    Just did the pizza job and that has to be the worst pizza I have ever had in my life. I would have normally complained but the assignment says "Do NOT contact head office or the store with a complaint". Cold, not enough toppings and what was there was not evenly spread, poor service, he couldn't understand me and I couldn't understand him, too expensive..This is going to be one very bad report. I will never ever go back there.

    Well I have just jumped on the Mystery Shop bandwagon, signed up to

    ABAi - Got my first job to complete tomorrow

    GfK - Just passed their little test which had a couple points of interest for the job above.

    International Service Check - saw the job ad on job centre plus posted yesterday (due to new contracts so says ad)

    My OH used to do MS some 8/10 years ago (when you posted your reports or faxed over if urgent!) and we noted the remuneration has somewhat crashed through the floor, going on the first job I have to do.

    I will give it a few months to see how things turn out

    Ah, shame about the drink, it's one of the benefits of the blooming card! If you got a card you'll have to ask for your drink next time. I'm usually the only female as well but I think the staff just go along with the game and are usually pretty friendly. I've been in one where I was the only person in there, that was a VERY long 15 mins :rotfl:

    WHY OH WHY OH WHY

    does TNS want ‘Attitude to Risk’? from us? they say it relates to assignment, but it seems they are looking for data ... the reason why I do not know.

    I have shopped various cars companies from them and they do not ask if I like certain cars ... so why ask about this! seems fishy to me
    ............... Have you ever wondered what
    ¦OO¬¬ O[]¦ Martin would look like

    I was wondering why they want that - can't see how it is relevant to the jobs I am likely to do for them (poor credit rating so rather excludes me from the finance jobs I've seen them send emails about). Think my quick supermarket jobs don't really need a risk attitude analysis :rotfl:
