C'mon Google, we're the ones doing the work here

I enjoy being a Google guide despite the fact Google benefits monetarily from our work and we occasionally get a discounted movie ticket. Today I got an email from Google asking me to establish a list with five locations along with some copy to describe the places. Perhaps it’s my shortcomings negotiating computer directions, but I found them to be convoluted, confusing and so dam$ frustrating.

I’m sorry you feel that way, is there anything to do about it? Do you need help to learn how to make lists? Sorry I didn’t quite get that part

Hi @312 ,

Thank you for reaching out. You can see our Help Center for more here and also you can take a look at the New: Earn points for making amazing lists. I hope that helps.

Hi @312 - Being Local Guides and contributing to maps is a volunteer based activity. Don’t feel forced to do something just because you get an email from Google to do certain stuff.

With that said, can you elaborate more on the issue you’re experiencing with regards to creating lists? Perhaps I or others reading this can offer you some advice/suggestions
