    What I don't get is if some of the shoppers on here, like yourself, are really busy all day, then how on earth do you manage to FFF? In the middle of an assignment? Huh? I don't get it. If I do a couple of hours of MSing I'm sure to miss all the best jobs on the alerts thread as I cant get to them quick enough. When I'm working I have to wait until I've finished the current assignment before I can log onto my smartphone and apply, then theyre all gone. Ramble ramble ramble.....sorry.

    I guess I am a bit OCD and constantly check my iphone also most assignments take 15-30 mins so not a long time to wait. I also do this full time so it's in my interest to make sure I cover every day that I can so spend a lot of time searching for work especially the regular stuff.

    I got paid sometime late morning/early afternoon. Always forget how Gap pay appears during the day and get a pleasant surprise.

    Wherever I go, my laptop follows! I really could do with a posh phone like an iPhone or what have you. What do people recommend? I'm tempted to get one of everything but I know that's not ideal! LOL. Android? Windows? Apple? Eeeek. Help. Also, just out of interest, if I were to get a new mobile, would I be able to claim anything as an expense or is that wishful thinking?

    Get an iPad claim the lot as an expense. I did and have never regretted it.

    I've got sweet FA for Feb as I always get beaten to it. :(

    Same here. I've hardly got anything at the moment which is a bit of a worry.
    Here I go again on my own....

    I dont understand how people are not that busy next month, ESA alone have uploaded over 3500 jobs in the last couple of days and from what I can see there is a lot still left.
