Morning all

The 'phone' jobs on RE last night .. does anyone know what they were ? I was busy taking a 'game' pizza job and wanted to have a look at the other jobs (which probably would have suited me better....) but they had all gone in a flash . I guess really I am just being nosey ... !

They were phone calls to the "rural-soundind organisation".

1) Smiles all round
2) Car park clean
3) Toilets clean
4) Hand out napkins
5) Food hot
6) Receipt printers ready
7) Smiles

Can't remember the rest, but so much for it being a 'Mystery' !.

So they do get to find out which day they're being shopped... So they know who their shoppers are and when they're being shopped - I think I was being too cynical when I said those shops are a farce! :rolleyes:

Hi all, hope you all had a good easter. It's taken me a week to catch up on the thread lol.

I did a burger job last week but on the visit before that one, I commented that the person in the dining area was just standing there looking like one of the Adams family, looking quite scary and not interacting with customers at all. (no, I didn't actually write that!). This time, she (same person) was definately waiting for me!! Kept looking at me, beaming - pouncing on tables to clear & clean them the second customers stood up - looking at me, smiling & giving me eye contact whilst interacting with customers lol. The whole thing was like a panto. I have never been so pleased to do a toilet check, I was wetting myself with smothered laughter :rotfl:

I've been paid a bit more than I was expecting from Gap, so that's nice! Think they may have paid me the full reimbursement for some of the stamp shops, where they didn't try and sell me a product, so extra cash without an extra purchase, brilliant.

I've never seen any coffee shops on Gap though, hmm strange, maybe cos I'm veggy?

I'm no veggie and i can't see any coffee shops...

The coffee shops are for an elite band of gap shoppers, only they can see these jobs.

If Gyp refuse to pay for a pizza job, can I still put the money I spent out down as a business expense?
