Congrats you guys. Never seen so many naff excuses for oogling MOS's boobs.

Us ladies don't get side benefits like that in our MS's. I have done a bra fitting but it was a female. Psst:rotfl:

The other week I had a home phone job and I thought the (male) agent wasn't wearing a name badge until his jacket moved and I saw it was on his trousers! Short of dropping my keys on the floor and ogling his crotch on the way up I couldn't see his name.

An interesting point Timmne which someone disagreed with me on. My take is by accepting crap fees from RE they eat up contracts from other companies who pay good fees. I know from several allocators they are undercutting other companies so losing them business.

Some people though said I was being unfair as some people need the money they are prepared to accept low fees.

It is similar to the time before the minimum wage was brought in as people who were desperate were taking jobs at ridiculously low wages undercutting the rest.

I agree that RE fees are low but G*P are even worse. In my area it seems that those 2 companies have the most work and the jobs go extremely quickly. I think that as MS is something that a lot of people do for a while and then stop thereby new people are always coming in and they don't get offered the better paid jobs. Unfortunately if you are new you have to take what you can get even though there's no profit in it.
IF RE have jobs that are offered to their best ms's I wonder how long, or more likely, what amount of points you need to have achieved?
Lets hope that in these 'peculiar' times that more companies will value our work more. Certainly some shops need 'shopping' because some of their staff are really rubbish and they obviously don't care about their jobs!!

Just had a strange experience with one of the pharmacies on RE. I downloaded the job notes and it was the same as the other 2 pharmacies I'd done this month and now when I've come to enter my results the scenario has changed! :mad: I wonder if it's changing for next month and they've just changed it all early. I seem to remember this happening to someone else in a previous round.

Think we may be enquiring about diarrhoea next month folks - sorry to be the bearer of such awful news!! :rotfl:

Still struggling with my log in to React, as the one they've given me doesn't work despite using correct spaces and capitalisation.

But I just love their web address www.mr-e-shopping.com someone with a sense of humour there methinks! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
