On the supermarket front TNS do a supermarket and GR do as well.

I've never seen a supermarket on GR - is it because I'm a bloke and shopping is a girlie thing??? Are they discriminating against us men???

I've seen them (and I'm a bloke) but they're as rare as hen's teeth (certainly in my area).

I'm a bloke and I accepted a supermarket job in my area last night via GR.


I'm annoyed that I took the test for the chicken jobs on GAP and failed as 2 of the answers weren't in the manual so I had to guess them. I got them both wrong, but change my guesses on my second attempt but still got one wrong so I've failed it. If the information had been in the bleeding manual I would'nt have had to guess! GRRRRR

I'd answered one of the screening questions wrong a while back, which was annoying since I'd done the training. I emailed them and they reset the screening questions for me.

No more answering questions at 1am for me!!

I was told you can NEVER take it again! Once you've failed, that's it forever.

I was scared of emailing them in case they sacked me...
