I plan on saving my paid vacation from my other job and MSing for 2 weeks full time. It is insane how much work there is out there. I am jam packed with work but am unwilling to take on anymore because I have a lighted tree with no decorations and a total of 5 presents bought because I am so busy. I volunteer on top of 2 full jobs. I volunteer because I have to for my inner spirit. My kids are older and I will pull it together for everyone. I feel bad because I can't help some of my favorite companies and schedulers out a bit more so they can enjoy the Holidays less stressed.

Does anyone share these sentiments with me?

Waiter!!!!! Bring more wine!!!!

I think that was a rant/game plan/delirium setting in. Carry on! There is nothing to see here. Happy Holidays everyone. xoxo

Using paid vacation time to do as many mystery shops as possible? Sounds like a sure-fire way to burn out. Everyone needs to take a small break smiling smiley

What's "paid vacation?"

On the scheduler's side, I have only had time to buy 1/4 of the presents for my children and family. :/ I have the same number of shops to get scheduled but due to the holidays, no one is taking ones that normally fly off the shelf. Looks like I will be working through the holidays. sad smiley

Deva- I will also check the job board to see if there's anything that I can pick up and maybe help you out smiling smiley

I haven't done any shops for Mercantile yet, but hopefully they'll give me a shot.

EDIT: I just looked and the only shops available in my area aren't due until January. I'm assuming those ones aren't a rush to get scheduled.
