Back after a hiatus

I am back to mystery shopping and also posting here after a hiatus of some months and also recovering from a liver infection. I am healthy once more but could not work for awhile at the end of my break from mystery shopping. Last week I started up again and my first shop paid $20 PLUS I got a gallon of reimbursed paint out of it retailing at $27.45. Not bad in my book. I've also had a few other shops that were fairly easy and at which I scored a few other goodies below reimbursement along with cash. So I'm back at it again before I go back to banquets when my energy level returns (still kind of dragging, apparently it takes awhile after a liver infection to get your energy back).

I am also back here once more and I am hoping I am welcome - I am someone who made an issue with a scheduling company public here and that didn't go over very well so I don't know how welcome I realistically am here. I guess I'll see.

At any rate, I'm glad to be back to mystery shopping. It's making me feel productive here in this period before I go back to work I find more physically challenging. And it's often interesting in it's own right.

We are all here to learn and help each other. We can all learn from your experience with the scheduling company... Welcome back :-)

Welcome back, squire. Don't worry about if you a welcomed back by everyone. Some people have their sights set on a new target so they will be busy for quite awhile. Glad you are feeling better.

Thank You everyone for the kind words and the welcome! I really do appreciate it. And I also appreciate mystery shopping.....it's definitely a nice source of side income for me and some nice reimbursed freebies. Nice to have the energy back enough to mystery shop again.

I remember your screen name but honestly I don't remember any problem with a scheduling company that posters had a problem with. I doubt it was anything to worry about and since no one else has mentioned it I doubt anyone else remembers it either.

Welcome back. There are times that you don't know someone is gone until they return.
Take care of yourself, liver ailments is no joke.

Yes. I really liked this shop and have found a constructive use for the gallon of paint.
