    Station visits done :D
    Into town and back in 1 hour 5 minutes a new record :D
    Although I only spent like 5 minutes in each shop as they were so small... hope this doesn't matter!
    I have some decent comments to make though

    One of my fave jobs, you dont see any dead bodies, or grieving relatives, and the people are really nice- just need to not let them go on too long about the plan. you need to say your relative wants a cremation, rather than listen to the burial stuff

    This can depend. I remember one visit when the mos suddenly opened the door to one of the viewing rooms before apologizing because the lid of the coffin was off :eek:

    And last round, out of 10 stores, at least half had grieving relatives present. I think January was a busy time.

    did anyone buy RM make up last month? Not had reimbursement, request to send back or permission to return and i could use money back!

    Are you talking about the mineral makeup? I did the job on Thursday 8th March, was phoned for the report & emailed the receipt on Tuesday 13th and received reimbursement in my bank account on Wednesday 21st. Was also told that I could keep the product :j:j

    Same thing happened to me, The MOS was a bit peeved when I announced who I was and I'm sure she intentionally opened the door to show me a coffin with body on show, I kept my cool & didn't give her the pleasure of showing any shock, after that she was ok.

    Aha! Thankyou - I got my payments confused in that case. And we get to keep it? Yay! As it never goes off (apparently!) it should do me for the rest my existence. I only wear makeup to weddings and job interviews.

    Whispers even more quietly: return to store? Might look on ebay, might keep.
