how much can you make with gap and do they pay expenses?

lol I'll do that next time. I'm also removing my home number. I get no signal where I live on my mobile so they'll never get hold of me

Have you registered with Gap? Best way is to do that and have a look for yourself as the question you asked is definitely a piece of string one.

i have registered and they phoned me today to do a burger shop ,but

Probably worth taking it, to get some practice - I started off doing these like they were going out of fashion but you soon get bored

Please take the fee out of your post! (Because it's embarassingly small!)

u tellin me lol
it does get better then?

Timmne

Yes, but it's a case of finding your feet. Nobody here will give you a guide on how to do it best because it's not possible, being so subjective. Some are doing MSing for the money and have loads of time free so they can get involved in auditing and lengthy mortgage interviews, others (like me) do it for the nice jobs, where you get something you like out of it (like coffee!) and a fee too. I don't accept any standard fee jobs now; I only take them if the company calls me and offers me more - it's a one-man boycott of the pants fees!

Timmne

But seriously, it would be good if you could remove the fee from your post - it's against Gap's Ts & Cs, along with every other MSing company.

lmao! I only like doing the nice ones, or ones with good fees at the moment. In the summer after my exams are over I'd like to get out and do the longer better paid ones. I just don't want to be harrassed !!

Hmm not really! :P

Some of the other companies pay ok, but really it is a job by job basis, some jobs are alright but some are a pita and you will only ever do them once!

Good luck
