I've done the pizza cutting jobs when another company had the contract.

I had to buy a special knife as they said normal kitchen knives are not good enough. You then have to cut the pizza in a certain way and take photographs from certain angles. By the time you have finished, the pizza is cold and mangled , so it's not as appertising as the jobs where you just buy a pizza and eat it!

I didn't enjoy the job and thought it was too much time and effort for the money they were paying, so I stopped doing them. I don't know if the current companies fees are any better than the last one though.

If it's any help, you are allowed to use decent kitchen scissors, or a sharp knife - certainly nothing more 'special' than a sharp kitchen knife; I used a fold-up 'sheath knife'. A pizza cutter is also allowed, if you have one.

And to clarify: you make four cuts - 30 seconds. I don't think it's helpful to compare this job with 'previous' jobs.

Who are you tell me if my posts are helpful or not? What an arrogant (wo)man you are :mad:

I've done the job and I'm allowed an opinion of it, in exactly the same way as you are allowed to voice your opinion.

All MS jobs have people who like or dislike them for personal reasons, and I think it is important for readers to hear from people who have enjoyed a particular job and people who have disliked a job, so they can make a balanced decision on if the job would suit their personal likes and dislikes.

Which type is it? I've not done the ones where you have to check the trailers.

I have done one where I got a fee and admission for a friend and me to a film of our choice, and we had to visit the all concession stands so we had plenty of nibbles and pop! I enjoyed that job very much.

That sounds really good. Do you mind me asking which mystery shopping site you got that one from?

Thanks.
