    That's weird - I messed up the golden arches because I told them I was a veggie.... now I never see any golden arches jobs (unless it's a special project, for some reason those still show up!)


    I think s/he means by "them" the sarnie shops, not the chicken jobs....

    I see the underground ones. Sadly none in my area-I loooove their food.
    Be careful with the posh sarnies-I accepted one and then saw they are only open Mon-Fri which isn't helpful for a Sat/Sun only scenario.

    And I did forget to answer your query about Gap sorry :o a few people on here have been sacked from Gap with no warning whatsoever they are a law unto themselves with this kind of thing and can sack you from specific jobs or totally for no apparent reason, so far I have escaped the sacking but not sure for how long :rolleyes:

    Can someone just help me with Gap? Just signed up and did the general orientation. DO I have to get 100%? Also do I have to do an orientation with each of the companies individually to see their jobs? Was confused as I went and did a search adn saw lots of jobs for companies I hadn't oriented with yet...

    You don't have to do the orientation to see the jobs but if you want to bok one I think you need to do it before they let you accept it!

    You can see the jobs, but won't be able to accept them until you have done the orientation for the client.

    I wouldn't trust GAP as far as you can throw them.

    I joined up 3 weeks ago then they sacked me today for no reason

    I have emailed them to ask for an explanation.

    You get 3 goes to pass the orientation then you can get the work.

    The money isn't that great either. By the time you pay for parking and petrol, you get very little from it.

    Watch your backs with them:(

    In fact I would advise people to avoid them.
