I'm not perfect, I don't profess to be!

I did once balls-up a TNS visit to a supermarket, The visit was to be done between [for example] 7-9pm, and I went at something like 8.50pm and didn't get out until 9.05pm. I didn't get paid for the visit as I'd not completed it within the guidelines. To be fair, if I'd simply walked quick in the store, and ran from the car to the store, then it'd have been fine as all the counter/desks that I needed were all shut up anyway, but obviously if I'd got out by 8.59pm then they'd have had to pay me for it. But I didn't, so they didn't!

Thought you'd only ever done one TNS supermarket job, hated it, and vowed never to do another?

Also, someone, HollyP (who's name isn't even Holly!) i think, mentioned not getting report queries even when they were new; the only one I've had so far (from memory) was from a recent RE bookies, when they were asking me if I was sure there was only one customer in the shop. I explained that yes, I was sure, and that their client should check CCTV before querying other aspects of my report. I never heard anymore from them, and they've paid me. I did 6 that day I think, I'd had enough by the 4th!

So what if her name isn't Holly?

Is yours Monkey?

Is mine Tractor?

Maybe we should all become our alias via depoll!
I have been registered with React and MCE for a couple of weeks but havent been able to see a single job. Is this because they dont have any in my area or because I have somehow managed to blacklist myself before Ive even started??
It is very quiet at the moment (all the glaswegians and their speedy fingers stealing the jobs before my old machine can even log on... )

I very rarely see anything on MCE - nothing that I've wanted to pick up so far either so haven't done a job for them yet.

I have 2/3 jobs every month regularly from React but have none from MCE. For MCE I think you can click on the "jobs outside your area" then other jobs will appear.

I am more of a Hamlet man than a trendy man, though not so much these days - I stopped smoking over 18 months ago (2nd Jan 2008 - I wasn't going to throw away half a pack of ciggies just to say I'd quit for the new year!!).

You !!!!!!! Now I was thinking you were a lesbian! Oh god, can it get any worse?

Yes our Mysterious girl has hidden depths.

But then maybe she is a bloke. I am totally confused now.

I hereby confirm I am a female midget. Which is why I struggle assessing people's height on reports as everyone is taller than me.[/QUOTE]
I am the midget! Haven't you seen my Avatar?

It just confuses me, that's all. Why are so many on here so defensive?!

And yes, my name is monkey, fyi! I changed it by deedpoll, honest! Well, maybe not. But that's what a lot of people know me as.
