I've not had the best of days - I got a parking ticket for overstaying by 10 minutes when I was MSing 2 banks (also trying to find shorts that my daughter will wear as she is very picky and generally considers shorts 'boyish' but has to wear them for sports week). Then my son wee-d on the floor at an incredibly expensive garage. :eek:

And I've only got 1 job booked for the next couple of weeks. But it's a good one - a flight to the US! :beer: Better start packing I think.

You deserve the flight to make up for the wee! :rotfl:

BTW, is the flight shop one by the usual MS firms? Or is there a specialist one?

The flights are from Bare. You need a good rating and to have done a few shops for them, but always worth applying next time they come up, you never know you might get one too. It's the first flight that I've done, but other people on here have done quite a few I think.

I'll keep my eyes open for jobs in my area on Bare then! Has anyone else done any of the training things for Bare? I've done two (the Basic one, and English speaking one) and wondered if most Bare regulars have done more?

I've yet to do my first job for them yet - although I've only applied for the recent calls/email ones as nothing else appears to have been near me yet - and I'm too young for car circuits!

I've just done the Basic one. The first job that I was offered from them was a car circuit, quite far away from me, but I decided it was worth doing (well we took the kids to the beach too). They were happy with that and I have been offered lots of work from them since then. So worth applying for everything and if they ring offering you a job, give it a go, even if it isn't the best job, just to get started.

Yesterday I changed the date of an RE phone job & printed out paperwork. Today it has disappeared from my live jobs but they haven't contacted me & no points have been deducted. Anyone else had this? Will have to ring tomorrow

well im now hoping for bluewater next month so thats fine by me ive got one nearer to home this time. Or even better I might see some for when I go back home for holiday - but there are not many department stores in the southwest so not likely! :eek:

Normally once we select one can we not do anymore? When I did one before I think it was one of the last few remaining or a released job so Im not sure if this is normal or not.
