Over the weekend I did a shop that was reimbursement-only. Actually almost all the shops for this particular msc are reimbursement-only. The report is lengthy and required photos of everything "amiss." In this instance I ended up submitting 12 photos. I do the report and submit it. I was actually pretty pleased with my report, as I put in quite a bit of detail.
I awake in the morning with 5, yes 5, emails from the editor. She also left a voicemail message but it said, "Unknown Caller" so I assumed it was a telemarketer and didn't pick up. The five emails were about....the server's uniform. One of the questions on the report was "Was the server's uniform clean and in good repair?" I checked the "yes" box and in the narrative I mentioned, "The uniform was clean." The editor was apparently freaking out because I didn't write "The uniform was clean and in good repair" (even though I clearly marked the "yes" box).
I emailed the editor back and said yes, the uniform was in good repair. An hour later I get a scathing review from the editor. Three paragraphs about not mentioning the "in good repair" aspect of the uniform. She then chastised me because one section of the narrative said, "8-10 sentences required." It was regarding the manager. I wrote that there was no manager present during my visit. I mentioned that I looked around the dining room throughout my visit, and that I only saw servers and bussers. My narrative had 5 sentences, which given the situation, even that was a stretch. I could not think of a reason why I needed to stretch it out to 8 sentences.
After criticizing me and beating me down for 3 paragraphs, she ends the email with, "I look forward to working with you in the future." Nope!
