hah could have told you that I did a underground attraction for them and after describing EACH section "sword swang from left to right blah blaah" i was knackered. there were 6-7 points of interest that needed full write ups...

i felt sick after it.

Yeah, exactly. It was as bad as the RE reports for pointless comments. I copied and pasted all my comments into a Word file as usual and the word count came to 2,128 even though I was pretty brief on a lot of them! And for most of them, a simple tickbox really would have been sufficient. *sighs*

I had a REACT competitor day out which was alright as it was small. The questionnaire printed out was confusing though and I was so glad I hadn't gone to the normal place!

Assosia money in today for the June photos

abai franchise visits for a posh supermarket,mainly to motorway places.

Is the reimbursement seperate to the fee or does the spend come out of the fee?

No reimbursement, spend comes out of the quoted fee.

No it's out of your fee (or at least it always has been in the past!)

Blimey. Remind me never to do an attraction for React again. Took me 2 1/4 hours to sort the photos and do the report, and that's after a really long day out in London! (Had to finish it this morning 'cos I was too exhausted last night.) Really, really not worth it for the fee. I'd rather just pay full whack at the attraction in the future!

I did the attraction built of small bricks near Windsor recently and although I was only assessing the food and shopping outlets, it was a lot of work (and eating!). I almost lost the will to live inputting 9 reports after a long day out.

anyone doing the 50 suopermarket products and got a list they have done before i am sure i have

I do 12 lists on a Monday and on a Wednesday, the last couple of weeks I've had virtually the same lists every time, makes it so much easier and quicker 'cos I know where everything is and I can play "avoid the security guard" by nipping off to a different section and coming back!

I love these jobs!! Some of the motorway service places are really tiny and the reports are really easy. And you get that lovely food as well. I did one on Sunday and am doing another 3 of them tomorrow, would have done more but they really only allow you to do 3 but I was given a 4th 'cos I'm a good little girl!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Oh, and if you're lucky enough to get the petrol station visit at the same place, you're laughing!!!! :T:T:T

Yeah, absolutely agree - I did a theme park, had a great day out but the write up was pretty much the most arduous one I have ever done, it took hours.
