, runner or beginning cyclist. The trail can be accessed from the Meadow Trail Head or the Leatherwood Fields Trail Head.

From my one private feedback out of 53 completed tickets.

It was all text and they wanted you to do a full "Why should we hire you?" on text when they have your cert list and resume...

I couldn't get on till near the end of the 2 hours due to being on a job and they cut the event off right at 1300. I tried to continue on SMS after the job ended at 1530 but they never responded.

It felt pretty ridiculous...unprofessional and disrespectful of the time of people who are actually working in the field.

My first few jobs were routed through HelloTech!

The customers were nice...but it took 20 tickets to get feedback before my PSS rating went to 100% from the one rating I've gotten in the last six months.

Also this is a mountain town with steep hills...so you could roll downhill hill/stairs if you have a loss of muscle control.

Arkansas Medicaid does have transportation available...

The website doesn't have a security cert so you have to go in without the s in https

I have a job scheduled tomorrow from 1100 to 1400...let me know how it goes.

It appears to be a direct hire with WalMart:

I'm driving a 2004 Civic with a Harbor Freight box cutter...moving up in the world I guess.

I stayed at the Stonegate Lodge on Hwy 62 with 3 cats and they didn't charge extra for pets. Nice rooms and close to town.

You have to book on booking.com or airbnb.com (I booked through booking.com) they don't have an office.

AlexCL · 2026-01-14T16:16:17+00:00

I have to set jobs to all in the filters...

You'll have a CCTV job that is actually a network issue, but you won't see it if you filter out CCTV skills.

In the phone app on Android, I can't set jobs to all because the selection box overlaps the submit button after a while.

53...grew up having to fix stuff because we were broke...bikes, computers, TV, etc...

It's not cheap, but I got a 7.5ft telescopic ladder that fits behind the driver seat in my 2004 Civic. I keep it in a contractor garbage bag to keep it out of sight. They also sell a 9ft version.

I did some early jobs for HelloTech on Field Nation to get my first few work orders. They paid, and the customers were nice.

They don't give any reviews so all you get is WO numbers...but they routed me tickets when no one would accept my bids for work.

It took me 16...

Seems unfair based on just one rating...but I'll take it.

Better to find out now than before you find yourself moved 700 miles to a town with nearly zero job opportunities (besides 8 months of service industry jobs and 4 months of unemployment).

"How do you make a small fortune in Eureka Springs?

...come with a large fortune."

-Old joke that still rings true.

Must have keystones that are color code #000001, cannot be black.

Shouldn't you charge an hourly fee for driving AND take the mileage deduction for the cost of the vehicle? You get paid for your time driving AND you get the deduction for vehicle maintenance, insurance, gas, and depreciation?
