The Mystery Shopping thread - part 5

tigergold is right - the end of the month in the month after you did the job. so august is end of sept. and if you do one on 1st sept you'll be waiting til the end of october. I prefer to do jobs at the end of a month for them! (if ever!)

Wow goodness. i thought it was that, but wanted to check. Oh well, will be a nice surprise in September!

For some reason i've only got burger jobs on Gap right now. Usually they release chicken and pizza jobs at the same time, because i normally have a few pages of jobs to choose from.
Has anyone else only got burger jobs showing, or are they having a special strop with me?! :rotfl:

RoxyK

I haven't got anything new at all with Gap showing as I'm a veggie, so it's not just you

And so sorry to hear your news Becles.

I have not seen any new jobs on RE that are on the alert thread I hope Gap get some good ones posted on tonight (or is that just wishful thinking LOL)

RoxyK

Me neither! And on each alert I keep looking. Fed up with it now

Ellie was so right in an earlier post - we need to just to the jobs that suit us It's when you're a newbie though that you try each job - but you soon learn!

Am I reading this correctly??? Ellie, you don't actually eat the stuff yourself??? :rotfl: In that case, why should it matter that I'm a vegetarian? I got rejected for 2 companies on Gap last night, and I reckon it was because I said yes to that question. I do have a family who would be glad to polish off anything I didn't personally want to eat, but I could still MS the service etc.

I have the first bite to see if the bread is fresh, tasks good etc but then I pass it on. DH doesn't mind having a piece missing lol I usually taste whatever I'm giving DD first anyway to make sure it's not to hot for example.

I'm assuming you are getting SMP from your "almost full time" employer.

Had to cancel my work for the day. Had a phone call to say my Gran passed away during the night, so my Mam (babysitter) has gone over there. She had altzeimers and was in a sheltered accomodation flat but was found in one of the communal sitting rooms. I'm guessing it was the room upstairs that overlooked a park and was full of books. She loved reading and often sat in there.

Police and the coroner as there has to be an inquest even though there are no suspicious circumstances, and Social Services are there as they were involved as her altzeimers was getting worse and she kept going missing and stuff.

I'm going to miss her

Oh hun I am so sorry to hear your news. My thoughts are with you and your family at this awful time.

Thank you ever so much for posting about my work as well - much appreciated. I'm not claiming MA as I can claim SMP from work so as long as I know I'll be OK - I'm happy.

Take care xx

Can I just ask a question about ABAi? I'm registered with them now, but whenever an alert comes up on the other thread, nothing is showing on my login! How do you check for jobs as I've only got 1 shop showing and there's no jobs for them.

Sorry to hear about your loss Becles, thinking of you and your family x
