    The reality is anyone can pretty much signup with these MS companies and find out the clients if they really wanted.

    I honestly don't think it is any big secret.

    Why it is such a big taboo on these threads I have no idea. As behind the scenes everyone talks about the fees and the clients.

    The fess for most MS companies are crap. Most people know it and quite frankly it is no secret.

    I disagree. Some of the fees for the work involved are very good.

    You're right anyone can sign up and find out the clients. No doubt since internet has made the work so much more accessible all employees of all agencies sign up too.

    But the point is you agree when you sign up not to discuss clients.

    I won't blatantly discuss such things which is probably why I don't have to rely on the lower fee work. I get very good fees and a lot of varied work. I also like variety which is why I will pick up my favourite lower paid work as it all helps my family in so many ways.

    I don't do it just for the money either. I know I give the client excellent feedback to improve service.

    Incidentally, I have nothing against newbie’s. I try to comment constructively on many occasions. I may not have been on this thread for long but feel at times I can add something to the discussion. I like to think I have been helpful. On many occasions I have PMed people where I feel it is inappropriate to discuss something openly.

    I had problems earlier...was hoping it was some big upload of jobs......but no - nothing!

    Still down.

    Entered up the complete report and pressed save and it was "saving" allthrough the secondhalf of the football before crashing.

    Luckily I write all my detailed comments in word before transferring so its no big deal.Still an excuse for a relaxing sherbet before lights out.

    btw how many of these station jobs cn you accept? im sure its just 2.
