    Ugh, ever have one of those days where you wish you could just start again?!

    Yes, today was one of them, i swear today must be some kind of curse on MS. I wish I stayed at home today, one of my shops went wrong today.
    But guess you live and learn and like you say steeler theres always tomorow.
    You poor ting steeler, what a horrible day, take it easy !

    whats happened with Gap lately, theres nothing on there at all in my area, when there usually is a few. When do they update?
    thanks

    I've not done a job for them since May! sorry dont know when they update, but have just put some jobs on today if that helps
  • Day from hell! Spacesavers are a false economy for me, I made sure they stuck a 18" alloy spare in the focus we just got.

    In addition, on the baby chat, baby number two arrives next month, hopefully not clashing with the shops I have lined up!

    Sorry if this is a particularly dim question, but when you look at Gap jobs, they specify Mon-Wed or Thurs-Sat for example, but I can't see a due date anywhere. Where do I need to look to find the dates rather than the days?

    Just burgers and sandwiches on Gap that are new from yesterday. There are a few August ones still kicking about but nothing from pizza, stamps, bookies or convenience stores as yet...

    PS Just had an email from Gap (at 21.37), that I think someone else got yesterday, saying burgers, pizzas & chicken are on for Sept - but only burgers showing for me as yet!

    You use the drop down option just above where it says "Mon-Wed" for examples.

    If there's a mortar board next to the job on the right hand side it means you have to do a test before you're allowed to select the job and if there's just a "Requirements" option then you need to click on that to agree to their questions again before it will let you select the job.

    If GAP pay on the 24th and the 24th is a Sunday this month with the 25th being a bank holiday - does that mean payment should be made on Friday 23rd? Any ideas? Nothing coming up on GAP for me yet apart from a burger job I can't do as I'm doing one for the same place the week before.


    Last time it fell over the bank hol (May 26th) they paid on 28th and just kind of said oh, it's late cos of the bank holiday - it obviously crept up on them unawares!! Same way as this one will (note to self must stop being so cynical, but where Gap are concerned....) They did actually manage to pay on 21st Dec, so it's not all bad!
  • Oh dear Steelercaz , that is a day from hell. I also had to cancel a Gap job at the last minute due to an upset tummy (I'll say no more) so it's not just you. These things do happen and I don't know whether I'll be penalised. I tried to reschedule it but there were no alternative dates to choose from and since you can't phone them it doesn't make it that easy, really. I prefer TNS where you can usually reach someone.

    When I click on the 'please see requirements' bit above the mon-wed, nothing happens. It just says 'please see requirements'. Is it meant to say something different?
