When I am bored, I make you things. Or practice my sign language. I want you to be so proud of me when you come see me in 2 weeks! :) Hope it goes quickly....
In other news, I recently expressed an interest in becoming a Mystery Shopper that I found on
Craigslist. Upon receiving a reply, I find it hard to continue.
Hello Applicant,
the purpose of Mystery Shoppers is to help businesses increase sales and improve employee customer service awareness. We provide businesses with more information than other mystery shopping companies through the use of questionnaires and detailed narratives. Once we have a contract to do so, you will be directed to the company or outlet and you will be given funds to either purchase things or require services, after which you would write a comment on the staffs activities and give a detailed report of your experience.
Some of the common details and information points shoppers:
* the date and time of the visit
* the name of the store
* number of employees in the store on entering
* how long it takes before the mystery shopper is greeted
* the name of the employee(s)
* whether or not the greeting is friendly
* the questions asked by the shopper to find a suitable product
* the questions asked by the employee(s)
* the types of products shown
* whether the employee invited the shopper to come back to the store
* cleanliness of store and store associates
* speed of service
* compliance with company standards relating to service, store appearance, and grooming/presentation

Oh the horror. I just...can't...do it. I cannot take an e-mail with that many grammatical errors seriously. Who is their editor??
I do need a new job though. I really fucking hate my current one. I wish I had enough money to go back to school and become an interpreter. Gabe, apparently I want to be you and Derrick combined: a freelance editor AND a sign-language interpreter...haha. You guys have such great ideas! :)
Meanwhile, just trying to remain optimistic in Houston. I wish I was back in Austin....
