    Ahem I have been doing these checks for ages, I ALWAYS stay for the movie.. You don't know what the job is therefore you are not qualified to comment on what it's all about.

    I have always been given free popcorn and drink and I also sit up in the projection room so I can see the computer screen for accurate timings. I then stay up there for the movie.

    And the OWNER of the cinema is the one who lets me, said company actually have NO problem with this.

    But - they do like to rotate their shoppers I live in a remote area I don't have this problem but chances are you haven't been sacked.

    That's interesting...thanks for all your replies.
    Maybe I'm just being 'rested' for a while. I'm a bit gutted if that's the case because I really enjoyed doing them.
    Also, I've never stayed for the film, and have never been offered a drink or anything either. :(

    was anyone else confused about the 3 new last questions of GR supermarket reports, about exceeding expectation, not sure if meant in general or specific to the visit :doh:

    I was. I still am. I'm not sure if they want the things which did exceed your expectations or what they would need to do to exceed them.
    I picked the latter option in the end.

    Re the cinema trailer checks talk.
    I haven't had an email this month either and I've been doing them regularly for the past year.
    As a matter of interest, has anyone had the email from Danny?
    ;)

    Got given two, one closed down last year, seems nobody told MSC. I got instructions mid afternoon. Not done them for this company before only for First Tracking. Seems easier but more complicated( I know this probably makes no sense) never had them before though as I think they have the regular shoppers maybe this is a rotation?
    Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
    I'm a woman's man: no time to talk

    I find that Danny rarely replies to e-mails, even when it's related to work lol, in fact,i have only had him reply to me once lol, maybe it's gone a bit haywire since beth left, i've had a few e-mails this week, for jobs that i'm no longer on, very strange.

    My god, that was an interesting few pages to catch up on.

    Just to poke my nose in I reckon he lost the list of 'normal' allocators and fudged a new list together. Hence why some have/some haven't got the email.

    And talk about OTT. I don't think I've read anything so wild in accusation with so little information and gotten it so blatantly wrong.
    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!

    Not since Tony Blair's dossier for going to war with Iraq anyway.
