I can see the hotels but you need to have a business email for them.

Edit: JenBR you beat me to it!

Do people find the hotel assignments worth doing in general?

Thanks for the reply both of you. I have a business email address but obviously it isn't being recognised .

I've done a couple of the non business ones and I would say that they're only worth doing if you fancy a treat and can tie them in with something else you're doing, as they're only reimbursement and no fee. For instance, I had theatre tickets booked in London and was going to travel there and back in a day, but when I accepted the hotel job I made a weekend of it.

I have an approved business email but I can't see any of them either. When I spoke to Robert the other week though, he said that it's because I'm under 25 and that he can allocate them to me directly over the phone. Might be worth ringing him if you're interested in any?

I see the business ones occasionally, yet don't have a business email.

I've done a couple of these, as they tied in with other jobs, so were worth it for me.

It seems a bit hit & miss as to whether I see them or not ....................can go for months and just see all the others they do, then suddenly the business ones will be there too.......strange...............:D

Welcome Gabs!

Nice to see someone else from Glasgow too! Where are you?

We did indeed get together for a coffee, so I'm sure you'll be a very welcome addition to our "clan"....................and I want to know more about your modelling exploits - I'm sure you'll have a few tales to tell!

I did some many years ago - nothing on your scale though - so I'm always interested in anything about it.

One of the MS companies were looking for people with language skills a while ago - it was telephone work. I enquired for my daughter, who speaks several languages, but she was too young at 18.

I'll PM you the details anyway, in case it's of any interest to you.

Snap. I have it bookmarked and check at least once a week

Where are you based? It took me a while before I got accepted as my area is closed most of the time but once you are in you are in. I have noticed different locations coming up from time to time so keep an eye out.

Agh Ive given up on RE profile! I can't see anything and I know there is loads of jobs as I spoke to them this morning frustration!

I'm not seeing anything either Jen. The pharmacies and two retail jobs, Falkirk and Alnwick. Too long a journey for them.

My rejected petrol job was in Peebles so you may see it come up again for a revisit. No idea what's going on there. To make it worse I was at Jed this morning. The site was closed. Not been a good month for me. More problems and queries than the rest of the year put together. Got nothing booked next week and happy to have the break.

RE have some easy Gatwick jobs at the moment, details are on the website or call and ask for Fran or Kelly.

One for each day -thanks for the tip-I had seen this and promptly forgotten about it. I think because they said July -and I'm flying just into August. A bit different to the food jobs too

Thanks

Oh Crud I wish I had of known you were going to Jed!! I could have told you Drove by there last night!! -- Im doing berwick today but the one I got rejected was Selkirk, but I have argued it and she said she doesn't see why it wasn't paid out!

Strange with Peebles I have a few issues with Peebles as a whole. All though the golf course is nice. but assignment wise its the worst most queries.
