    I only picked it up because I walked past it the other day on way to B and Q to get a heater and saw it was closed down for good. Woop! :D

    won't lie, I've done the same with a Gap Chicken..

    Has anyone done an AA football job? There's one near me (new centre so I guess that's why there weren't any before) and was wondering what you have to do as the bit of information on it doesn't say very much. Thank you :)

    That brief pretty much states it. Covert a photo of banner, notice board and the manager (can be the back). Ensure there is a referee for each game and the manager only observes. Very simple and don't worry if you get approached you can reveal and say your doing an audit.

    You'd think the client would know because they people going round the stores taking their fixtures out before they shut down.

    That's not all. I've done the same for the ex ESA camera shops which went to RA and have now gone bust, and a whole collection of phone shops which were moving into a new shopping centre and had closed down. TNS paid me close to a ton for doing sweet F/A.

    It's all good. :D

    aaahhh that awkward moment when you get begged to do a gap double postage visit negotiate a good premium, then mess it up by saying the wrong location that starts with the same letter in the store.
    serves me right for taking too much on and looking at holiday brochures for the place I shouldnt have said the day of the visit muddling up my thoughts i guess.
    First visit Ive messed up in nearly 4 years or so I think, but we're all human and it happens
    Whats odd is that gap havent sacked me, called me to give a premium pizza visit tonight then emailed offering another premium to redo the one I messed up.
    not sure i can get away with the same scenario but different location this time though.
    but just shows they dont sack people for the sake of it as many would suggest
