Location, Location, Location: please be upfront once we move off site
This is more of a vent/rant than anything else. As we all know its is very common, but.. it does not have to be. I have wasted a few hours of texting and dm'ing only to find out they are 100-150 miles away from me. Not the 30 mile radius I searched in.
I get many of you SBs need discretion and safety. 100% on board with that. However, once we move offsite, please, please let us know ASAP you do not live near us at all.
I spent over two hours texting with 2 POTs. Hammered everything out. Then they tell me they live 100-150 miles from me. I would have never engaged them knowing this upfront. Or would have bowed out of the convo very early on.
I know most of us have a search radius for a reason. Mine is 30 miles. Maybe 50 max. So as not to have to 'travel' and vice versa. I know I will get downvoted for this one. but I am not a fan of paying your travel fees since you mislead me from the get go. One POT added a 20% travel fee after the fact. Yeah, no. Not a fan of that.
Please let us know ASAP and factor that into your ask. Not adding it on after the fact.
Back to our regularly shceduled program.
Happy Sugaring!
