I've a few quick questions, please don't bite my head off. If I come across really thick, just ignore me.

GLASSES - TERN : Has anyone sent theirs back yet? Will it be safe to send sunglasses in a cloth pouch in a bubble wrap envelope? Just thought I would ask first if anyone else has experienced this before and may help others who have done this kinda visit. Otherwise I will contact TERN tomorrow and ask them.

PHONE CALL - REACT : Tried doing it about 10 times today, the call kept getting cut. Anyone else had this problem? I'm going to have to ask for it to be de-allocated as I can't do it tomorrow.

I would think the glasses will be fine like that - the jiffy bags that Tern send out are fairly small so glasses don't get much of a chance to move about inside. In terms of being crushed, I suppose that's a risk you take - you're only following instructions...

I called react at 5 today and told them to take the phone calls I had back. Normally I don't have problems with them, but all I've had is the engaged tone every time. As I told the person, I horribly busy tomorrow and can't do them then, and there are only so many times I'm prepared to redial in a day for the measly fee.

Did a Gap coffee job today and noticed the price has gone up by 5p.

Has anyone else noticed this? I'm going to email Gap and ask them to increase the reimbursement.

I've got another test for Bare (although the fee has dropped almost a 1/3 since last month :eek:), it's telling me I need to fill in the candidate information, but I can't remember what I did last time. Is it just 5 of the first 7 questions on the questionnaire that you fill in and save? Or am I completely missing something?
