Give RE a call in the morning. See what they say? I guess they would not expect you to do it.

AHA - panic over, I see it's only part of the parent company that's gone boobies up and not the whole company. sorry...:o:o:o

No, 10 restaurants will close. The rest will be turned into Giraffe restaurants.

I had yet another eye test today...fantastic service, really lovely people, store was impressive. The young lady chatting to me when choosing my specs was delightful. It was an A* visit.


BUT...



she didn't ask me to pay for my eye test! I didn't give it a moments thought until I was driving home. It’s such a shame and I feel really sad for them. I do so hope they will telephone in the morning to rectify the mistake so that I can add that to the report.

I also feel slightly criminal!

You know Rosie we don't pay for eye tests in Scotland. Was it an eye test and purchase report as when you return for the glasses you probably will be charged then. I am wondering if someone in the NHS will catch up and wonder about all my eye test. Even had 2 eye tests on the one day.

I did a see the dispenser one only last week. Told to say I had left my prescription at home. Thought I'd get marked down for it but got 10/10. The girl was abrupt and almost rude saying "No you can't see a dispenser you'll have to go home, fetch your precription and return"

One of thise times you are smugly thankful you are a MS'er and not a frustrated customer who wants to scream.

hey if that is the pizza one with gap i think the store number is the one under the chk number.

Thanks, that sounds right but there is no number there, which might have something to do with the fact that my receipt has "STORE COPY" written across the bottom

hello! does anyone know how long esa take to assign jobs when you apply for them? applied nearly a week ago and still not assigned! i've only just joined and did two jobs that they offered me over the phone!

had a really busy week last week but not much for the next few. doing pretty much every burger place in norwich i think and working my way through the menu! i initialy just took a few but as i got more desperate and they were still there i have been taking more of them! going to be sick of the sight of them soon and not very good for my diet!

on a plus i am getting my blackberry tomorrow woop woop

Not got a clue how they assign them Doesn't seem to be 1st come basis either. They sit in the assigned bit and then vanish. I have helped them out too going on a ferry to Dunoon and a round trip of 215 miles to Fort William and Oban. Then got a smallish supermarket and a funeral visit.

Hi, stupid question, I have a gap pizza job tomorrow, first one, full service, bit of a shame as it is during buffet time. Anyway, it says salad bowl but dosent specify one, can we order 2? Obviously the reinbursment wont cover this, but that is fine, I can't see that it would make any difference to the timings if you order more than one. Also do you *have* to have a table booking, it is just not the type of place I would usually book a table for.

I have ordered two of these before with no probs. Also I only booked for the first one I did and then haven't after that and have never had any probs either.

I didn't either and I cannot remember all that I did! However I looked in all the options and setups of each App and turned off and on all sorts until things worked. I did look on line at the Blackberry site too and looked in the owners forums etc for tips. As I said it took me several days to manage to get it to do all I wanted but now I wouldn't be without it.

Thanks Rosy Violet,

I will have to have a play with mine and a read on some forums I think.

I did something really silly today. I had a day out with OH and did a few MSing jobs too (or should I say, I booked some MSing jobs and then it turned into a day out!! LOL)

Anyway, I decided to use free Wi-fi in a burger place (I hadn't just shopped them BTW!!) as they were GAP jobs which needed to be done in time.

Two jobs I did were both phone jobs which were nearly identical apart from one question I think in the questionnaire and both nearly had the same title (same start just with Comps at the end) and because I was trying to be discreet with my paperwork I entered the results for the wrong job and didn't realise until after it had been submitted that I had mixed them up. So I emailed Gap as soon as I had submitted it but haven't heard anything back yet. It won't let me alter anything on it as it has been submitted.

I hope I don't get the boot and also has anyone else done anything quite so stupid?? :mad:
