keep it like a shhhh!

For those about to hound, we salute you (SECRETLY):

Those interested can now get half-off tickets by participating in Greyhound's mystery traveler program. While the details of my participating are highly sensitive and not to be repeated here...you can count on some faithful reconnaissance coming soon.

Your convoluted mission:

Mystery Traveler

Thank you for participating in our Mystery Travel program! Your feedback about your
trip is valuable to Greyhound, so please tell us about the good and the bad. Make sureyou read the questions and become familiar with them before your trip. Do not at any time tell any Greyhound employee that you are a mystery traveler; we need you to
keep your anonymity at all times in order to obtain the most accurate results.
Please take these questions (and a pen) with you on your trip and complete your
answers as soon as you can. Do not fill this out where any Greyhound employees
could see you. You might find that completing as many questions as possible on the
bus is the best time to avoid detection. The more detail you can provide is always
appreciated. When the answer is “no,” please try to provide us with more information.
Once you arrive at your destination, you will have 7 days to complete the survey online.After the 7th day, we will not accept the survey and you will not get half of your ticketprice back. To process your survey online, please go to
http://www.greyhound.com/mysterytraveler. When you process your survey online, you
will receive a confirmation that the form is validated and you will get half of your ticketprice back. If you took a round trip, please tell us only about your return tripOnce again, thank you and enjoy your trip!
