God I'm bored. I've got nothing booked except some phone calls. (And of course the return first class flight to Hong Kong - HA HA wishfull thinking!) Is it quiet everywhere else too? The only thing available in my area are some pubs that I'm really not interested in.

Me too. I keep refreshing the RE page to see when they are putting on those 6000 jobs they keep telling us about but nothing:rolleyes: I was in London last week and I thought I would have been able to pick up loads of work while I was there but there was hardly anything.

I've got the same first class flights to HK lined up as well:D I think we'll have to toss for them:rotfl:

I missed out on a petrol assignment from GAP which they were using as incentive as I hadnt done the orientation, I was getting a convenience store and a petrol, have had to settle for the convenience store alone

I don't think it can be gfk because all it says when i log in there is :

An email will be sent to you when your application has been processed and you have been added to the mystery shopping panel.

I can't believe my first job has been messed up!

Does anyone do TNS? Are they online or phone? I did there test last week but haven't heard from them.

Do you know the name of the store you are meant to be visiting?

Which companies are you registered with - some abbreviate to initials rather than the full company name?

TNS can take 2/3 weeks to get back to you.

Nope, i was feeding the baby and i got an uknown caller they said hello i'm from (whatever company it was) i said who sorry and they said it again i said sorry i can't hear you and they said it again and then told me there was a job at my local shopping centre and could i do it i said absolutley he said between 4 and 6 i said yep he said i'll email the details and that was it.

I'm registered with:

retail eyes
gap buster
grassroots
tns
gfk
abai
bare
gks
IMS

the ones i haven't heard back from yet are:

frontline focus
performance in people

I think it's a lost cause and i will just have to apologise like crazy when they call and hope they offer me more. Although they didn't said me an email like they said they would.

I have a pub job with RE next tuesday which im looking forward too.

I think it'll be GAP for a burger job - check your 'my assignments' and see if it's there....

Hmmmmmm I think you'll just have to tell them you didn't get the email so couldn't do it; most companies are understanding and they'll probably reschedule it for you. Silly question, but did you check your spam filter?
