    I didnt think it could get worse but ive just done my first RE report on the whizzy new system.

    Its absolute !!!!!.

    I have had to fill in left/right twice - not once - effin twice on a report on which I also had to submit a pic and a receipt.

    How much proof do these !!!!!!!!s need that I have done a flamin job.

    On top of that you now have to caption the uploads - so ive had to type -"receipt" under the receipt upload and "shop picture" under.....can you guess?

    Could they not have asked a few people to chip in with comments to iron out these niggles?

    Back to the other 6 reports ive still got to do.

    (Thank you for listening)

    Sounds a nightmare. Glad I've not got any pending jobs with them.

    CHILL. Pour a glass of wine before you start on the rest!

    yikes...I feel daunted too, I'm doing my fulltime job, 12 food shops, 2 phone shops, 1 bank shop and delivering the yellow pages. I feel really overstretched and wondering if I'll be able to handle them all.

    Right, so I've done 3 banks, 2 phone shops, 2 travel agents, 1 electrical store and 3 convenience stores in the last 3 days.

    In the next 5 days I've got to shop 11 convenience stores, 1 pet shop, 1 restaurant, 12 car showrooms and 2 DIY stores. I'm feeling a bit daunted by all this. Can you help motivate me?

    I've had a break over Xmas, like many other workers so I should be seeing this as just going back to work after the break, but it seems so hard. How do you all organise your days? I'm thinking I should try to focus on getting the reports done as soon as possible after getting in so I haven't got them dragging on into the evenings.

    on my spreadsheet i have a second page where i log jobs that i have booked. whenever i struggle to get motivated i just highlight the fee column or that day to see the total fees and usually gets me out of bed! yours should give you a leap with all those showrooms! think of all the nice things you can spend it on (or how much you can pay off a debt if you are being good :A) :D

Stuck 1 kg of carrots in the door for a nose. I am going to be up all night eating all the peanut butter. Not much wine left. That bryssnn has been in and emptied the place of wine again.
