I don't work there but I have read the entire thread :eek:

The times everyone's been getting are the same each week, so if you have sat&sun you'll be doing that every week. Days off are next to each other as well so if you've got thu-mon then you'll always get tues and weds as your weekend.

Good luck, when did you first apply?

Thanks for that. I first applied in April, it all went pretty fast tbh. But I had to turn down 2 starting dates as they clashed with other work committments, so I didn't get into training until 2 weeks ago. Training has been fine, just a little bit tiring sometimes. Particularly the night I fell asleep for a few minutes whilst our trainer was talking on the phone - I had such a headache and took 2 painkillers

I was misled however, my recruiter never made it clear to me that I would have to work EVERY weekend. She just has always said "the job entails weekend work". Doh!!

I have an interview tomorrow. :T

Has anyone else had issues with the software check? I got an error message:

You must have a local router between you and the internet to run the Workbooth Software. It seems that your IP Address (/*********) is a direct connection to the internet. Either disable this connection, or place a router between it and the Internet


Im on AOL & recently moved..... we connect via a moden supplied by AOL - so why would I need a router? (sorry not too clued up on this side of PC things!) Im more design minded etc. :huh:

Any interview advice would be helpful as well! Nervous!!

This normally means your using a modem rather than a router,
what exactly is the make and model of the modem from aol.

USAgirluk

It is a BT Voyger 190 ADSL

Badtimes

You will need to replace that with a adsl router

USAgirluk

Oh deep joy! lol

Any one better than the next? Any particular spec's etc?

Thanks for all of your advice :T

Any ADSL router should do, stick with a brand such as netgear or Lnksys and you should be fine. Don't have to spend a lot on a router these days as the prices are a lot lower than they used to be.

snranj- I'm starting on the 7th July too! I'm having the same problem regarding the router as well. I'm with virgin media and using the modem they've given to me. Would anyone know what I need to buy?



Thanks
