    Lol, I was in "not tested on animals" shop today and heard the manager talking to her staff. Conversation went as follows.

    The mystery shopper was a man! A man I tell you, a bloody man! And he said I took 8 minutes to get to him because I was chatting to you lot, I don't bloody think so"

    She then proceded to talk for 5 minutes before serving me ...

    Gyp are well known for getting rid of/restricting what their shoppers can do. No-one has quite been able to work out why, but you usually get a generic "sorry you're no longer required" email and you aren't allowed to appeal their decision. :confused:

    Quick question for you guys!

    On GfK I have a job that I said I was going to do tomorrow lunchtime, if I want to do it tomorrow evening instead do I need to go through rescheduling it or is it just ok to do it as it's on the same day?

    I've been in the same situation as you and I rescheduled the time slot.

    Has anybody done the travel shop with a callback for ESA?

    An 81 question questionnaire seems a lot to me. Or is it not as bad as it sounds? Also did you get a business card ok? I've never been offered a business card in a travel shop.

    Yay just got my first two for ESA! Only joined them last week so was expecting a longer wait. Both on the same morning in the same town too, and very straightforward.
    Woo hoo!
