gIm Mustafa Madi and I'm a mystery shopper. Companies pay me to visit shops and pretend to be an ordinary customer.
Afterwards, I report on what i saw. Was the shop tidy? Did the shop assistants smile? Could they answer my difficult questions? Were the changing rooms clean? Was there a long queue for the checkout?
10 2 1 | started when I was a student. I wanted to work part-time but I didn't want a normal job because some weeks I was too busy with my studies at college.
Mystery shopping was ideal because 15 I could choose to work during quieter weeks.
3 • Usually my work takes me to chain stores, shopping malls and department stores. But sometimes my job is to visit a 20 cinema or a restaurant. Once I had to stay the night in a hotel (in the most boring town in England!) My favourite job was when I flew to Berlin for a travel agency.
It was a lot of fun.
25 4 • Being a mystery shopper is harder than some people think. You need a good memory and good writing skills (you have just twenty-four hours to write a 1,600-word report). The most important thing is 30 to be discreet - you have to act 'normally' at all times, even when you're secretly watching people!

What do I like about my job? Well,
35 the money isn't bad. I also enjoy the variety of being a mystery shopper - it's not always as enjoyable as the trip to Berlin but it's never boring. And finally, I sometimes go back to a shop | visited 40 before. It's always great to see the service is better because then I know that my job is making a difference.
6 • The job isn't perfect, of course. Some companies don't pay you (you just get a discount on something you 'bought').
45 And sometimes there is no work for many weeks. Mystery shopping is a good way to earn extra money but it's not enough to live on.
