    I would raise a proof reading query on her feedback!

    I agree they are friendly, but have never known them go out of my way to help me find assignments. Must give them a ring about my trip to John O'Groats and see what they can come up with... :rotfl:
    Happy New Year :beer:
  • Good News - I managed to do the RE Sandwich Shop in the end (and got a meal in the process!). A family member very kindly lent me £5, which meant I had to queue at the bank for half an hour to take it out as you can't get 5 pound notes from the machines!!

    It doesn't sound worth the hassle just for an MS, but I'm not hungry anymore, I got £2 to put on my oyster card, and in the long run I made an extra £5 out of it and will (hopefully) no longer be on probation with RE.

    I'm very pleased! x

    Yay! I'm pleased for you too! No more hugs though, I might get you frisky!! :rotfl:

    I wish they would get one of the 450,000 to do that bike shop near gatwick - does anyone ever do that job or does it just get taken off and put back on again.

    I looked at the brief for one of these once a bit closer to home and thought that even if they doubled the fee I couldnt be bothered :rotfl:particularly the week when it hit 32C.

    Something about the spec of a model, e.g. is model X available with Y engine size, or is model X available in Y colour, or is model X available with AC/sunroof/5 doors/ipod connection/automatic wipers?

    It goes on to say about one of the Mystery Shoppers

    Do you think she works for someone in the company? 3 or 4 a week!

    Does this happen for everyone apart from me?


    It's not written to impress you it's written to impress retailers who are possible future clients.

    Read it as though you were a retailer looking for a company to do mystery shopping for you.

    I said something along the lines of, I live in a rural area, and the dealership is a long way from me, would I have to return the car to the dealership for servicing as it would affect my decision to buy! Only works if your closest dealership is about 50 miles away though as they have asked my postcode to check.

    All truth goes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Then, it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident.
