    Good morning guys

    I'm signed up to the majority of companies on the first page and carry out regular work for them.
    I was just wondering if any of you have heard of or worked for Gekko mystery shopping? A friend of mine (who I didn't know was a MSer) mentioned that's the company she works for but I wasn't sure of the reputation of it.

    Thanks in advance, have a great day!

    I had gyp fries with my meal tonight. It was odd because I had ordered ordinary fries, but the MoS assembling the order called out for "gyp fries". Gosh, the gyp ones are better than the ordinary ones - so hot and fresh! I'm going to specifically ask for gyp fries next time.:rotfl:
    Me too! :D

    Can anyone recall who it was that picked up the 'premium uk holiday' assignment recently? I can't remember who it was and can't trawl through the posts just now.

    I used to work for Gekko, not in an MS role though. They also act as an employment agency, and can fulfill client's needs for more staff, hence why I came into contact with them. They were looking for merchandisers and general retail staff, didnt have a real issue with them but wouldnt work with them again, just not the sort of firm I like working for.

    They always paid on time though.

    If anyone's interested... I just signed up for a RE job, and the proofing questions had something about Name Badges in... They mentioned this was not applicable for xxx, xxxxx, xxxxxx. One of these was the coffee that Gyp used to do....

    One to watch out for on RE maybe?

    Anyone doing the travel shops for ESA suspect they have been sussed? I did one in the last wave and just done one at lunchtime. Everything was 'normal' until she put my surname into the computer and then she asked if my initial was J which I said it was. Then she went a bit 'weird' - just wondering whther a note has been made on their system.
