    going to go into my phone shop and have a go (although not to the supermarket one i gave a bad report for last week after ignoring my for 45 mins and talking on the phone instead of serving customers)

    Anyway, i had a slight shock tonight. went to do a sanwhich shop and couldn't see my normal food, but there was one like it but with something i don't like. chicken and turkey instead of chicken and bacon.

    I asked if they stopped serving that perticular food and guess what the reply was............................................................................... oh god, we could be here hours but i want somebody to have a go because i'm mortified at it.
    Stop keeping us in suspense. What was the reply? Surely they weren't rude to you because you asked for a particular sandwich?!?!?!?!?

    I'm recovering from some kind of virus at the moment. Been ill since Monday last week. Been doing about one shop a week at the moment! Kind of enjoying the break but would like to pick up a few more shops. I think I'm being too selective haha.

    Selectivity is good. Not worth busting a gut for peanuts (unless they are in a cookie) especially if you are feeling poorly. Hope you get better soon.

    You can keep the Apples....Blackberry's :smileyheaare always the nicest part of a Blackberry and Apple Crumble! :p

    I was not allowed it as they do not sell bacon. They are Halal.
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    If its the bank ones, sometimes you can get confused about what they class as automated machines - so check this in the brief and also regarding the details about whether to accept an appointment or phone call or short chat etc. They are very specific with this and a lot of them are slightly different.

    PM me if you want and I'll see if I can help. I have done literally hundreds of GfK assignments so hopefully I can help.


    Ive tried to send you a PM but your inbox is full!!

    I think the words i used were 'your kidding aren't you' with my mouth open while staring at the girl. I was mortified.

    Yes, but author of the 2nd alert has jumped down peoples throats on many an occasion for posting a duplicate alert and then not going back and deleting it when they see what has happened.

    We posted around the same time. I refreshed the page (as I always do, before posting an alert), and the other poster's alert wasn't there. I posted my alert (though it threw and error at the first attempt) and then went offline.

    BTW, Is there any particular reason for the vendetta that you appear to have against me?

    Yep.
    I must admit i made a few comments. I explained i was dissapointed i was not able to get the food of my choice and for that reason would not shop at the outlet again.

    I explained i see no reason i should be denied the food i wish to eat based on another persons belief and not my own.
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!
