I think 30 jobs a week on top of a fulltime job is do-able.
Think of it as 4 jobs per working day (Mon-Fri we'll say) ; one in your lunch break and threee after work. That's 20 right there.
I'm sure that many of us have done 10+ jobs in a weekend, severl of us (me included) have done 10+ jobs on a Saturday.
It's possible IMO.0 -
D0-ableyes but then there is the reports to do as well. Some of them can take 20-30 minutes to do properly so that's an extra 10-15 hours a week. I'm sure as a one-off it's possible but every week for 5 years?I think 30 jobs a week on top of a fulltime job is do-able.

I think it's possible too, particularly if you travel a wide area in your everyday work, which I think Mike does. I wouldn't want relentless evenings doing the reports though....like a bit of social and family life in between!0 -
Possible as a one off, or a few weeks but I know I certainly couldn't cope with that regularly, I'd be exhausted!0

Thanks again, managed to upload them both.
i do have another question, on ESA have long does it take them to email and say you have the assignment?0 -
The most I ever did was 15 on a Saturday. It was easy as long as I kept to my tight time schedule. It is the reports that take the time, RE especially and I did start of with a breakfast at the burger joint! Also some of the jobs can be done up to 8pm : Supermarkets, petrol, chicken, burgers, drinks, meals etc.Rosy_Violet wrote: »I think it's possible too, particularly if you travel a wide area in your everyday work, which I think Mike does.

I run my own business and very much hands on but I can still manage to fit jobs around my working day. I may be going to the bank or past a supermarket anyway!
As it is often grab and run on the jobs available and I am registered with loads of companies...I am in awe that 20/30 jobs a week are available!!!0 -

It all depends on the type of job really doesn't it? A Gyp fuel job, less than five minuted to actually DO the visit, then about 5 minutes to do the report.
BARE Car job, at least 15 minutes for the visit, then at least 15 minutes to do the report.0 -
Ditto that, but each to their own!Possible as a one off, or a few weeks but I know I certainly couldn't cope with that regularly, I'd be exhausted!
Also, I guess what you class as "full time" some people clas more than 20something hours a week as full time, others class anything below 36 hours a week part time.0
