    Record for RE proofreading enquiries?

    I've had three in quick succession on the same job (one that I thought I had written plenty of detail on, and for which the report took me twice as long as the other five jobs I did on the same day, for the same fee) .... how does this make me feel? Increasingly tetchy!
    What's anyone's record for queries on a single job?

    That's interesting as I quite like these jobs, they seem a lot more natural to me than the Blue betting shop scenario..

    I mean I enjoy the scenarios however its just that the staff always know who the MS is Because of the whole ASKING where the toilet is and then the standard £2 bet.
    I agree the scenario is more natural than the dark blue one.

    Did the dock a pint for each one?
    I had one where I had written a good description, of a staff member whos name I had anyway. The docked me a point for not mentioning the length of his hair.

    How do you describe men's hair, anyway? I always just end up putting 'short', if their hairstyles have names then I don't know them! (Unless they've got long hair or have a shaved head, that's easy enough.)

    I'm having a very good month so far (I assume cos i had nearly 2 months off and i'm not barred from anything).

    Nearly reached my personal best (26 jobs in a month, done twice). Does anybody else keep track of how many they do? I must admit not going to be very good in comparison to the full timers, but I do have a full time job, weekend bf etc and I do stay very close to home!! so don't think my record is to bad.

    How about everyone else?

    my personal best is 58 in one month :eek: although 13 were edig surveys. earnt a nice £622 :D:money: i also work full time and stay close close to home but i live in a city, have a smart phone and a fast finger :rotfl:

    like you i had had a break so had no rotations so lots available. did half that the next month! :cool:

    As a mystery shopper, you should know that observation skills are probably THE most important attribute required to do the job well.

    TG post the below, a mere TEN posts above yours...less than 12 hours before your post.



    We'll happily help people where needed, laziness will be frowned upon, to say the least...

    :mad: Is there any need?

    Hi all,

    I have been MSing regularly for about 4 months now, just done my first job for ESA today. I'm having a lot of trouble submitting the form - it says that the questions are incomplete, but I have entered them and spell checked them. I haven't a clue what I need to do or type, I'm sure it's probably something silly and obvious, but I just can't think of anything! I can't find anything on their website to help, and of course their phoneline is closed at this time on a Saturday, therefore I can't imagine anyone answering an email before midnight either.

    I'm sorry if this has been posted and resolved a million times before on these threads, but I searched and couldn't find anything. I'm getting really upset and panicky now as I really pride myself on getting everything just right and meeting deadlines, especially for the first job for an MS company.

    Someone please help! I don't mind whether it's on this thread or by PM.

    Thanks in advance!

    PS. The job was a visit to a phone shop to talk to an employee specialising in a particular handset, if that helps.
