Sorry - I thought I had quoted - obviously not! The job centre vacancy thing. Apparently it's been advertised wrong and shouldn't actually be a vacancy.

I knew what you were referring to, I'm just confused as to how you found out so quick

Not fleece but a react state building.

If meant to be work placement still slavery imo same as poundland ones. Stacking shelves at night should be a paid job and is of no benefit to anyone but tesco.

I just had a question about the TNS sassie phone shops. I have done the project quiz and it has been received but when does the actual report questionnaire appear? I planned on doing some today but I think that might have to be rearranged.

Ahh... One of the other forums I am on, one of the regulars on there works for the Job Centre and apparently an internal memo went round about it

It's to do with the SBWA (Sector Based Work Academies) from what it's been explained to me it's Jsa + Expenses during the training leading to a guaranteed interview. That isn't the wage that Tesco would pay to the successful applicant.

Didn't realise react had them, but I don't get much with react so that might be why.

I totally agree re the work placement stuff though, its not really acceptable in this day and age.

You should have had an email with rhe questionnaire - it's a word document that you have to annotate and email back. When I did ones in November I was told to attach anythung into the sassie one - ue picture of phone etc. Doing the questionnaires is a bit of a pain but the pay is OK.

Anyone going to sign up for an accompanied visit? I am not lol - I can't imagine that would get organised smoothly by TNS tbh!

I started this one off and I just laughed out loud when I read you saying it. My bad, the poor person at TNS probably is not computer literate. Oooops.

Thanks for all the tips re: internet people, I am definitely going to give them a call. I just hope they don't do what Orange did when I said I was leaving their phone network. They more or less just said "OK, bye!"

Mimi, are you on o2 LLU? If so and decide to leave take a look at plusnet (as your options are often limited as you can't easily move from one LLU provider to another, and the usual option would be to move back to bt)

Thanks for that Dazza.

General question to anyone doing TNS phones. If anyone has been on the briefing they might be able to help maybe? Are we expected to do the Word document questionnaire AS WELL as doing the SASSIE report? It says we need to upload a document too? If so, I might end up dropping mine. Far too much kerfuffle for the fee!
