re I am getting annoyed that i can't see the RE hotel calls despite being set up for business I do the hotels for them already and I just find it annoying that is my 12:42am rant lol

How odd- there were 8 when I looked last night, and I took one before they all disappeared in one go like they did the other night :cool: I find the allocation of those jobs very odd though, the way they appear about 12.15 on several nights...

Think becles may have mis-typed, but just to clarify that if you have a small earnings certificate you DON'T pay any class 2 contributions - that's the whole point of it

Anyway, even if you have had a small earnings certificate, you can still back pay your class 2 contributions to cover 26 weeks in the test period and you will then be entitled to the full £125. Mad, I know, but the loophole exists. I couldn't quite believe it myself when I was informed by the lovely man at the DWP - seems way too good to be true! Especially when you don't even have to be earning anywhere near £125 a week at the time!

Didn't post this all first time round as didn't want to bore too many people - but maybe it will help some others!

Might be worth having that third child after all! LOL.

I think RE's proof readers are on strike. I did a couple of jobs last Saturday, and they're still in my pending box...

I remember a while ago there was a discussion about signing into supermarkets for the crisp photos but I can not remember if the answer to this was discussed.

I have got a “regular” (I hope) two shops to do, one of which the sign in book is at the security desk at the front of the store but the other one the sign in book is in the admin office “through the back” of the store. The last (and first) time I did this store I asked at the cigarette counter/customer services desk and someone took me to sign in and told me just to go back and sign out myself when I am finished. What I am wondering is now I know where the admin office is can I just go through myself to sign in or should I ask at the desk again. The last time I did it was in the evening and there was no one in the admin office whereas this time I would expect someone to be there as it will be at lunchtime.

If the store has a visitors entrance (usually down the side or the back of the outside of the store) I would go there and press the buzzer. Otherwise I would go to the CS desk. Obviously I don't know the layout of your store but they're usually not too keen on people wandering about in the back office unless someones told them to
