I've had CCTV queries before. It's fairly normal tbh, the burger people get a £1 an hour bonus if they get good results, so they will go to extraordinary lengths to do that.

Well done to everyone with their first REACT job. Let's hope this is the first of many.

Got a busy Monday next week. Have 9 jobs lined up. Woohoo!

Missed all the React jobs again!
Although I've only ever been allocated 2 from them

None for me either.

Just to check it's not that I've just missed it somewhere, as I've not done one for ages - but there's no minimum spend for Egg shops now it's an 'all inclusive fee' is there? Only picked this one up as I'm doing a shop 2 doors down, and needed to get eggs and milk while I'm out, so it actually worked out quite well, seeing as I'd bet any money that my milk will be leaking!

Yep, all inclusive in the fee. And to be fair to them, I did a couple this time round and thought the visit and questionnaire were slightly easier than they used to be.

If you dont have to take photos. And still not easier enough to justify the 30% drop in the fee. Needed to get in my moan about that...

Monkeynut

I know when I did these ones before I had to do photos (though this was a fair while ago now), but it didn't say on the notes this time. So I would assume that means I don't need to. Hmmm
And it says minimum attachments required: 1, so I don't think I need to, but in case it's hidden somewhere sneakily and I've not read it properly or something, I may just take them in case!!

I've just done one, at the botton of the briefing page it will say if they are required, as well as if there is an ATM or deli etc none of the recent ones have needed pics just the recceipt thankfully!

How often do you get the feeling that the sales assistants/colleagues/scoopers/floor staff/till operators/members of staff/servers/whatever the brief insists we call them, know exactly who you are and what you're doing?

Most of the time I'm alright but I find the burger shop, the cheap pub and the betting shop always seem to know what you're up to. I blame the scenarios because they're often daft, and of course the receipt is a give away too. Who asks for a receipt with their burger or pint?

Oh, big electrical store too. There's no way that bloke is that helpful and nice all the time.

Yesterday I did a travel agent and after I left I popped across the road to get a newspaper. As I looked out the window I saw the assistant I was talking to step out of the store and wander around the street looking for something or someone. I'm sure she was looking for me writing up my notes. When I came out of the newsagents I stood there watching her and she eventually saw me. She smiled and looked 'busted' and then scurried away back to her store. Just makes you wander how much they know.

burgers can be tricky and the recent pip diy stores i done were a nightmare for trying to stay 'undercover'
