Waiting In

just seen a news clip on the bbc about peeps getting paid to wait in for deliveries. one woman claims she paid £60 for this service. the journo mentioned a company called waiting in limited but google failed to bring up a result for this.

anyone had any experience of this...perhaps in london or posh parts of the country.

sounds like my kind of job :D

  • No info, but funnily enough I'm currently waiting in for a delivery. :) Got the ever so helpful delivery 'window' (more like delivery chasm) of 8am - 6pm. Sigh.

    That's because google is only interested in showing sites that sell things. At least that's all it shows me these days!

    A bing search led me to this site
