    You need Adobe Reader, most PC's come with this already loaded but if you need to down load it you can from http://get.adobe.com/uk/reader/

    Thank you
    I already have ADOBE Reader 9, shouldn't this work?
    When I click on the link its only been updated to version 9.2:confused:

    It should do, I checked the links I have and they are working so it doesn't seem to be the website so I'm not sure what else to suggest.

    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.

    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 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!

    Possible as a one off, or a few weeks but I know I certainly couldn't cope with that regularly, I'd be exhausted!
  • If you go to the "My Assignments" page there should be a link next to the job on there for you to upload the photo.

    Thanks again, managed to upload them both.icon7.gif

    i do have another question, on ESA have long does it take them to email and say you have the assignment?

    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.
    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!!!

    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.

    Ditto that, but each to their own!

    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.
