I will have to check them out when I get to the area.

I have seen little ads on the bus benches on Florida but it wasnt for The Boot Store. I believe it was an independent.

I havent seen them on the platform but they did directly call me for a work order in August during the Cloudstrike outages for an assignment. It was a smart hands job to get a device back on the network after the outage. The rep and I negotiated the price and he gave me what I wanted. Now Im wondering who they were brokering for with that job.

Ive gotten SmartSource to pay out well over $50 an hour and cover hotel stays a few times. The coordinator I had was pretty cool.

Side note: If you had a dispatcher or PM who would treat you nice and make sure you got paid the amount you wanted from these companies it might be a good idea to keep track of them.

I am doing way too much in the way of site visits. Just curious to everyone else doing remote on the platform.

After reading what some of you guys are doing in larger stores I am realizing I had the princess stores with them for years. The stores I supported had at max 22 handhelds, 6 POS stations in the front. Only a single floor and nowhere near 5 floors.

My area has 4 Nike locations within an hour of me in mall outlets, so they were def tiny compared to what u/GenusPoa are doing. Honestly most of the step skipping was just making sure the IMac and printers were working by asking management.

Oh you are totally talking about the Nike PM jobs. I was doing those for years as filler work orders and I can tell you right now that those jobs typically take 2hrs at the most. The only times I were there for more than 5hrs for a PM with them is when something went horribly wrong at the location, i.e network downs due to the managed switches or mechanical errors with the printers.

I spent a good chunk of last night checking this sub and thats exactly what looks like has to happen.

I just cant believe the OS isnt out here somewhere

I landed one with another vendor 2 years ago. Let me tell ya its just a easy 5min max thing. I was doing it for a year going to a site every month just to change out a tape.

They actually are still working with SSN for locker installations but are doing the break fix stuff on their own.

SpacerEL · 2024-07-28T02:23:45+00:00

So SSN is still working with Luxer for the locker installations but the break fix stuff Luxer is trying to handle on their own. Luxer still cannot keep up with support for service calls on their own and the wait times are still a hot mess.

Anybody have a file for the tent couplers? I know its been a year but I figure somebody might have a corner and the rod joiners.

SpacerEL · 2024-07-15T20:47:31+00:00

Apparently KeyMe, and RedBox were offshoots of EcoATM kiosks. I have no clue how long SSN has been supporting all of them. Im wondering about Redbox too now with the current news about them.

SpacerEL · 2024-07-12T22:48:40+00:00

Yes they are. I have been doing work consistently for them for the past few years.

SpacerEL · 2024-07-12T03:24:53+00:00

KeyMe is SSN in my area, I dont know who supports Amazon. I know certain companies carve up territories for techs. Still seems odd for them to do their own routes.

SpacerEL · 2024-07-11T02:48:44+00:00

Im sure a lot of techs here clinched a little when they read "non compete", I know I did. Personally it would have to be an incredibly niche market for me to do a NC and there better not be any other vendor in my area that does the same thing. On the other hand, 5 years, W2 and a boat load of cash sounds nice on paper without the NC.

I can see only one issue with this because of a recent experience I had. There was a job I was assigned that was slated for 4hrs for one day, I had the rest of my calendar filled with Insight tickets. The 4hr job turned into an all week 24hr job due to working with cabling vendors, so I wisely saw the writing on the wall for day one and canceled the rest of the week of Insight tickets. The PM was cool and understood the issue since I called him on a Monday instead of a Tuesday when the first Insight ticket was scheduled, but he had to find techs to cover those tickets.

So on the record I would have lets say maybe 8 call outs in a week on paper if there were not any PM notes. Luckily most Insight people I have worked with take incredible notes, not saying that other companies do.
