is any one else doing a bare jeans job in an concession store ?

just not sure it is big enough for me to have totally different members of staff and two different expereiences, without arising suspicions when try an accessory and say "oohh its a bit pricy" then go over to jeans try them and say "oohh its a bit pricy"....

Only leaving them the opportunity to say "oohh there's the door"!

Is this one visit or two visits you're doing? Bit odd if it's one visit. You could raise an objection on the colour or the feel of the jeans too.

Yeah, ours was BOGOF, and also had garlic bread on offer at a quid.

I've noticed that their prices and offer differ soooo much, even in the next towns. They're franchises you see, and I guess the francisee must bre able to choose from a list of offer that he can do. Dunno really but I was well happy.

I've had cold pizza for breakfast and will be finishing it off for lunch...madness!

I didnt realise they were franchises. I was very happy too and would happily do another one ! Have you had enough of pizza yet ?! :rotfl:What with that and burger and chips for your supper tonight .... :rotfl::rotfl:

I bet they get lots of people who are just browsing and have no intention of purchasing, think this is similar really.

Mind you I can't do the jeans jobs, being both too old and too large sized, so what would I know! My very trendy sister wanted to do one of these jobs and was mortified to realise that she was too old too! She shops in places like this usually so bit of a shocker for her. :eek: We will have to console ourselves down the bingo, as I got sent a free ticket from the one I joined a few weeks ago for another MS, plus a free bottle of bubbly as it will be my birthday. Looking forward to that one, bound to be top rate stuff.

My first job with RE was an underground sandwich. Newbies do see a few other jobs besides the pubs I think.

Somebody posted a link to that story a few pages up. Not good....

They'd probably just have you try a different pair though if you did that...

I'd email them (LOL!!!) to explain, and promise it will be done tomorrow evening. I've done this before and it's been ok.

Hi
Has everyone now received the React application stuff. I have now got repetitive strain injury. Can you imagine when the staff at React open their inboxes on Tues. They did say they preferred recommendations this way as people who care enough to join a forum obviously care enough to do it properly. They often get people who join then either dont do the job, or dont do the results or generally are rubbish.

If anyone has been missed PM me ( while my fingers still work)

And good luck to you all. Hope you enjoy React as I certainly do.

That's not true I'm probationary on RE and can see ALL jobs, pubs, clubs, pharmacies etc. I haven't done a job for them yet. Check what your interests are on the homepage. Mine are all ticked so I can see every job even though I can only do 1 (next week) and can't choose anymore during my probabtionary status.
