    mimi1234, from what you keep posting latley it seems like your doing ms full time. You not work in hudds anymore?

    Is that why i have so many jobs at the mo lol

    Not at all hun. I'm based at Dews now. Only in Hudds once a month. I keep my eyes open and do a selection of visits for a selection of companies in one town. I think I'm a reliable shopper and I get to pick and choose what I want (unless it's the company that can't be named who give me nothing or REACT where the allocator does not give me anything because I score 10's most of the time!). I trampled over to York today and did visits I had never done before. I feel sorry for people that do it full time. I know I would have a breakdown. It's way too complex for my liking. I only did MS to pass some time to be honest, but it's taking over now.

    Ermmm, how do you release or cancel a job with Helion? Max... Hello!!! :)
    I've been assigned 2 visits that I didn't apply for! I'm sure it wasn't me just making a mistake as I was paying lots of attention to what I was applying for as I've called several of the branches last month so was making sure I only applied for ones I'd not done before already, so I'm sure I didn't accidently apply for a visit! Definitely not the 2 I've been assigned!!!

  • Grrr, my turn to moan.

    Why label parts of surveys as 'Optional' when you're only going to return them saying you want all parts filled in. Surely that's not 'Optional' at all, that's 'Required'! :mad:
  • Hi I am very new to this and I could not find an answer to my question - I am restricted to 2 assignments per month with Gyp. I joined at the end of October and can see lots of bonus jobs that I could do but am not allowed to accept. Does anyone know when I will be able to do more jobs than two a month? Thanks in advance :-)

    Tell me about it!!!!! Very annoyed.

    Plus, did a last min survey for them allocated monday night. Asked when i should submit as it said wed am but obviously that wouldn't be 48 hours for the email. She emailed this morning saying ok.

    Then i got a message saying survey returned. I never submitted the dam thing. Emailed her and she seemed like she had totally forgotton. Agreed to pass it back so i could finish it tonight as per the 48 hours and this hasn't been done.

    Going to ring in the morning cos i'm fed up of having my emails ignored by them lot. I don't even know if it gets passed back to the same person when you hit reply. The proof readers never answer.

  • Can't decide what to do? I have so many jobs postponed now, I don't know whether to just not take any new ones in case the snow is here for weeks. I remember last year I was unable to get out the car for over 2 weeks!!! One thing I do know is, my next car is going to be a 4x4 but even that wouldn't get through over 2 feet of snow! Getting stressed with it all now!

    I've been thinking like that too. It's starting to get a bit of a worry. Plus each company thinks their jobs are the most important ones, so it's hard to prioritise.

    On Mon and Tues next week I've got jobs that must be done those days as it's merchandising for a new video game release. If stuff gets pushed into next week, I'm going to have to tell companies they'll have to wait until Wed onwards :o
    Here I go again on my own....
