    You are pretty much naming the client here, given that is the common nickname for them.

    I see where you're coming from yonk, but in fairness to Buzby, I've seen much more obvious references, to this client and others. For example, with this client, the other day someone (I've forgotten who but it was one of the regulars) made a reference to its logo, and you'd have to have spent your life living under a rock to not know exactly who they were referring to. I'm not even with Gap, but even if they didn't name this client on one of their main pages, I'd have worked out who it was a very long time ago by various things said on here.

    fair enough, it must be the other forum where they say not to use obvious identifiers. However, given that the point is not to irritate the MS companies/clients and get the thread pulled, then obvious identifiers in any form and for any client shouldn't be used.

    But I don't really care as I don't do burgers, failed the test!

    Oh don't get me wrong, I very much agree with you, just thought it didn't seem fair to have one person pointed out when others have done the same/similar or worse :)

    Me too :D

    I did a MF WIFI check in a Gap burger this morning, got a fantastic floorshow, I didn't have the heart to tell them.

    I'm doing one tomorrow, looking forward to seeing if I get one of these legendary floorshows :D Did you order the required meal or will anything with a request for a receipt suffice?

    I had a meal, I quite like the breakfast stuff they do.
    I can't find the brief but I think it is`anything to get a receipt.

    Oops I meant did you order the same meal that Gap ask for. But sounds like you didn't, so hopefully I'll get a floorshow whatever I end up ordering :)

    Ok, I have TNS pay but cannot work it out. Since we don't get payslips anymore (well I don't) how can we work out what we have been paid on the VAS site?
    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!
