    I don't know about managers but I know that the following companies, among many others, use mystery shoppers:

    Tesco, Dunnes Srores, Unicare Pharmacies, Dublin Airport Authority, Boyle Bookmakers, Paddy Power, Red Bull, Chadwicks, Cafe Kylemore, Major Hotels.

    I've done mystery shopping and its a fairly well used thing especially with larger chains of stores. Some use it to check quality of service, some use it to compare their services to competitors, others use it to ensure that their franchiese are operating within the law.. not serving alcohol to minors etc..

    Its a good way to make an extra few quid, but usually not regular enough to live off..

    If you every need anyone around the Dublin area ilean, give me a shout..

    I used to be a deputy manager in a hotel in the north. We setup a program of mystery shoppers. It was very useful. If done correctly it can be very valuable.

    I also worked in Woolworths when I was younger, they used them quite a bit.

    I have sent a PM.
