Yeah the weather does look a bit carp tbh. It's all inside for the day really anyway so it won't affect us too much; just the bit between the church and the reception we'll have to be careful with....

I'm at work so I have to lurk; how will I be ready to MS again when I'm back?! I need to keep up with the gossip

I'm off to South Africa for the honeymoon so that'll be nice and relaxing. Better still, there are no mystery shops there so I won't be tempted!

You lucky little devil hope that you have a good day and that it doesn't rain and have a great honeymoon and don't be off MSing when you are at the airport.

Is it just me or are TNS getting even worse with new visits? I recently got an email from RE, and I think they might have knicked the Pizza Shop TNS do as they were asking if I ate at that restaurant. *** Also, I don't know if this is bulli$h, hopefully someone can clear this up. Do TNS have a scheme where if you complete more than 25 or 30 successful visits, they put you on a special list so you can do hotels for them too? I'm not too sure if this is true. My Regional Controller mentioned it to me once, and I went mental and did almost every visit possible. I have now done about 40+ visits for them, but have not come across any hotels yet. Might my Regional Controller have been talking out of her butt to get me to do lots of visits? I have asked her about this a few times, but she seems to never answer it. *** Re: the RE message about train station visits. These went on a week ago in Leeds, and I picked the whole lot up. Doing all my cafe/lunch visits at the train station tomorrow. Ooooh lucky me.

Any minute now...

I reckon it might be tomorrow now, they usually start about 4pm, so we might have to wait another day....

Would love to be proved wrong, tho!

Are there any mystery shopper companies that do the tax for you and you don't have to figure it out yourself?

Practically none left that do, unfortunately.

Hmm, just got a call from RM to do a clothing shop. I seem to go for ages with them with no calls, and then suddenly get a few within a short space of time. Anyone else find this with RM?

I find that with RM. I can go for a couple of weeks with nothing and then I get two or three phone calls in a week.

How did you manage to get the whole lot mimi? I only managed to get one train coffee job in your area and that was all they'd allow me to have before dissapearing! I'll keep an eye out for you tomorrow!

Could anyone please tell me about Aba . I have had an email saying they are now recruiting in my area. They want to do a telephone interview, then some test assessments, then a meeting! :eek:

Lot different to anybody else I'm with.
Would be grateful to know what they do and for which companies.
Thanks in anticipation.

Oh heck! I can't pass a GFK test for a call I have tomorrow where I have to ask for a leaflet.......I've never failed a test before and am baffled as to whats wrong! Anyone else done this one that is less dim than me & could pm me???

Ok enough is enough, I am trying to do weightwatchers but can't resist the meals out, but I have now put on 1.5lb and I need to stop eating fatty meals out :rolleyes: so I need some strength to not accept meals out to my fave restaurants, I don't do burgers or chicken anyway and not fussed about doing more pizza (unless its from TNS ) but RE will be my downfall, I think I need to eat like a rabbit just in case any jobs come up :rotfl:

Still waiting for the GAP jobs.....

At least you're still keeping an eye on your weight, princess, I simply can't bear to look!:o
