    Just ask for your receipt and don't worry about it. They might suspect you're a MS'er and do a song and dance for you, but so what.

    If anyone needs a dictophone I've got one here you can have. Got sent two for some reason. Just PM me.

    I agree. I've had some where I go back in after and they say I knew you were the shopper, so I don't bother worrying no more. I'm sure there is just as many they see who arent MSers. I think it's just human nature to wonder and if they aren't doing anything to worry about then their shop with be fine.
  • Tasteless joke of the day:

    How did the Quadraplegic TNS fieldworker keep in touch?

    He used his Dic ta phone! :D

  • Just having a wee nosey around for anything that's maybe been dropped by someone else and found my favourite instruction of the week:
    The Visit must take place between 18/02/2012 and 17/02/2012, during the hours of 15:00 and 17:00.The Visit may not take place on Sundays or Saturdays.

    Yeah, I'll be passing on that one. :rotfl:

    Gah - Gap's website is down and am trying to get hold of code for burger breakfast tomorrow morning. Do they stay there during the time slot or do you need to access them before 8am? Will probably be awake before then but not intending to set an alarm for it!
  • Just out of interest - based on our feedback would someone actually be fired or just retrained?

    If RE had had a 'please describe your entire visit' question today I think a couple of people would be out of a job....

    People at my work have been sacked due to an MS report. Although the report did say 'the customer two seats to my left had a pair of twos and was paid out as a straight flush which I thought was rather suspicious'. Turns out it had been going on for quite a while and it was their mate. The security staff also got disciplined for not spotting it.
  • Is anyone having issues with the emails of shop cancellation from TNS. I really don't want mine to be cancelled as i've already completed them but can't fill them in yet!

    I think the emails are automatic ones - as we've had emails from them saying well get told when we can submit them ie not before Monday then I'm not too worried. The questionnaires aren't complete at the moment - they haven't got all the questions on if you compare them with the word version. The number of "Oops" when you save it is loads so I don't think you could submit it anyway.

    Theres a link on the confirmation email you get sent when you actually take the job, you can access the notes at anytime, even the day of the visit.
