    Quite a day- six jobs in three different towns. Rushed around some mobile phone stores in order to do a travel agents for Gap... for it to be shut. (Damn Bank Holiday.) Went within the timescale on the job notes so that was irritating. Have sent them a message saying why- any ideas what's best to do with the write-up? Just leave it? Or will that cause more fuss with them...

    I'd leave it and reschedule for another day. Assuming the system will allow this.

    I don't really want it again, to be honest. It's a train ride away, and I only went because I was passing through anyway. I've told them I don't want it again because it's inconvenient; I'm sure they'll love that.

    Just done a burger job. Got served really quickly even though it was busy but when the girl said do you want a receipt? and I said yes. She had to get the manager because they had run out of till roll so I've got a handwritten receipt which doesnt have a receipt number or anything. I deliberately pay with a card so I would get a receipt. I don't know what to do now. I know my bank statement will show that I went there. It's not my fault they had run out of till roll. This is my first job for that company so it's going to look bad.
    No it's not. It wont look bad. There is actually a question on the questionnaire says "type in 00000000" or some such for a hand written receipt. I have received hand-written receipts before which weren't questioned. Just put in the comment box at the end an explanation as to why you received a hand-written receipt. Also make sure you scan a copy of it to send to them at the end of the report.

    I'm a reasonably new shopper - and i've signed up to the alerts thread. There seems to be some saying RE has jobs yet I never see them. I check very often and straight after every alert but never anything. I've got a fairly good score from the few i've done..

    Do they put out regional shops at one time or a whole client?!

    I can't see any of the jobs posted on the alerts thread so I am sure they are released jobs.

    However RE don't release all jobs at the same time, so sometimes you need to check back an hour or so after the alert goes out if you can't see anything at that time.

    While we're on the subject of RE pubs, has anyone seen a "List A - List B" one recently? I havn't seen any for months and was wondering if they lost the contract?
