Evening everyone!

I've just done my first RE job, an underground shop, and upon submitting my report it asked for a picture of the front of the store. On the assignment notes it said that you no longer need a picture so I rather naughtily took a screenshot from Google Streetview and added that. The other thing is it said you had to take a picture of the sandwich which I did but it did not ask for the picture of the sarnie.....has anyone else come across this?

It wasn't a good report either, the sandwich was good but the staff more than a little surly.

And sorry if this has been asked a trillion times before but does anyone have an idea how long it will take to come off probation? Is it just one job? There's another underground shop near me available but I can't accept it because of being on probation and only allowed one job at a time

Did the notes say you should take a picture of your "Underground"-roll and upload it where it says to upload a store front image? The last two I did told me this and this was only a couple of weeks ago.

Hi
Does anyone know how edigital pay your fee? I have raised an invoice but can't see anywhere to put my bank details. I wonder if they will send me a cheque??
Thnx

If you keep all your notes for a while, it makes it easier to look back and find staff descriptions etc.

I've got loads of lever arch files on shelves here with job notes in, and I have had to go back and look things up before.

They do one cheque run around the 20th each month. Anything invoiced before the 20th will be processed and you'll get a cheque through the post towards the end of the month.

Probably not, I'm still waiting for tax returns to be calculated from 2004/5 after I questioned there calculations

They are not the most efficient of organisations!

However, do call them if your worried, they log EVERYTHING!

Morning all,

Just completed a report for RE for a rather bad food outlet (some little bakery from France)

How long do you think it'll be before the queries come in?!

It was rather poor service and I think I translated that quite well onto the page!!!

Batten down the hatches!

Anybody else got anything on?

A couple of weeks ago I had an RE job (OK, it was about a month ago, before the drought, thinking about it) at a tapas restaurant where the service was dire and the food bordered on OK. I filled in the report in detail, very honestly, and not one question came back on it - so they don't always question the bad reports, there is hope!
