    I've been Money Tipped!
    Bored bored bored.

    Have done 4 reports, have 3 more still to go.

    How on earth do you guys that actually make a full time wage out of this job keep yourselves motivated to do 5+ reports in the same day and keep taking on days where you have 5+ jobs? Besides the money obviously...
    Who made hogs and dogs and frogs?
  • Some bugg*r has taken every single Gap job in Dundee, and I can't do the corner shops in Fife cos I did them last time round! GRRRRR
  • Seeing the Gap patrol jobs on alert thread reminds me .... they rang me up begging me to do 2 coffee jobs (on a day I aloready had 2 React coffee jobs booked!!) and threw in 2 petrol jobs as a bribe. I accepted, did the jobs, drank the React coffee, chucked the Gap slush .....

    2 days later I got 2 emails "We no longer require you to do the petrol jobs" ........... what bar stewards eh?!!!

    They did the same with me on one job. Next time they called, desperate for a burger to be done, I complained. They actually apologised, gave me another petrol and 4 corner shops. Worth a try perhaps?
  • Think i have competition close. Somebody has whipped all the esa jobs near me. Very odd since they normally aren't touched.

    God job i didn't really want them lol
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    Not necessarily. I can't see any in my area. They usually come on a few days after the first ones so your area might be the same.

    There are loads in my area. But there are 4 (3 shops and 1 petrol) thats within 3 miles of my house. Those are the only ones missing.

    Can someone give me some advice about ESA (is it ok to name them?). I applied for two assignments, specifying tomorrow as the date - and they are showing tomorrow as the 'due by date' in my inbox. However, on the info suummary, another date is specified for the visit- I don't know what to do...
    Has anyone else had this? (I'm new to all this, if you hadn't guessed!)

    They give you a premium fee if they are desperate for work to be done by the deadline.

    I see, thanks.

    And how long will I be restricted to only 2 assignments per month?
