    Evening

    I quite enjoy the cryptic stuff, makes for an amusing read at times.

    Does anyone have any stop watch type tips they would be happy to share either here or PM please (interested in both methods of being discreet and models of watches)? I bought one but it doesn't have a memory and I'm always sooooooooooo worried about being seen. Thought I would ask before I shell out for another that doesn't make life any easier!

    I've been doing some rapid food jobs, I'm convinced when they ask 'do you want a receipt' and you say 'yes please' that's the house alarm call for mystery shopper in the building. Also I have decided to go check out the wc before I order in future, reduces the number of servers fighting to hold the door open and being ever soooooo interested in my wellbeing. Can't say I have this service when I don't signal to accept the receipt. Still if that's the ticket to get premium service when you are not on the job then so be it (excuse the puns!).

    HHx

    I never use the fast food places but if I did I would always ask for a receipt. My husband often goes to them and I have told him to ask for a receipt to see what happens :rotfl:

    Be interesting to know how he gets on! I managed to find a stop watchstop app for my phone last night so life should be much easier :j

    I was going to suggest a mobile phone stopwatch. You don't look suspicious fiddling with a mobile phone.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Ummm I dunno if RE has messed up my profile AGAIN but i can only see pharmacy and like 5 jobs... Hrm Are all those airport ones gone?


    Morning Jen,
    The aeroporto jobs are all still there, or were 5 minutes ago.I had another quick look through them & the scenarios are not much different from here.
    Except there may be a language problem, that RE haven't thought about, it'll be a laugh (don't think !) when you try to make the reply fit the scenario.:eek::eek:
    My experiences always show me that they try to serve you fast as the queues are long & people want something to eat & drink in a hurry, not to be faffing about.:D
    It'll be interesting to see if anyone from the forum picks up any of them.:)

    How odd. I don't see the airports anymore.

    And i don't see the new edig invites on the alerts thread.

    Ummmmm
    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!

    I'm just releasing some jobs in RE in mid Scotland- a hotel and a pub as my daughter is coming to visit and I want time with her. Also a couple of meals on the eating company again in north Scotland. Go get'em people!

    This is my first month with Gap and I'm probably being dim. Is there somewhere on the website I can see what jobs have been paid?
