Absolutely! And it's not just dining assignments. I just got back from my favorite restaurant supply store -which I learned about while out on a prior assignment - and while I was there, I noted name tags and greetings and descriptions and time in line and and and...until I told myself to get a grip and to chill out.
I took some time off from non-stop mystery shopping and was back visiting family and was grocery shopping with my father when he started glancing at me oddly. I followed his gaze down to my hands, which were holding my cell phone. I was madly texting notes to myself about different interactions with employees! Ha! My dad took me home and fixed me a stiff drink after that, and told my mother I was not to do anything useful for the next few days because I needed some serious rest. I so love my dad!
