  • I feel really bad for describing the MOS as 'Balding' even though that is one of the pre-set options to click and it is 100% accurate...! Sorry Mr Balding MOS :(
  • Esa: I have a myserty shopping job if your interested?
    Me: What?
    Esa: Travel
    Me: Where?
    Esa: (Says name of home town)
    Me: Fee?
    Esa: (insert crappy fee here)
    Me: Um, sorry, but for the time that isn't enough. By the time i've spent 30/45 mins in store and written the report, it doesn't work out at minimum wage does it?
    Esa: ah
    Me: Sorry, it's just not enough for the time
    Esa: I'll let you know of the fee goes up then
    Me: yes please, thanks for the offer though
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

  • BARE have just release another wave of Jewellery assigmments!! Yeah.. just picked up a MS one and a telephone one!! Only one shop allowed - but hoping they do what they usually do and allow us to complete a few additional ones near the end of the cycle!!

    Are you sure? It's usually 1 mon-thu visit and 1 fri-sat visit you can take. Not that I will be taking anything off them again until they pay me!

    From the comments on this thread, there is no way I'm working for Bare till they sort out their payment act. Give me GfK, Grassroots, ESA and RE anytime. They are the most reliable payers.

    :rotfl: I pretty much have that same conversation with them at least once a week. I usually speak to the guy who always sounds like he's just woken up, no matter what time of day he calls!

    Lol! I get him too! I love it when they up the fee by two quid after a long time on hold while he speaks to "the manager". Just want to laugh in his face. ;)

    I remember a few years ago when I had my first 'failed' venture with mystery shopping that a 'Bits of everything' (?) store used to mystery shop themselves (ie. no middle man) and they used to post out money.

    I doubt these days that that is common practice, but i stand to be corrected.:o
    you know alot for a newbie?
