The Mystery Shopping thread - VIII

TractorGirl327

I'm doing quite well this month. The next week is pretty hectic:

Today: Done 3 - Gap coffee, GKF bank and Amber Arch shoes
Tomorrow - Got 4 - Gap 2 x phone; ABAi catalogue; GR electronics. Had an RE pub meal lined up but my Dad cancelled our "date" and no-one else was free at short notice so I had to cancel :mad:
Thursday - Got 3 - TNS pizza; Gap coffee; RE phone call
Friday - Got 8! - GR bank, electrical, and mobile phone; Gap 2 x coffee and 2 mobile phone; ABAi retail store
Monday - Got 6 - GR 2 x travel agents, mobile phone & designer store; ABAi retail store; GFK bank
Tuesday: ABAi retail store; TNS 2 x supermarkets and 1 coffee.

So looks like I might have pinched all the work in my area!! :rotfl::rotfl:

Sounds like you're pretty busy. If you don't mind me asking how do you get Abai to extend the deadline. The ones I see usually ask you to do the shop within 2 or 3 days. Or is that a different assignment?

I've usually found ABAi pretty accommodating, if you email them they will usually extend the deadline.

Having said which the 3 retail ones I'm doing aren't normal "run of the mill" ABAi jobs and they don't have the same 2-day deadline - and please don't ask me to tell you who they are for because I've referred so many people lately I think they are getting a bit suspicious as to how I have so many friends in different parts of the country!

You're a popular woman TG!

Not to mention daily posts saying people haven't received their payments yet - rather than posting on here and clogging up the forum, why not RING ABAi AND ASK IF PAYMENTS HAVE BEEN SENT YET???

Sorry but I did that and they said they had been sent, at least chatting on here we realised a lot of us in same boat and post had not gone missing. Sorry I thought this thread was for chat etc......

I humbly apologise for "clogging up" your forum

Minniepoos I don't think TG was aiming that at you in particular - if you have a look at the last handful of pages everyone's talking about it!

It's nobody here's forum so nobody here sets any rules - however TG is a great contributor to this thread and is a very wise MSer - I don't think she was beating her chest about the thread!

Some of us say things more frankly than others which can be a good way of highlighting annoyances for others - not really sure if I'm making any sense but I for one get a bit bored of the same old discussions so I unsubscribed from this thread - it'd be a shame if some of the old birds (I refer to you with my tongue in cheek here TG) went away because of it.

Don't take offence; your contributions to this thread are valuable too.

No not really, just need to spend more time at work, working rather than reading post after post asking how to add clients to frickin ABAi!

I still check back but getting a subscription notification every 2 minutes throughout the day is rather annoying (especially when I can't leave them unread!)

"Annoyances"? As said earlier, no one makes you come to this thread and read the posts, maybe what you say annoys everyone else !?!

This is a MS chat thread and it is presumed that it is OK that we chat about all stuff regarding MS. If it makes the minority happy, us "annoyances" wont bother posting anymore about our missing payments and other MS problems

Damn...got a proof-reading query on my underground sandwich job for RE-

"As a customer, did you find the environment comfortable and inviting? Please provide further detail relating to the atmosphere of the location, which was created by the Team Member."

I've got no idea what to write for this, its a little takeaway sandwich shop with one person working at the counter and two tables, what kind of atmosphere do they expect in there?

Can anyone help me out with some good things to say??
