    Was doing one of the sports club running shoes purchases (to be returned to MS company) , and was so impressed with them-2 sizes bigger than usual so no wonder my others nip my toes, I bought them, and a new pair of socks- over £100! That's not what's supposed to happen, and I don't even go running!!!!!!!!!!!

    You too :o

    Although I have recently started running more, I posted the shoes back and bought another identical pair online for about 70% less than I paid in the shop. :eek:

    I couldn't get used to the treadmill - kept nearly falling over coz I've never used one before, so they had to let me jog up and down an aisle. But it was a great assignment, hoping I can get another next time around as there are a few more local than the one I did.

    Not sure I'll do it again, as I can't afford it :)

    You could if you weren't keeping the shoes :p

    Nah they are expensive assignments aren't they, at least I know they will do the refund and I can use my cc for the purchase so not affecting my bank balance too much overall in the negative.

    It's the easiest job in the world just checking the staff interaction in the snack area. All costs covered plus a good fee (ticket plus snacks). You also get to hand out a reward if the staff meet the criteria.

    I love them :)

    Quoted cuz im lazy haha

    Has anyone had any -1 and -2 showing on their RE accounts recently saying QUERY RAISED, only for no queries to be ever raised? I am confused.

    Not noticed this but I wouldn't worry as the points system seem to mean nothing in RE

    Hi, yes, I had this on Friday, and I emailed them Friday morning. I got the emails from the proof reading team later that night! Most ridiculous questions in the world.... 'How did it make me feel that I wasn't greeted as walked into the store' etc, that most certainly wasn't asked on the original report form!
    Then 3 other questions from one other report, asking the same along with 'What was the MOS name, when I specifically stated that she wasn't wearing a name badge so was unable to get a name! grrr!!
    What are RE doing at the moment!!!:mad:
