hi so ive been to GAP and got tons of phone jobs to thanks to alerts. but as for the others i cannot see any of them???? do i need to do some sort of orientation or something - i am now allowed to do pizza jobs but the competitor ones always show up for me. but i cant see any of these others?

I can see the pizza competitors but not the pizzas. I used to be able to, but after deliberately failing the screening questions for the chicken jobs (to stop them asking me to do them) I am now not seeing the pizzas. However I then signed up my partner and he is able to see the pizzas, so this could be a way round it. :cool:

Until today, I could only see a few pizza and lots of burgers. Yesterday I could see 1 chicken, but it went quickly.

Today a couple of chicken ones came up - so I did the test. After that, hundreds of sandwiches and phones came up, including competitors. I did the tests, searched again and chose mine. Whats funny though is that in the time it took for me to select my assignments, add to basket and them submit, half of them had been taken!

Some people must be much quicker at clicking that I am! hee hee

I can see the pizzas but not the pizza competitors - any clue as to who they are??

How many clients do GAP have altogether ? I can see 11 sometimes 12

They are competitors of the GAP pizza company. Nobody in particular, anybody who competes with them.

Crazy!

GAP Buster just called me and said "I've noticed you have taken up a lot of assignments recently and some in another town ... how far away from you is it? " - I thought ... oops, did I do something wrong?

Turns out they have an urgent assignment and asked if I could do it. I'm actually teaching at the time and told him so, but he offered me extra money and said he could find me more assignments if I did it ... unfortunately it still wouldn't be worth it, especially if you add on the travel time. He hung up pretty quick after that, even though I thanked him for considering me.

Has anyone else experienced this? Because I was under the impression (from the initial post in this very thread) that contact from GAP was strictly not allowed and was a sackable offence!

Kinda wish I'd been able to accept it, but at the same time ... it may have been a little dodgy?!

I never saw the Spanish Restaurants on RE until I'd got 500 points but I don't know if it's just because I wasn't quick enough!

Bad news, I'm afraid... I saw the Spanish restaurants after about 100-150 points.... I even saw hotel stay jobs back then but nothing lately (or I'm not quick enough):A

No... calling GAP is second only to murder. However, they can call you if they want to. *rolls eyes*

One time, I was in a phone shop and overheard a loud conversation that the other staff were having. They were complaining loudly about the pay structure and the commissions that they had missed out on that month....... I had no qualms what so ever about letting the MS company know exactly what my impressions were!

That is nothing. I once did a shop and part way through my conversation with the salesman, another member of staff came over and said to him "Someone's here to see you". The salesman excused himself and after a few minutes I went to look for him. I found him near the enterance talking to another guy. I thought at first he was talking to another customer until I heard the phrase "She's not great looking but she's got massive t!ts"... :eek:

Trying_to_be_good

I'm hoping someone can help (have tried a search, but can't find the answer).

I've started MSing with Retail Eyes, and have compoleted three jobs. THe first was due for payment on 10 Jun, and slipped to 25 Jun and was added to the second job. Payment for both has now slipped to 10 Jula nd been added to the third job.

Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to NOT do a job for a few weeks to get paid? I don't have any messages from them to tell me I need to do anything extra to get paid, so I'm a bit clueless!

Thanks!
