    hi, hopefully someone can help me, gfk have a number of bank type jobs, i have done one for them, but there are a number in other towns for the same bank, i have asked gfk via email but not had a reply re whether i can do ther others and still get paid...

    For the current bank jobs you can do four AFAIK; check under restrictions in the briefing notes. I did four in one morning last week and have done two of their competitors in the past week as well (different job code, so am allowed two more as well).

    I have a coffee shop visit for this week, and there are a couple of questions that go something like this "what in your opinion could have been done differently to improve the service/coffee shop etc"
    I've had this before and struggled to come up with any ideas, I was wondering if anyone had any?
    (I'm trying to be more prepared this time!)
    TIA

    That's really up to you; have you ever had such perfect service where nothing could be improved? For subjective questions like this I just tend to pick on anything I've marked negatively in the report.

    Have another look. It vaguely says at the ned of a year you'll get paid for referrals but doesn't say how much.

    Someone (sorry pregnancy brain!!) said that they had done one so I thought I'd better be more organised. Did one with Date, Organisation, Site, Amount, Mileage, Profit and Paid columns and I can mark them off when I get paid. It should also come in handy for the tax man next year!!

    I joined BARE last week - any idea how long it take them to get back to you? Also joined Optimum Contact and ISC but no assignments from them yet. Going to have a look at the list and join a few more as well. Any suggestions as to which ones?

    I have also forgotten to look left and right a few times - I googled the address +/- 1 or 2 numbers to find out what was next door.

    Pizza dine in jobs are fairly straightforward.
