Is there a rom-com breaking out in the forum? smiling smiley
oh gosh, I've probably done most of this at least once. Gone to the wrong location, submitted the wrong receipt, had a picture that didn't save and had to go back to get a pic, etc.
Forgot to take pics of the food and drink before consuming. I was really enjoying that latte. I went back and bought another with my own money to photograph, and enjoy again.

I just had a shop rejected because I failed to enter an employee description. I missed the revision email because it went to spam. Ugh! Lost out on the shop fee and bought an overpriced souvenir.

For any old school 5Guys shoppers before "unlimited" data.

Wrong location. Lost money...lost payment...lost job for a while till I got.back in. I check more than religiously before I got inside now.

It was probably when I discovered during the shop that I was at the wrong location.

I was performing a grocery store shop and used self check when I should have gone to a cashier. This is a BIG error for this particular task. Fortunately, I realized as soon as I opened the report and was able to both reschedule the cashier shop AND self-assign a self check shop for the same day. So, I got paid for that day's effort and just had to shop the same store again a week later. All good & SO lucky!
I bought some extremely salty food which I had to ingest as part of the deal. When I got home I thought I blew it because I didn’t take a pic of what I was required to eat. This was in part due to indigestion and lethargy. I reported to them via phone call that I blew it by not taking a pic, and all they cared about was rescheduling it. I declined and later discovered that a pic was not required for the shop.
I did a Wal-Mart pick up today at the wrong store. I forgot that there were two Wal-marts in that city. GPS was directing me to the other Wal-Mart. Then as I was headed there, I just knew ... rescheduled it for this week.
Scheduler was more bummed than I was. LOL I guess I am buying more food. smiling smiley

Goofy. I did 7 other shops successfully today, so that's a win.
I went to do a gas station shop. I entered the name of the brand and the name of the town into my navigation software, knowing there was only one station of that brand in the town. I ended up at the refinery.
I used to put the address of my next stop into my navigation program as soon as I arrived at a shop, so I can just get in my car and go when I am finished.. Once while I was doing a shop, a guy asked for directions to his house, which was about 30 miles away. He wasn't sure which road to take. I grabbed my phone, entered his address in my navigation program to figure out the best route, and sent him on his way. When I finished myshop, I jumped in my car and drove to his house.
That's a great story, SA--you certainly thought quickly on your feet! I hope you wrote in your report how totally inappropriate the salesperson was. Questions like that are out of place, even among friends. I'm afraid I would have gotten snarky and asked what my divorce or reason for not having kids had to do with buying the car. You handled it well, I'm afraid I would not have. But, times like that may me glad to provide feedback!
I did a Wawa pizza shop and ordered the wrong way. Was supposed to do in person but used the app instead. I was so engulfed in other similar shops where I used the app for ordering food I just plain forgot this one was different. Oh, and another thing, by default, even if you think you haven't been asked, ALWAYS take pictures of your food when ordered both packaged and unpackaged. You never know

My bonehead move the other day was being HONEST in my report. I refused to purchase cabbage for the Lidl shops because it exceeds reimbursement so I take it upon myself to purchase the replacement items. Well for some reason I decided to be sassy and put in my report that I didn't buy cabbage because it was too expensive.

Well... report excluded without pay. Worst part is that it was a bonused location. My only hope is that the repost it and I do it again for an even higher fee.
The dang cabbage got ya again

1. I shopped 20 minutes too early for a dine-in shop. Even though I paid the check within the time frame and everything required was submitted, it was rejected.
2. I forgot to get a receipt for a restaurant pick-up order. I described how the service was so hectic and disorganized that it flustered me in asking for the receipt, begged for forgiveness, and it was accepted.
1 whole week, I've been trying to get out to do 5 Valero shops.. get to the first one, I never printed out the forking LOA or the leave behind forms... Grumble, @#$%&, moan...
had FG for lunch today, while running around for pre-holiday shopping before the stores get really crazy.
First time ever...that bun was hard as a rock - unusual...and they were missing some condiments...ugh....FG usually perfect but not today...
Naw Service, that would involve letting someone else touch my phone. That's not happening, at least not in this lifetime.
