    Ooh I see there's suddenly a chemist showing in my area for RE. I guess someone has released it... can't imagine why!

    For all we know, that may be the exact purpose of the visit, sounds like a good idea to me...!

    But then we would have been told in case an mystery shopper goes all lunatic and effing and blinding "I want this one! I can't afford to lose my fee!!

    And now I've just printed off the questionnaire - all 11 pages of it - and there are departments on there that aren't mentioned on the brief!

    OMG this is going to be a disaster!

    How does everyone else do these jobs?

    It is easy TG. The only names and descriptions you need really are the checkout person and the 1 at customer services.

    Any you miss just be vague and say male, average height, short dark hair and it cound be anyone. After all one thing you do is ask something like "Where are the tinned peas" Now they usually dive off you follow they say "There they are" and vanish so you wouldn't get a chance to read their name badge.

    I must look really weird - I tend to 'lurk' and pretend to look at something nearby so I can sneakily look at the name badge before I actually approach the sales assistant! :rotfl:

    Interestingly I've found a forum on RPoints where MS jobs are advertised.

    May be of help to some.

    They've not had the courtesy to let you know?! I wouldn't have thought they owe you any courtesy at all bearing in mind you failed to follow the instructions - I'd suggest you're lucky to have kept the three they left you with. You've created more work for them because somebody has had to go round checking accounts and has had to delete them for you - then you expect them to spend more time emailing you too?

    Sorry... but ARGH! :mad:
    Jdan after all the aggro we had a few days ago on here. We dont want a repeat of that. May I suggest you read the forum guidelines about being courteous. There is no need to scold posters like naughty children.

    The best thing about this forum is the courtesy. Let's keep it that way.
