    I wouldn't see why not.
    The questions to get the job (I'm thinking of RE and Gap) do ask whether you have any relationship with anyone who works for the company or have worked there yourself etc, which he could answer honestly for the chicken, burger petrol ones etc that he hasn't/didn't

    Thanks and no he doesn't. Just thinking that he could do them on his way to or from work, he is so precise with timings as well.

    Yeh of course he can! There are more non-supermarket jobs than supermarket ones and as long as he's honest about his connections and interests then there is no reason not to.

    My cousin works in the burger place, officially that means that I can't shop them. However he works in another country over an hour away from me, I'd never even dream of MSing his place of work, but it certainly doesn't affect how I see my local ones.

    I have a large family so if I started to take into account where everyone works I'd never get any work.

    Quick question: would my husband be eligiable to do MS? he is a supermarket manager you see and I would assume that he wouldn't be "allowed" to do supermarkets but would he be able to do food places, so chicken and burger jobs?


    Both you and him would be not allowed to do supermarket visits for said company, and you would not be able to do some jobs where it asks if you work or know someone who works for X comapny.

    BUt you can do jobs for GAP.

    I guess so. I have known people that work for the burger place in the past.
    I can't refer him for some reason but will get him to apply.

  • Anyone with TMDC know if they offer assignments in NI (Belfast area)? Signed up a few days ago and when picking "my area" in my profile noticed it doesn't give any options for NI towns. Don't want to be wasting my time checking the site all the time if there aren't going to be any jobs.

    Thanks

    Not gonna alert this as I will get my bum smacked again and it does say on that guy's post yesterday that alerts should not be repeated the day after, BUT lots of new things (mainly in Scotland) have gone on the secret eating company, mainly eating places. Go get them if you can self allocate.
