Tweet, tweet tweet, tweet tweet

Audited a gas station today. Heard a lot of bird tweets while inside - wasn't that loud and didn't pay much attention. I guess I figured it was one of those sounds that happen when someone comes in or goes in the back - I've encountered those before. Turns out it was some parakeets or something in a cage that was sitting on the counter behind the lottery display. It wasn't at the pay area or near any food preparation areas. Don't think they even had food preparation. An employee wanted to know why the last mystery shopper reported them for it. LMAO! This wasn't a report where we are asked to describe the atmosphere or our feelings. Basically just check boxes, and no questions asking about birds or tweets.

I had to report a snake on the neck/shoulders of a CSR in a convenience store. I wasn't bothered by it, but I could see why some people could be.

I would TOTALLY freak out if a CSR had a snake about her/his shoulders! Tattoes are bad enough, but snakes would give me nightmares!

I don’t do audits, but I love the more straightforward gas station mystery shops. On one of the first gas shops I did, the convenience store was FULL of cannabis paraphernalia, display cases full. There was no question that pertained to this, and no optional box to share additional observations. I snuck the info into one of the comment boxes. I’m sure the client would want to know that, right?

I agree about the birds and the snake. As long as the birds are not near food prep area, I wouldn’t sweat it. But a snake—-I owned a snake—-not a gas station pet. Too many people would be freaked out by that, for sure.

And make sure the bird and the snake are not next to each other, either.

Bye, bye, Birdie!

I WOULD SEND AN EMAIL TO THE SCHEDULER.. THIS COULD BE AGAINST THEIR RULES. THOUGH NOT NEAR FOOD/PREP, BIRDS STILL CAN CARRY INFECTIOUS DISEASES.
