    On the Abai petrols jobs it says both visits need to be done between 8am and 8pm, but does this mean they need to be one after another. I'm thinking of doing the first to the main place on my way into work and the rival visit later in the day, is that ok? or do you need to do them closer together time wise to get a better comparison.

    TIA


    Any time on that day between those two hours are OK.

    Never heard of them. Look fairly legit - I might sign up. Easiest way to tell is if they ask you to send them money to 'process your application' or something similar.

    Nice website they've got anyway.

    I joined many moons ago but not heard anything from them.

    Help !!!!! peeps !!!

    Just done one of those little french numbers airside today, only not 100% I did the right one as there's 2 big ones and at least 1 stall. Worse part is the questions all seem to be aimed at going to a restaurant which obviously I didn't because I was in the Airport and none of the places you would say were restaurants

    Has anyone done one of these before and had similar issues? If so did it matter which one you did in the end?

    Yes, that's fine as long as both are conducted on the same day.

    Thanks for the advice :)
  • I owe someone a huge thanks, I have looked back but cannot find the right part in the thread, someone has emailed me a fantastic spreadsheet for 'mystery shopping'.

    A HUGE thank you, whoever you are

    I know this will have been mentioned countless times before. However, I feel the need to rant about it again.

    Why-oh-why must MS companies insist that we get a receipt for jobs like burgers and pizzas? I did a pizza assignment today for Gap. An express pizza assignment. The moment I mentioned a receipt the service went sky high in terms of performance. Kerching! Mystery shopper - must be nice to them!

    Hardly reflective of day-to-day service now is it? Do these companies want accurate reports of their staff? Or just proof that we conducted the visit like we said we did? (Sod the fact that there were countless CCTV cameras beaming down on me and my providing left and right info).

    Rant over! :cool:

    You input the number of sheets printed, miles travelled etc. and it works out your profit/loss. FABULOUS!:j
