Morning Happy Shoppers,

There are no jobs in my area at the moment but I have GR one today and a GAP on the 7th. I hope it picks up soon....

I did two a few days ago - but come to think of it, I've never seen these on my job board - these were mentioned to me when they phoned to see if I could do an urgent coffee job (I couldn't btw, as it's two buses & takes almost two hours to get there, & even though he pleaded & would have upped the fee considerably going on past experience, I really couldn't fit it in this time). He did still let me do the fairly local grocery ones though........

I didn't even know they did these, so they must keep them to offer people as incentives like they do with the petrol jobs, which is all wrong!

I think that's right. GAP seem to be keeping the petrol and small supermarket jobs to give people as an incentive. I was asked to do a phone job last month and he gave me a petrol job as an incentive.

I have, however, booked two small local supermarket jobs for the middle of next month. Ironically I have already had 3 phone calls this morning asking me if I can do some jobs - had to explained that as today is D Day not going more than a few feet from the house!!!

Was very impressed with BARE as well. E-mailed to say hadn't been paid and got a call at 8.45am to say I hadn;t completed the IBAN number. I had but it didn;t look as if it had saved - typical. I e-mailed to say I had updated my profile and by 9.24am had an e-mail back to say I had been paid today - now that's service.

RM question:
I have had a look again at the paperwork and it says user name XXXXXX and password not used this visit. So does this mean that I do not have to put a password in for this assignmnet or is that the password for this visit. Am I just being thick I have tried the old login details and I have tried the company name, still not getting anywhere.

Please help me

Ring them and ask them. It probably means that they should be ringing you back, and have forgotten to book a callback. Ask politely if it is really a computer input report, and if so what the password is, or whether they want to take the results over the phone. RM staff are lovely!

Sorry for a late answer, if you haven't sorted this out yet, the password is usually in the paperwork file check both of them usually it is a series of numbers unless this has changed with the new website.

Have Gap stopped doing the small grocery shops? If so, who is doing them now?

They haven't stopped them, most of them go to the previliged burger eaters and the rest still come up. There are some at the moment so check you haven't mistakingly blocked yourself from seing them.

Just spotted the name IMS over on the alerts thread. I've never heard of them, they are not on my lists and google didn't bring up anything useful. Can anyone tell me who they are please?

princess_leia_3

I searched google and found them so I applied but they have no vacancies in my area! ( I wish that was the first question LOL)

Thanks Princess Leia. I just looked at the first page of Field Team Information, which does list some areas but they are all down south. Probably not worth me even bothering then!

i booked myself one of these last night for next month, and i've never done a burger job for them in my life! in fact i've only done one job for them so far. perhaps they are less choosy in my area...:rotfl:

Hmm thats useful to know as GR haven't paid me for the one and only job I did for them on 6th of this month. Are GR normally reliable with payments as i have only completed one previously for them.
