    Talking of ESA has anyone been allocated any of the high end perfume/make up jobs? I applied for 3, to be done last week between Monday and Friday. Still sitting in my Applications file only now the completion date has been changed to the 10th. Are they ever going to allocate them?!!!

    Never had any of those, but I am a bloke, does it make a difference?

    They keep ringing me up asking me to do deceased residences, I'm going to get a bad reputation if I keep visiting those kind of establishments!

    That happened to me and I got them to do a handwritten one. It was for MF and it was fine. [I did get a very strange look asking for it though because it was for a £1 cup of coffee!]

    Oh my days! RE/MF just made me laugh out loud. I said "the mos had her hair worn up". I got asked by proofreaders "what the length of her hair was"? What? Are we expected to unravel their hair and ascertain how long it is?

    I'm imagining the proofreaders all locked up in a room with Mel of Team Mel walking about with a taser/baseball bat in her hand. I bet she tasers them/bashers them over the head with the bat if they don't query every single report. Hehehehe.

    I got one the other day where the question said "Did the MoS ask X?", I clicked 'No', but it still required 10 characters so I put "No, the MoS did not ask X". I then got a ticket saying "Please clarify, did the MoS ask X?"

    !!!!!! are these people on? :rotfl:

    Apologies if this is a totally stupid question. You all seem very experienced and I am new to M.S

    I've just signed up with gfk and there are two XXXX jobs paying £XX each. Is this normal? It seems quite high compared with the fee's I usually get. As far as I can see no purchase of contract is necessary. Are they always this high? And, can I do both as they are separate branches but the same campaign?
