Do Bare let you know if you've not been allocated jobs you've applied for?
I've got some applications (computer stores) that have been sitting there for some time, and they're still on the job board - seems a bit odd as I think the first day you could shop them was today.
Is this normal for Bare? It's the first time something's come up near enough for me to apply.

They usually disappear from the job board if they've been allocated or if they have enough applications to chose someone but don't always disappear from the my applications section once allocated...

Bare's reasoning for this is should whoever is allocated it not bother doing it or be unable to complete for whatever reason they can see who else was interested and dish it out again... Personally I prefer the way React use sassie as at least you know where you stand well in advance of the fieldwork period....

I have discovered that I was not given user name and password for an assignment that I have done today - they sent a telephone report rather than web entry and no information included. I can't enter the info before the 8 hour deadline - only my 2nd visit as newbie so didn't realise - suppose they will refuse to pay me - have sent an email and left a voicemail - not happy!! And it was a good customer experience and want them to know that.
Fed up now - have the information for the other 2 - Oh well lesson for the future

Would be nice to get some I don't have to slot in around other work for a change as I've only done one of the ones on my doorstep...

mine is still sat there. i've only done one job and they didn't allocate till last min.

Today was first shop day and if they leave it till late then i'm not going to be able to do it. Stupid really.

Thanks, I was thinking they'd do it the same as React and getting a little paranoid that I'd done something wrong. It does seem an odd way round to do it... Surely the system records somewhere who else applied for the jobs?

Exactly I like dictaphone jobs but there's no way I'm getting wired up just to do a burger... Same for video, if gyp did video it would be totally not worth it...

Perhaps since they check them all on the CCTV anyway we could do away with the timing and receipt requirement for a month just to see how they compare to the normal obvious MS's... Didn't get chance to say that though thanks to Ms Gobby...

I am now the proud owner of an iPhone, but am yet to get to grips with the Simplenote application. How do you get briefing notes and questionnaires onto the phone for when you're out and about? I've signed in with Simplenote by the way, and know it does work because I typed some jobs I need to do at home on my phone and it synced automatically with SN.

Sorry to be dim, but I'm a bit of a numpty with techology - some might call me a technophobe . Could someone who does know PM me please? Simple instructions would be much appreciated!

Many thanks.

Can anyone help me please?

Is anybody else having problems with music surveys? Can not get onto the site.

i did one at 6pm and it was ok, just tried now and i can get on.

there were problems on sat- could not get on and then when i did and placed order, it then said there was a problem and my order had been cancelled.

as i actually placed an order i issued an error report. if you cant even get on the site i think you need to use the abort survey button but not sure :undecided



wonder if ms gobby is from on here? :rotfl:

I do have an iPhone but haven't used simplenote but I'm guessing you can maybe create a new note on the PC side of it and paste your questionnaire and guidelines and then it will sync with the phone?

Not 100% sure but this seems feasible?

Hope this helps
