Yes!!
I'm missing a supermarket tech visit. Did it on the 13th June which is just about the cutoff. Wasn't on last month but doesnt appear to be there this month either.

I wasn't paid for a visit in June and I asked them and they told me they had problems with some expenses not going through on the website and I've been paid it this month.

Just had another follow-up call after a test-drive visit and used the 'my husband has just been made redundant line' to put them off. Scary thing is though, it's actually true this time .

We're in the process of getting him signed up to lots of MS companies. He actually has bags of experience in retail, in particular doing audits and merchandising. Do many of the companies on the first pages of these threads have work of this type? I know the 'company that cannot be named' does, and have seen something on RE about auditors, but if anyone could pm me and point me in the direction of any other companies, that would be really, really helpful

I noticed on the job centre plus job site a couple of days ago that the company who react do the checks for are recruiting for the merchandising jobs. Thought about applying and auditing my own work :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
I think I had a mail from GFK a couple of months ago about merchandising work but I didn't respond as it meant time away from home, might be worth contacting them if he is interested in merchandising.

I've been underpaid by tns this month - due to the delay of the payslips I don't know what for, but I'd say it equates to one coffee job not paid. Would be curious to know if anyone else is missing money.

Missing at least two car jobs. Really annoyed with them! Will wait for the pay slip so I can work out what else they've missed off as I think there's more...

A question to my fellow Suffolk ms'ers. Has anyone else got a greyed out fast food shop on Gap. Its for the place near the pet shop. Been greyed out for a while and I was wondering if this meant I couldn't shop it anymore.

I've just seen hotel visits on RE but the brief is a bit mysterious.... when you phone up to make a reservation, if they don't tell you about the 'changes that are going on' you have to 'say you have seen the recent TV adverts' and 'ask what it's all about'! Does anyone have a clue what this means? I haven't seen any TV ads and will feel a bit stupid bringing this up as I don't know what I'm asking, could be a bit awkward!

Have a look on the hotel website, it does explain the changes and I assume that's what the ad is about! I asked the q as stated in the notes and the MOS didn't have a clue what I meant! Then surprise I got a proofreading query on it!

Not me Pennies, I was sacked by Gap after a negative bookies report.
