Glad you got it sorted and welcome to the ms thread

Thanks My observational skills are much better than that when MSing, I swear! Although my ability to concentrate was strongly challenged during today's shop - the employee I had to speak to was easily one of the dishiest blokes I've seen in my entire life...

I got an email from Tern sacking me for not having done any work in 9 months.
I explained that I had applied for everything in my area but been turn down.
They reinstated me, and told me to call next time I had something to apply for and they would fast-track it.
I am still waiting for a suitable visit 2 months later.

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Same here, except they've still not re-instated me yet.

I've been mystery shopping for nearly a month now, and I should complete about 31 jobs in my first month. However 15 of those are low paying, fairly quick emails, so they don't really count.

It's nice when this happens every once in a while.The majority of the time the staff you end up getting stuck with are the ones mentioned on the last couple of pages here - the fa, smelly ones!!!

I had a really gorgeous guy waiter on a restaurant job last weekend, had to put up with him for nearly two hours!!
I was considering writing 'very fit' in the staff member description box, but I thought it might be a tiny bit unprofessional.

Although those jobs aren't what they were *sighs about decreasing pay and standards*

Very truee the pay is decreasing all over the board though, I guess its in proportion to the decreasing fees for all MS jobs. Although a company called 'Servelegal' have and huge clients from supermarkets to betting shops to homeware shops and they specialise in test purchasing and you could get 8-10 jobs in 1 town! only thing is you have to be 18/19 to do these jobs so I will be 'Retiring' soon. The good think about the TNS think 25 is the short report, literally when the faffing around with the password is done it can take 3/4 minutes for the whole report!

Preaching to the converted I'm an old (read retired) Think 21/25 hand. But as said - back when there was none of this reveal nonsense, you could buy anything you liked and got whatever mileage you wanted ... those were the days.

Oh. Completely missed the fact that there was a left-right scrollbar! Said it'd be something stupid, didn't I?

I did that when I first started with ESA

i had it on a tern eye-test, he was sooooo fit! very embarassing as it is very intimate in a dark room with his face practically touching yours... :rotfl:

on another note, visited for personal reasons about my contacts and he was fit too!

Is it just me that always gets the 'results received, Thanks' email from Gap, after submitting a report, Twice. Every time!!

Yes, I always do. Would be nice if they paid me twice too:rotfl:
