Starcodes works and lives in Canada so the wage would be different there. Keep in mind that many merchandising jobs do not give raises.
Drug test and driving record requirements are common as you may be driving in between stores on the clock. Comparing mystery shopping to merchandising is apples and oranges (and I do both).
I have been asked for my drivers license for every merchandising company that I have worked for (employee and IC). That is not the case for any mystery shopping companies that I have accepted assignments for.
