I have a question for those of you that have worked doubles. OK, I did a Supertarget double. I worked 3.5 hours for both of them. There was also a $12 incentive for both. How will the pay work??
This Choxie thing has me baffled. I just got an email from TMT saying the event is high priority and will be at nearly every Target nationwide. They listed available stores and many are the sames ones listed by Spi today. What gives?
I would not be happy to find out somebody else booked the same job I did through another agency.
For those of you that have the same store booked for the same event for two agencies, what will you do if one isn't canceled? Will you set up two tables? Only one, but fill out two forms? Contact one of the agencies and tell them of the confusion? I know when I told my TMT contact that SPi was starting to offer Kmart events, she was surprised and upset. She said even though they were both agencies under MC, they were still competitors. And I'm sure TMT is very protective of Target.
It was also supposed to be for that Winn Dixie survey thing that was 6 hours. I finished and was only there a little over 2 hours. I think I read on here that someone else got paid for the whole 6 hours, even though they were only there 3. Can anyone confirm this??
Also, on the checks where it says JOB and has the numbers under it, those numbers don't match my event numbers. So, I am not even positive that is the job being paid for. Do the numbers match up for the rest of you??
Thanks for any help.

The last four digits of the job number are the date For example my last paycheck was for events on September 22nd--the last 4 numbers are 0922. That is how I figure out which check corresponds to which event.
Hope that helps a little.

MC VAULT at Grand Opening: 40 MINUTES to find my 3 kits. I'm NOT a fan. I got to the store extra early. Got passed around to several people who didn't want to help me. Not that they were really busy, just didn't want to help. Finally stumbled about 3 "managers" who were looking at the kits in grocery backroom & wondering what to do with them. They were no longer in the one big vault box. It was just a stack of MC kit boxes they were opening & looking at. I could have gone today without the 2 kits for double, but I REALLY wanted to make sure I had those 300 Cottenelle puppies. I have them in MY POSSESSION now for Saturday.
My tip: bring your own tongs. The cheap plastic ones in the totino's pizza roll kit broke. Making it hard to flip them & serve them.
Juicy Juice: ran out in 1.5 hrs. Thank goodness I only had to "promote" up till 3.5 hrs and NOT 5 hrs.
I'll save you all from hearing how the rest of the day went. A bit reminiscent of BRivers event with the "manager with attitude". Grand openings bring out LOTS of managers from every dept & every store who want to impress I guess. Not impressed with one in particular. Made me feel like I was 16 yrs old by how I was spoken to & ordered around. I actually said "I don't work for you."
Off to do University Medical Wrinkle Free today.........will I be snoozing for 5 hours or what? Was supposed to receive 300 brochures to hand out......only got 25
Wish it was another 4 hour event instead of 5!
