I see a couple of jobs I would be interested in on RE but I can't access the notes or apply for the assignment....aaarrrrgggghhhh !!!!

I can't see any jobs on RE. Can't work out if it's a glitch or there just aren't any jobs! I use safari, and have checked in firefox but I don't have IE. I'm showing 4 pubs available, but when I click into it there aren't any jobs!

Creaker did you do MS'ing in the States. I googled MS'ing ages ago and came across a forum which I joined. After I few days I realised they were all US but they made me really welcome and I found all their problems were similar to ours. ie fee's going down, petrol costs going up etc.

No, I just started MSing about a year ago after reading this forum and this thread. I have looked into MSing in the US, because I'm planning to move back and I did find a good forum and register for a MS company in anticipation. I do get job listings from them and the fees appear to be even lower than REs which is frightening, however, that is only one company and that forum showed quite a few companies so I will sign up to more once I do go back. I agree with you about there being the same issues over there as over here.

It's funny if anyone had asked me in December 2008 what MSing was I would have had no clue, now I can't imagine not doing it, unless I win the Lotto of course

Boo, I cannot accept any jobs on RE at the moment. I can see them but when I try to select one it keeps saying there is an error on the page.

Nope, nowhere near, I'm afraid.

Spoke to someone at RE yesterday. They're having loads of probs - I completed a job but it's still showing as active although the lady said she could see it was completed.

God knows who tests their website - it's been pants since they re-vamped it last year !

After much practice I have perfected my technique;) It involves half filling the bowl then arranging the apple slices vertically around the edge. It more than doubles the size of the bowl.

Learnt this one as a student years ago! The main refectory had a salad bar, fill a bowl for 75p

Works with carrot and cucumber sticks as well.

After building, put a layer of sticky stuff like pot salad/pasta salad to glue it in place and stop little things like raisins falling through the cracks in the new wall.

Have to admit never doing it at Pizza Hut as there's only about 3 dishes in my local that look edible

There is a technique in piling it high, make sure the big stuff like the new potatoes goes on top, and don`t trip on the way back to the table..hehe!
Enjoy your pizza.....I had one yesterday!

When I had it last time I placed sweetcorn on top to finish off, which of course spilled out of the bowl (silly me!).:o I must remember to weigh it down with the new potatoes, after building the salad tower following fabsaver's technique!:rotfl:
