Hey
Does anyone have the PDF assignment notes for the RE Royalty Pubs at all they could forward to me. I did one yesterday and just had a ticket as the receipt doesn't show the drinks. I'm sure the notes say you don't have to get one for drinks. If anyone has the notes can you PM me please and then you can email to me if possible?
thanks
Luke

Scenarios should be made as natural as possible. Go in and ask for whatever you like.

I think they like to ask the same question in each store for benchmarking.

It's easier to compare how all the stores performed on "can you help me pick a little black dress" rather than comparing a little black dress enquiry to someone else asking about a pair of trainers and someone else asking about a rain coat and so on.

Ha ha still laughing at what happened earlier to me... doing a load of egg shops quite close together this morning. At the first one, there was a guy delivering the shop some bread, thought nothing of it. At the second one, I left the store, and saw the same guy, delivering bread to that shop. Now on the third shop where I saw him, and he saw me we both looked at each other and laughed, he knew what I was up to !! ha ha ha!!!

I had similar on some quick merchandising jobs in corner shops and newsagents. I must have been following a similar route to a rep for a sweet company and we kept bumping into each other in shops. I stopped off at a nearby retail park to buy some lunch and bumped into him again in the sandwich shop :rotfl:

I don't have the notes but I've never got a receipt for drinks and been paid fine.

Your lucky. In my downloaded history on my phone. The assignment notes state

"Failure to provide a ANY receipt will result in non payment. The only time a receipt is not required is for drinks purchased or drinks visit only"

So, proofreaders need to go back and read the brief again lol

Well there is that but as soon as one employee knows that this month the scenario is 'little black dresses' then straight away they're all on alert. But if people are asking for anything they want to then we gain the upper hand again, so to speak. And I understand the fast food jobs need to be timed, but for most assignments the timings arn't even considered, it's the interaction they want to hear about.
Seriously, when I asked my first question (as mentioned earlier) the MOS was onto me. Obviously someone had found out the scenario and had told everyone what to look out for. Busted, still got paid but the report was next to useless.

Go in, ask/buy whatever you want, tell us how the interaction went. Simple. Real situations, real feedback.
