I'm doing a mystery shop tomorrow at a tourist attraction and I have to visit a food place and a gift shop while I'm there. I've just been looking on their website and they have 4 food places and 2 gift shops. On the job brief it says you have to check the "yellow sticky" to see if there is a specific one you need to go to, but I can't find / don't know where to look for a yellow sticky, please help!!
Its with react if that helps anyone

If this is on the naked site go to your job board. On the current job there should be a little yellow square. click on that and it will open a small window with job details.

Good luck!

Morning all !

Have to agree with TG about the TNS supermarket jobs they are much more straightforward than they first look. You have to spend at least 30 mins at the store but this includes your cafe and petrol station visit, there is no problem completing them in this time , Ive done three this week alone. If its going to take 10 mins to get into the petrol station , one of my local ones takes ages to get into as well, then you would be better just popping in there on foot from the main store car park to make your small purchase. Good luck anyway , I find the reports take about 10 mins make to complete even with adding the necessary comments. HTH !

The only jobs I saw were holiday phone calls (got one) and some phone call / health club visits (quite a good fee and got snapped up quick !)

I'm doing this one today and I must admit I was absolutely dreading it until I read your posts saying they're not so bad!!

It does seem like an awful lot of work from the notes - I have filled up 4 notes into my phone and that's a record, normally 2 is a long job!!! (I type notes in my phone and then pretend to be texting so I can check details I need to remember).

I will let you know how I find it Lil_Me as I also have done the quick ones and found them great!

Hi,

I notice there are quite a number of car showroom jobs for TNS in my area, anybody done these? On first reading there seems a lot of work for little reward.

I find TNS very mixed. Sometimes the assignments are straightforward and well rewarded, other times a total headache.

Thanks.

These are the ones that I'm having problems getting the assignement notes for. You have to sign up to another site and apparently they are on there.....but they're not.

The biggest problem is that TNS don't reply to emails anymore!!

Hi- I've been having that problem with tns- got deselected from a coffee job after having trouble with a link which I had emailled them about. I realised I had replied to an email that said at the bottom 'do not reply'- however, when I did email them again they still didn't get back to me :mad:
They seem to have changed their systems.
