I repped for Olympic Holidays in 2004 and they really aren't as bad as people make out, even towards their staff.

I'm sure that at the beginning of the season when they're in training all reps are informed that should they wish to leave before the summer season ends then they will unfortunately have to make their own way back to the UK, which I think is fair enough.

I always had all the help and guidance I needed to succeed in what I was supposed doing and there was usually someone to talk to if I had a problem.

Reps wages are renowned for not being all that great but its a job that you do out of love not for money I think. Even so, if you work hard there are lots of cash incentives to achieve.

The training I endured before I started repping was very intense yet relevant for what I was about to embark on and I felt adequately prepared for my first season as a rep with Olympic Holidays.

I shan't be working for Olympic Holidays this year, simply because I would like to broaden my horizons with winter seasons as well as summers which I will be able to do with tour operators which aren’t specialists.

I would just like to end by saying that Olympic Holidays taught me a lot, I made some great friends and I thoroughly enjoyed my time working for them.

Me and Claire (Olympic reps) had some wicked nights in here after we'd trawled through nearly every bar in Ipsos (well, it would have been rude not to!). Don't remember most of them but they're usually the best! Hi to everyone X

Hiya, Michelle here (Olympic rep no.2), just to back up what Claire said really, you were all great.

You'll probably get the pleasure of Claire's company next year but think I'm gonna head elsewhere.
