Even though I got invited to a lucrative focus group I decided not to do it

Here is why I didn't want to do the group, even though the agency that recruited is legitimate..they pay through Amazon..which if it is not real cash, I am automatically less interested. It is in Washington DC at night..not in an area of the city I am too familiar with, and she couldn't even tell me how close it was to the metro. There is a 4 to 6 week delay in payment,,and that is a long time! I hate delayed payment things. All in all, it just did not seem to be worth it. If it was during the day, I might have done it..but all things considered..it just seemed like too much trouble..after all I am 100 miles from DC hardly next door. Would you have done it?

Yeah, it just didn't seem to be worth the trouble, and the expense of getting there.

@snowy22315 Like that you would be working for the travel expenses plus it was at night too.

Yes, and it would cost probably at least 35 dollars to go there and back.

Yeah, Unless it is something super I don't usually go beyond Alexandria for things like that.

I like them alot. This one was through Product Report Card. I guess they are looking for DC participants.

Well, I would have liked to have done it..And it was in the Dupont Circle area,,it probably wasn't far from the metro..but a long train ride too.

Too much distance and dangerous DC at night? No way.
