    Just been in my local off license (the one RE sometimes do). There was a new member of staff training and while I was browsing, the manager was telling her all about Mystery Shoppers, and explaining that last time the shop got a good report (I did it I think!) and that you can tell the Mystery Shopper because they always spend ages browsing and then ask for a receipt. So I spent ages browsing, and then when she'd rung my goods up said "Can I have a receipt for these please?"

    You should have seen the look of horror on the manager's face!

    Quite honestly the thing that rings alarm bells is the demand for as they say "Social Security" number.

    When I went on last night to have a look I didn't put my NI number anywhere and it let me log on. There was only one job showing then and there is nothing on it now anyway.
    Hasn't this happened before with Blue Apple and another company, I can't remember who it was. I didn't mind then coz I got a load of food for my freezer. :j
    Couldn't think of anything witty to say so just keeping the space until I can :(
    Stripper No 7 in HCSC :D
  • Morning all , just a heads up that RE money is in the bank today and a Gap non-food job. Off out for a decent pub lunch today but no jobs at all this weekend and only 1 lined up for next week .... hope everyone else is having more luck than me getting jobs !

    Hi
    Have accepted my first phone shop on Abai today, but the details have been sent to home email, which I won't get until tonight.
    There is another phone shop in the area, which I also could do, but I want to see what I am going to have to do before I accept two jobs.
    Can any one advise on how easy/difficult these jobs are.
    Would I be a fool not accept the second job???

    It's pretty simple, in and out in 10-20 mins or so depending how busy the shop is.

    Ive done 3 of these , cant do any more on this wave apparently , and I found them very straightforward to do , I would personally take the second one.
