Morning all and happy Friday! :j

Was just wondering if anyone has done a nightclub job for RE before? I am quite tempted to do one in my area this weekend but am wondering if A, it looks a bit suss me hanging around a club on my own and B, if I can make the assignment stretch out to the required 90mins. I reckon I'll look like a right loser!! :rotfl:

I have done these a couple of times...

Its alright doing it by yourself but as you say making it to 90 mins is the hardest part, I suggest make it a date!

OK Will do. Currently waiting on GR answering phone!!! Stuck with supermarket results from yesterday. No checkouts at this one so not sure how to answer q's about how many manned checkouts etc

I'm waiting for GR to answer the phone too, been on hold since 9.00am, do they usually answer in the end?

My supermarket job has been cancelled, questions would not load for me

I've applied for 5 clothes shops, 4 of which I can only do tomorrow (which is the start of the timeframe). Do they think people have nothing else to do but their jobs??

I don't know Matthew. I have been waiting since 9am. Not usually like that. Usually you can leave a message and they call you back. Nnot getting the call back option. Tell you what whichever of us gets an answer stick a quick post on here.

Morning all.... has anyone done any holiday shops ???... had a quick scan but can't see any info on this, (sorry if iv'e missed it) I have 5 holiday jobs coming up, just had a thought. !!! when you make a enquiry about holiday they take your name an address.. well defiantly your name, not 100% about your address but i would most prob think they want you phone number too thinking about it.... anyway wont it all go on their central comp system, so when i go to the others it will pop up that you have already made a enquiry either that day or the previous, about another holiday.... look a bit suss if it does..

I was worried about this too. However, when the Travel Agent was putting the details in on the system, nothing showed up to suggest that I had visited other branches for quotes and the information on the system was branch specific. However, I'm sure Head Office can see everything. It may also be dependant on the Travel Company. I remember someone on here saying that with the ESA travel agents, all details could be seen.

Computer shops are all in the same shopping centre and should take about fifteen minutes each, travel agents this morning just hope the traffic isn't too bad. On way to do the first one now Hope everyones got a busy productive day ahead.

Same here, gave up after twenty minutes and sent them an email instead... I am assuming theres someone there since they've also cancelled my supermarket and they haven't just decided to have a lie in

Sounds like RE. They are the stingiest company out there, Do you mean the re-imbursement is only £5.49 if so that is what they will pay .Is it worth it then>>?? if you are willing to be out of pocket and spend an age doing the report it is your choice. Personally I wouldn't but it's a free choice.
