Two Msers I 'know' went on a month long Asia hotel tour Mostly 5* but some not. The trip turned out to be more nghtmare than holiday though.

A while back OC used to send people to Caravan Parks -I went to Skegness :rolleyes:
They also had Spa hotels where you stayed 2 days-You had to be SAGA age though!

Longer back-I think it was Gfk or NOP had Ski holidays....

Yes! I remember the ski holidays. I'm sure it was GfK. You had to go to about 11 different food outlets during a long weekend or something. I don't ski as I am originally from a warmer climate and cannot fathom that people will go somewhere cold - FOR A HOLIDAY!?

Hiya all,

I have done a job today at the slots, one of the questions is about posters displayed... there were quite a few but I can only remember one. Can anyone please PM me if they know what posters are currently displayed?

I know it'll come back to me when I hear the promotions...

I was on my lunch from my regular job so felt totally rushed. Was 15 minutes late back too. I'll not be doing another job in my lunch hour again. Far too stressful


Thx in advance

If it's somehwere nearby, I'd just go back and have a look, just maybe go in, have a look at the machines for a minute or two, then pretend that none of them take your fancy and walk out.

I would but they close in 5 mins Cant go tomorrow as back at work. aaw man dont know what to do

On the plus side, I put a quid in a 10p machine today & the first 10p won me a tenner! So even if I dont get paid for this job I'm still in profit

Well done on the tenner. I tell you I've gambled more since I started MSing than ever before. Haven't tried the slots yet though.

With the posters, I would just describe the one that you saw and then say that you don't remember the details of the other posters. It's true and I wouldn't have thought a major failing.

Anyone done a MS for the big music store with RE? I have just done the survey and normally they want you to type in loads to fill the boxes with rubbish, but It allowed me to just click yes or no. I thought it wouldn't go through, but it did. I can't believe it was that easy. I bet they come back to me.

Well done on the win:D

It doesn't sound like a reason for non payment to me either. Did the instructions specifically say you had to note what was on all the posters?

I would just put a general comment in your report saying there were a number of posters displaying current promotions. Describing the one that you remember should suffice.

If they come back with a proofreading query you may have already been back to check;) I wouldn't go out of your way though. If the posters weren't eyecatching enough for you to remember what was on all of them them you could just say that.

Yep, me too. It didn't ask for name/description of the assistant/s either, and didn't ask you to write a paragraph at the end describing your visit from start to finish even though you've already done it by answering the questions!
