    Oh no, I agree what you are saying about the questionnaires. I love Gaps as they are so much easier compared to REs! I meant more that their particular client appeared to be hard work judging by some of the comments on here in the past.

    Oooooh yes, I see what you mean now lol. Yes, you are right. This client is wonderful....... as long as the reports are glowing :mad:. If the report is less than excellent they have been known to ask dumb questions and try to discredit the MSer. I have had this before but have stuck to my guns and as I know that all my timings etc are spot on, I don't worry about it. It does however, seem strange that some people have been sacked very shortly after submitting an unfavourable report. Many others have been sacked who have never done jobs for htis client. It seems to be a bit of a lottery and I just take the benefits while they are there.

    Question (answered) on questionnaire: "Please detail what you had to eat during your visit".

    Receipt provided detailing everything we ordered...

    Proofreading query: "Please state what you ordered"... um I thought I already had. Twice ;-) :wall:

    The Gap chicken questionnaire asks you at least 3 times what the persons name was and how you found it out!!

    Never seen one yet - is there some sort of orientation for this client? Only I don't see it on my list... I assume they still have the client as there's a notice dated January re. menu items (or something! Not logged in to Gyp so going off the top of my head on subject matter). Or do you have to do X number of jobs to do them?

    Whilst on the subject of Gyp, they rang me for some local burger jobs yesterday... really didn't want to do ANY burgers this month but somehow got roped into 3! Would only do them as drive-through though. Got increased fee, a petrol job, 3 convenience stores & a pizza competitor too though, so can't really complain! Could have had more, but they were a bit too far afield for me at the moment.

    Has anyone done a peri-peri chicken job recently? Not had one before and menu guidance is a bit vague! It's the salad bowl bit that's got me confused: is there a "salad bowl" option?

    You posted as I was typing - funnily enough, you might be able to answer my question, though not sure if I want one if the whole report's like that :rotfl:

    Sf123 - yes there is a salad option. The reimbursement will just about cover a cheap starter, two mains, cheap side salad and 2 refillable drinks.

    ok, i've been seriously grumpy over the past week (had my car broken into then 8 days after had to spend more money on a tyre and tracking due to one hughe pot hole)

    Anyway,

    Not had a lot of shops booked, but had one today. The betting shop. Strangly enough i used to be a betting office manager for a little shop, but my knowledge is mainly limited to horse racing as i don't actually like sport.

    So, what the sausage was i going to put down for a football bet

    stood in the shop looking at the football sheet

    only female there, was a little nervous

    went to the counter and the first thing he said was 'you got ID'

    put my little bet on (random pick)

    and the best bit

    I only bl**dy won lol

    3-1 on the england match lol £22 to come into my purse

    I thought i would share as i see this as my change of luck,

    Tomorrow is a new day (although now have to do my ironing :()
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    I was just wondering if there is any alert protcol? For example, take ABAI. They tend to release their jobs in batches for each client. Just wondering if we are allowed to alert again once more jobs have been released or to take it that everyone will constantly check the site after the first alert. I imagine another batch of the red shops will be released soon after the first release yesterday, so should we alert again? Does that make sense or am I waffling?!

    Good question. I don't bother with the Alerts as the jobs don't appear for me. Esp GFK they are often in another area.

    And thank you as you have obviously read my tips thing. Titles are'nt really mandatory but do help people skimming through for an answer.
