    Thanks.
    The jobs were only for 1 day 21/05/09 - 21/05/09. Oh lordy another RE glitch. :mad:

    This all seems to have been resolved now but in case it helps anyone in the future - it happens a lot with the London sandwich jobs as there's so many of them near each other! You only get asked to call if it's a location which has two or more on one road, so they can check you know which one it is. That's why you may have not had to call in the past.

    Also, it seems we could only pick up two this wave, which is why the rest all disappeared even that late at night...

    HTH

    I had a bit of an issue with the posh sarnies -could not find the location listed ON a major London station (even went into the company's recruitment office in the station and they told me there wasn't one) so rang RE who were fab -gave me the left and right and found it tucked away. Still gets me tho that the client's own recruitment office didn't know they had a branch there just a few hundred yards away.
    I find RE to be incredibly helpful. I know there has been a lot of moans about them lately but I find them great to deal with.

    Hehe, just had a call from Gap.

    They just dont understand "No" :rotfl::rotfl:


    Staff member: Hello, would you like to do a "golden arches" job at a branch you have shopped before?

    Me: What date?

    Staff: Tomorrow, Saturday or Sunday, any time of day you like

    Me: Sorry, I cant, I'm working

    Staff: Ok, so which day would you like?

    Me: I cant, I am working on those days

    Staff: You can choose morning, lunch or evening. You can do it during your lunch break

    Me: No, sorry, I cant, I am working. And I dont get a very long lunch break as I'm self employed

    Staff: So which day would you like?

    Me: I just said no, I cant do the shop.

    Staff: Ok I will go ahead and add it to your account, if you cant do it you can email us and we will remove it

    tuesday night jobs didnt all just disappear quickly becuase you are only allowed two sandwich jobs. there was obviously a problem with the system - i did not even take two sandwich jobs and yet huge number of jobs disappeared in front of me. things i could see also were not even sandwich jobs. so dont know what was going on :rolleyes:

    Morning all

    I guess its possible that people could have been snapping up the jobs , they often do go pretty quickly.

    Quick question about GR - I did a shop for them on 6 May. I was expecting to be paid on 15th but it still says pending. They haven't contacted me with any queries. Is this usual?
