So I am new to all this, can someone explain why I can't assign any jobs with GAP. I did one last Friday my first and now says there is a limit of 0 per day please try again tomorrow, is it to do with me being new or do you think I am being locked out!!?!?
Thanks in advance

I've not had this happen, but a few other people have I *think* it turned out to be a system error, but I'm sure someone who has a better memory than me can tell you.

I just applied for a job for ESA and it was allocated straight away. Does this mean I can self allocate now? Shame about the pay cuts though...:o

I think there is a limit as to how many assisgnments you can do when you are new!

Hi. If anyone has done one of these and can let me know how to decipher the store/receipt code, I would be very grateful for a pm! Can't work it out from the shopper instructions/survey

I've just got back from one of these. My receipt shows a number like:

1111 22 3333 44

I can tell that 1111 is the store code. I can only assume that 22 or 44 is the till number. My guess would be that 22 is the till number and that 44 is the operator code. That would leave 3333 as the receipt number.

Unless someone in the know comes on here and tells us otherwise, I think I will muddle through with my guess.

Typical: just got the email from ESA saying I can self-assign... the day I after I applied for five egg jobs (facing the wrath by saying this ) and somebody else snapped them. Damn.

I guessed the store number bit, but the rest ain't clear. I rang them up to ask in the end - the guy didn't know and acknowledged the shopper instructions were confusing. And apparently this question has come up quite a few times, but he couldn't remember the answer. He said he would ring back, but didn't bother. So I rang again just before 5.30 pm and spoke to someone a bit huffy who didn't really know what was classed as the receipt number, but suggested I put all the numbers after the store number.

Very impressed with their knowledge and helpfulness :undecided
