It's a bit of a strange one. Usually when a job is greyed out, it means the timeframe to do it has passed but Gap don't normally take so long in providing some new shop dates.

It is strange, and a little bit annoying since I only live about a minute away from it. Isn't there some clause or other that means that theres a certain quota of shops for a site a year? Maybe the 'year' starts on a funny month and that particular shop has reached it's quota. I don't know.

A question for anyone who's done a young persons hotel. Are the dorms completely open or relatively private? i.e. will I be able to potter about on my laptop or read well into the night without disturbing anyone?

Anyone else just received an email from TNS regarding the website problems yesterday - and showing lots of other people's email addresses?

How do you know which specific jobs you've been paid for?

Because I only did 2 jobs for them in June, and the amount I was expecting for them is exactly the amount I got paid!!

Yes, did receive it ... but have deleted it so can't check the email thing.

Ah I see. I'm waiting for money for work from both June and July so less easy for me to know where stuff's got to.

The only time i've done a RE young persons hotel the notes instructed me to book a private room so can't say in regards to the job, but I have stayed in a few of them in the past and the dorms are quite open plan, sorry.

Yes, the notes still say that now, but if there are none available you have to accept a bigger room if offered, and with it being the school holidays all the private rooms have gone

Just completed a mystery shop for a well known pizza chain (with GAP). It's a last minute job so GAP offered to put an extra £4.00 in my account.

Just ordered it all and it came to £18.00 but everything I ordered (1 pizza and 2 sides) was in a deal for £12.99 so he dropped the price to that. I could hardly say 'no give it me for £18.00' but worried that GAP won't process my report if I had a deal! This happened to anyone before?

Thanks,

Jensmile

is "Global Ltd" TNS? it doesnt seem to add up to the amount i was expecting but from reading back, some people havent got what they expected either!
also thought there was millions of jobs on RE to find that theyre all for airports abroad! oh well
