    Are we talking the GAP one or the game playing one? I'm totally confused but am starving at the mention of pizza!

    Sarah Leigh, please bring a pizza over. Mimi is hungry!

    Mimi it's the one on the outside of the kingsgate centre and it's not very nice at all. I give it to the people at work.
    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!
  • Evening all. Does anyone know what co's do spa treatments please?:)

    If you pick the right pizza they're pretty good (certainly better than the dirty Gap pizzas!). Plus you can get them on BOGOF on a Tuesday, so two pizzas and a very reasonable fee for a very quick report makes them one of my favourite jobs! Hence really hoping MF don't get them!

    I do it on a Tuesday. Order it to work (as they don't deliver to my home address) and let the controllers on shift have it. Fee for me, food for them lol

    When the director sent round that email re someone handing out "confidential information" to the store they were auditing I knew I needed to bin them. Mind you I got uncomfortable with them when they started sending me in to take photos of displays in Sainsburys when they didnt not have permission to do so.

    If you think all supermarkets do not do competitor analysis you are mistaken
    As long as im not asked to obtain confidential material I dont mind who pays me to collect the publiclly available data. Only reason that company is generaly offlimits is they get paid a fee from just allowing 2 "accredited" companies to do any merchandising /audits and forcing all supplies to go through them. That said I've been there with quite a few different agencies who are working for clients wanting to ignore that at a cheaper price though its getting harder of late to do overt visits as reception staff are being told to clamp down

    All I know is I nearly got arrested when I tried to do it. I'm aware they all do competitor analysis, but taking photographs of store layout = cheap copies of planograms = theft of intellectual property.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.
