No kidding. I don't give a flying youknowwhat if any of the MSCs ID me or not. I guess it's easy, because I'll be back out of grad school in a matter of weeks and back to "real world" jobs, anyway. There are more of them that need help than I can work for, anyway.
It at least took Marketforce several years and over 500 shops before they jammed me on a shop (it was not for their lack of trying, either, in retrospect) just once for me to give them any symbolic finger you want to throw in and be done with them.
GFK only took exactly 10 shops for me to do the same for them today.
All it took was me noticing a 1/10 rating for a late-night take-out wings shop ("9:30-close, enter within two hours of closing" ) I did on 10/8.
First, the response was that I came in too early. Then, it was "Oh, they close at 1am? You came in too late". Then, when asked why this shop was rated a 1 when I've gone into other late night shops even later (after midnight for a 2am closing time on a Saturday night, for example) and gotten 8s or 9s, poor Robin could not clarify that any further. I can do the math and I deactivated that endless pile of emails for shops nobody wants to do for them this morning (whew!) and eventually myself from the site a few minutes ago.
So, there you have it.
Another one of those MSCs that preaches neutrality and integrity and all that other jazz, but just remember not to tar and feather their big client's performance on a shop even when it is deserved. We just can't have that, you know.
Maybe it's time some of you stop being afraid of these MSCs and hold them to that high and mighty standard they preach so much about and they won't get away with the nonsense that they do and the ones that don't get the message will just go away like they need to.
