    Hi all

    I have similar issues with Bare. I apply for lots of jobs but don't get many. I also find it frustrating that you have to wait so long for a decision on whether you are successful.

    However I have got a first class flight to LA to look forward to.

    Cheers Paul

    Question about the sandwich jobs, that RE and GAP both seem to do - I've only ever seen this firm on GAP, and when people post in the alerts thread about RE they tend to say it's in London. So is it a regional thing? I'm in Yorkshire, just wondering if anyone has ever seen this firm on RE in Yorkshire?

    The sarnie shop on RE seem to be mainly darn sarf.

    I did a couple of GAP sarnie jobs in your neck of the woods a couple of weeks ago Andy.

    Love one of the new questions that RE ask now that they're doing the station cafes. "What is your main reason for being in the station today?" :rotfl:

    It didn't have an option "To do a mystery shop", so I put travelling and then put in the comments I only went to do the mystery shop. Honestly!

    Have they not always had that question? They have for me anyway..?

    morning everyone, i just got my first job with RE job, can anyone tell me if their system
    is compatible with open office

    Well their 'system' is a website - you dont need any word processing software.

    One of my RE report has just been approved - points added for job completed and disappeared from Payment Pending instantly but it doesn't show up for payment. Should I send them a query?

    I have the same as you guys, noticed it early this morning, will give them a day or so to see if they fix it then drop them an email.

    SORRY for the huge post!

    This is definitely not a scam, it's a genuine assignment. I've had these emails before and also got this most recent one.

    The whole point is for people to realise that this involves a credit check and to make up their own minds whether they want to go for it or not. That's why the company are offering such a good fee. :)
