    With React cinemas, I'm a bit worried that the film we're going to see might be full, there are only a few films on at the one I am seeing and the others are ones I really don't fancy, Mother in law has agreed to have DS overnight for the first time ever so I really want a lovely night out with DH.
  • What are people making of Retail Maxim? Gosh, they are giving me jobs on a daily basis. Result or what! Woohoo.[/QUOTE]

    I have worked for them for years and they are fab. However, they have dropped their fees, they used to add on parking and mileage for all jobs. Ah..the good old days!

    Unless you live close to a city centre you won't get much work as all their work is High St stores and they allocate according to your home postcode. Good for you Mimi getting so much from them, easy work!

    I'm enjoying Mary Portas tonight - all about phone shops.

    Sent my details to OB Services and I've just received an a reply asking for me to send a photo and a signed Disclaimer.

    I know I've got my photo on Helion's page but I trust Helion and I don't know much about OBS...tet. Anyone actually completed an assignment for them?
    I got the same reply and I've sent the photo as I don't see what harm it could do. They're not asking for bank details on the Disclaimer so I'm happy to send that back as well. I'd like to know if anyone's worked for them though, the same as you.

    I also got my first assignment with them today. And seems really simple. Having a very busy week. Already done four assignments done this week and got another seven booked for rest week and seven for following week. After a quiet January, February becoming busy. hopefully this will keep up.

    That's a little unfair on the agent then, as you're then unable to score them for asking whether you needed car parking and/or an airport hotel.

    If you go back and read my post, you'll find I said "if the brief allows..." I'm not as stupid as you think to penalise assistants by giving them duff information. Not all scenarios ask about extras like car parking and airport hotels.

    How annoying was H? I'm sure I'm not the only one who felt like smacking a phone off his head :o

    All this talk about retail maxim. I registered with them in March. Not heard a bean. I live 4 miles away from the city centre, in a city of 300,000 people. Why no jobs in planet Byl?

    Try giving them a call? I got visits straight away. Mind you, most o the stuff I do are men only visits. I guess they don't have many male shoppers where I am. Don't know if they gave travel reimbursemets on all visits as someone pointed out, I know they do on some. But seriously, their reports are a doddle compared to RE.
