I'm going to balance out my RE proofreader rant from yesterday with a proofreader's rant about mystery shoppers!

The number of reports I'm correcting lately where adult people think it is acceptable to write in text speak without any punctuation in sight is horrendous. And do they think I don't notice that they just copied and pasted one awful report for three separate visits.....??!!!! :mad:

No wonder the fees go down for those of us who do the job properly.

I'm supposed to be on a pre-holiday diet.....so why exactly did I click 'apply' by the doughnut assignment?!

*eta* Especially as the holiday is a cruise, and i'll be eating too much on there as well!

I fully admit my spelling is shocking, but I always spell check my reports and proof read them before pressing the submit button.

I don't understand why a company has people like that. As a proof reader do you tell the company how bad the report is?

HI,
I know this question as asked by someone about the ESA purchase visits currently on... can the item be returned to the store for a full refund? Sorry I am asking again but I cant seem to find the answer... thank you so much

I'm going to Minorca in August. It's a very quiet non-British resort and an all-inclusive hotel. I plan on laying on a sunbed all day while supervising my children playing in the pool and doing not much else. I really deserve a rest, so please pray for sunshine

We grade each one, and supposedly if the shopper scores a low grade three times in a row, their account is placed "under review" or suspended. I've definitely graded the same shopper badly four times now....

TBH, the company doesn't care how bad it is, as long as the proofreader makes it look as though the shopper submitted a nice, well written report. I often find though, that someone who can't be bothered to use use their full stop key usually can't be bothered to do the assignment properly either.
