    Babes, I will probably have to drop them all. Shall I pm you before I do?

    That would be very nice of you :)

    I had my week meticulously planned and turned down other work to be able to do these but the new dates hardly suit at all so I'll need to give most of the jobs up :(

    Just a quickie...does anyone know offhand what React's mileage allowance is per mile? Got a job this afternoon and I can't find it anywhere (wood for the trees maybe?)

    Some of them don't do mileage - the very first React one I did didn't (was a lingerie shop)

    Thanks for the replies...this one just states Mileage up to £6.80 but doesn't state anywhere (that I can see) a per mile amount.

    I'm off out to do it anyway so shall try to figure something out when I'm doing the report!

    Oh, I'll have to drop some of the phone jobs as well so if anyone's in the SE and wants to pick them up just PM me and I'll let you know what/when I'm releasing!

    Think the maximum is 40 miles which would be 17p at maximum of £6.80

    People in the Glasgow area think RM have a few visits that need done this week, I phoned in asking about next week but they said they all needed done this week. Wish I didn't have this essay to do haha.

    Also have RE got (if my clue isn't obvious let me know) the bright money cafes/coffee places as a client now? Just saw one within a hospital listed.

    I've always claimed 17p without problems. This tends to be the standard rate for them these days.

    When I complained tns about cancelling my jobs and that I had scheduled them in turning down order work I was basically told tough, we have given enough notice . Everyone should drop them last minute to teach them a lesson.

    Shame I stick out like a sore thumb in fashion shops, I doubt some of them would expect a 6'5" hairy bloke asking questions.

    No this is a franchise in a hospital, same company who have station jobs.
