I Want This Job!
An acquaintance of mine - someone I'm rather fond of, actually - decided she could use a few more dollars than the day job affords. Just a little 'part-time' employment for just a little extra cash.I can't believe people get PAID to do what she's going to be doing! She seems to have strolled in and was hired on the spot. Of course, she's a highly presentable and well-educated young woman. She said it was instantly clear that the job was hers, just by the look on the interviewer's face.
She's going to be a "Secret Shopper" and the fellow who hired her said they'll be saving her for 'upscale' restaurants. So her weekend 'job' will be to take a hundred, fifty dollars of someone else's cash and go to the best restaurants in L.A. She'll order a meal and at least one mixed drink of her choice and later write a report on the service and behavior of staff. She figures that will take twenty minutes because she's a professional writer. When she hands in her report I think they give her something in the neighbourhood of sixty dollars cash.
Free food, free entertainment and money! Does it get any better than that?

Good grief! What a great job, especially if they let you take a book to the restaurant with you instead of "a companion".
What's her dress size though? What will it be in 6 months' time? (Just trying to find a bright side for the rest of us!)
Why are these jobs not advertised? I would be pushing to the front of the queue.
A few years ago a friend worked for a private security firm. She was paid to steal to test the shop's security staff!
