    I've been Money Tipped!
    Can anyone help with the question I posted on Monday about spreadsheets? When I click on the link in on the first page for a spreadsheet I cannot see that one comes up. I want to start my accounts and a spreadsheet would hopefully make it easier.

    Thanks

    Do you mean what an open audit is?

    if so...

    You'll have an authorisation letter to print out saying that "XX Audit company" is working on behalf of "the widget company" and they are requested to allow you to count how many widgets that "Big Stores Ltd" have in stock (or similar assignment).

    You'll then have to go to the store give the relevant manager the letter, sign in and do the job.
    Many thanks, you have made it a lot clearer now.

    Mysterious Girl - can you see any jobs near me on GfK?
    There were a few on there yesterday but they've all disappeared and I'm not sure if it was because I said I couldn't do an urgent job when they rang me. Funnily enough I do have a life outside MS'ing!

    Got first couple of jobs for Retail maxim next week just waiting for the paperwork to come through.

    Nope, nothing on the board near you. There's a few bank ones which are quite a bit down south - too far for me to travel.

    I've got one Retail Maxim next week. I only get about one every 6 months! The fee isn't brilliant either really as I have to do a purchase and return so will have to go to the post office as well.

    I've got 5 eggs to do tomorrow. I did 4 yesterday and I'll do my remaining one on Saturday. I've got a juicy burger and two in a posh department stores for tomorrow also but for different companies and different concessions. I don't know how I'm going to fit it all in. :eek:
    Doing the shops is a doddle - it's finding time to get the reports done that's the problem. :(

    has anyone who cannt self assign got some egg jobs finally? I am now able to see some after all these weeks of waiting but nearest is about 40 miles away and not somewhere i can cover :o im hoping if you are not allowed to shop them every month that next month my local ones will still be available when the self assign frenzy have had their fill and we get to see the left over jobs.[/QUOTE]

    I can finally see them and have applied for several. Not holding out much hope as I applied for some other jobs at the weekend, 10 in total and got precisely 0. Really can't see how I am ever going to get assigned any jobs but we will see.

    Has anyone had any experience of NOT entering the egg results on the day the assignments were done. I've got 5 to do tomorrow but will really struggle to get the reports done. I was hoping to do the reports on Saturday morning. I can't see the difference if I submitted them at say 10:30pm on Friday night or Saturday morning as there will be no one there to check them anyway, will there?
