Maximising income - Mystery Shopping? Surveys? (Part Three)

No encouragement from me!
I did 2 jobs today where I was supposed to enquire about making a large purchase, and go through the sales process.
In branch 1, the arrogant sexist man assumed ladies can't make these decisions without their husbands. Even though I pointed that I was the decision maker, and I point blank asked him for a price on the item numerous times, he refused to discuss offers and insisted I made an appointment to return with my husband :mad:
In branch 2, all the salespeople were busy, and there were people waiting to see them. As the wait would be long, I was given a brochure and advised to ring back and make an appointment to see someone.
So I never got to do the full scenario in either branch. I do hope I get paid, as I tried my best to get as much information as I could.
I can just hope and pray that your data will be taken on board by the client, who will take action about their employees being such sexist "£&*("£&*()"£&*("£s! :mad:Ex board guide. Signature now changed (if you know, you know).0 -

That is really shocking!:eek: Well, just think at least you can get your revenge when you complete the feedback - you just won't see how it goes down with the person concerned! I take it, it was for a large ticket item like £1k or something? (not that that is any excuse, mind)0 -
It was a very large ticket item costing £10K!Here I go again on my own....0

Thanks for that Josie. Mine weren't showing up either.
Can you also explain how the 'thanks' works because if I click on it it just dissappears but doesn't register my thanks.0 -

Usually it disappears but shows up in the "following user.." bit - but yours doesn't seem to - not sure why.
Anyway, have been reading through this thread and signed up to Gap & RE - enjoying it so far. I won't give up the day job, but every little helps, eh?
Thanks to everyone on here for all their useful stuff! Keep it up please!0 -
I recently had a nightmare with a fast food outlet where I left as I did not feel safe. Interesting to see what the outcome will be as I completed as much of the asssignement as I could but could not justify staying somewhere there an abusive/threatening person. I wouldn't do it in any cicrcumstances.
I couldn't find any advice re health and saftey of mystery shoppers for the company concerned.Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 102
