This is getting quite silly - I have obviously been blocked cos I cant tick any of the jobs - Ill wait to see what they mail me back - if they bother. Its odd, cos its not like ive messed a job up as Ive never done one yet.

OK, I have now booked it but once again the assignment number is not valid - am I getting on your nerves with all this?? Go on be honest - its really annoying me too!

Hi annasbee, did you complete the orientation for the job? Maybe that's why? Otherwise, I can't suggest anything else. Haven't done a job for Gap yet myself.

Yes, passed the test first time so that shouldnt be the prob

If you had (for any reason - who knows how the collective Gap mind works!) been blocked from this client, you just wouldn't see any of their jobs on your list. So you haven't been sacked. It seems that Gap will not allow you to do this particular visit - can't think of a reason if you haven't done it before though. You should be OK next time it comes up.

Option three seems the best bet - otherwise Ill be looking like Billy no mates when I come out without my friend or relative and my street cred wont allow me to claim to be a trainspotter and anyway, I dont have an anorak.
Ill just sit back now and wait for all the abuse from trainspotters shall I?

If you want some lingo to pass yourself as a "rail enthusiast" you need but ask...! "I want to get a good picture of a class 67" or "There is a rare multiple unit due in soon"

Other alternative - how much is a ingle to Westfield / Derby Road now?

I assume you have followed all the steps correctly.

1. Ticked "please read all aasignment details"
2.Under "shop date" you have used the drop down menus to select a date and time
3.Ticked "add to basket
4.View basket and subnit.

If you didn't complete any of those steps then the job isn't allocated to you.

I'm sure you did all that , just confirming

Have the pharmacy visits disappeared off RE for everyone else, or just me?

Well would you believe it !! Just been back onto GAP search and my assignment is back up - same number that I had accepted - whats all that about do you think - how very dare they lol

They often don't release the assignement notes until a few days before you do the job, that might be what happened. So if the jobs are not in the next few days that might be why you can't access the notes yet. You usually get an email to tell you when this is the case.

we found they sold platform tickets. Do they still do them?

NO. Simon says :-


As "Simon" from National Express "Customer Relations" says, "People will no longer be allowed on the platform without a ticket. This is going to be implemented on every station up and down the East Coast line. We do not have any plans to issue a platform ticket in the foreseeable future."

Guess there will be lots of booked station jobs becoming unbooked all of a sudden. To go with all the unbooked airport jobs when people realised how much to park the car. LOL
