Not done one for GR but did a similiar assignment for RE. My best shop ever. (how often can you say that about RE). The RE report was very straightforward.

Just accepted my first assignment for GR - only ever done some for RE before - it's a big supermarket home delivery. I don't even have to leave the house and will get my shopping for free! Anyone else done this? It seems a bit too good to be true - I bet the report takes about 2 hrs to fill in ....!!

Don't worry about GR they are one of the better companies but unfortunately for me their jobs don't come round very often and the ones that do I have to fight some other local MSer for.

From memory, their reports do require lots of comments, but I recommend that you give these lots of thought, GR is no RE:rotfl:

Hi I did a Bare jewellery job last week where you had to make a purchase (not the phone call one). Today for the first time I was allowed to self assign and I saw another one for the same jewellery company but when I clicked on it, it said only 1 allowed per round. I was not quite sure what a round was so I clicked the box to self assign, thinking that if I was not allowed it would not give it to me. It did give me it but dont want to find out later that I wont get paid. What do you think?

i would send tem an email and check as you dont want to risk not being paid! i self assigned two calls (didnt see the bit that said only allowed one!) so i emailed and they said it was ok. that was calls though so best to check!

You can phone them apparently and ask them to add more clients, or you can do what I did, although it was quite tedious, go back to the first page, post 2 I think, there's a link, click it and sign up to each of the links individually, takes a while and they wont show up til tomorrow.

Sorry, have I been missing something with abai?

On the first page all I have is payment information and a logo on the right hand side which I'm meant to click to search for jobs (I've searched everyday since I joined and assumed it was just bad luck..)

Adding clients
If you only have one client showing when you login, call Aba-i and ask if they can add on any more clients. They should be able to add two more particular clients without any problems.
