I believe there is a huge amount of work available if you're interested in shopping the complete metroplex (Dallas, Tarrant and all contiguous counties). If you are willing to take all types of jobs, you will find multiple offers every day. I hear about high paying shops, but frankly I rarely see them. I had a total of 32 last year that paid $25.00 or more (not counting reimbursements). That's out of a total of 591. However, I don't do video shopping or apartments, which would have increased the number of better offers. Fine dining shops don't appeal to me because I can't put a $75.00 meal in the bank, and I won't write the report to get the meal. You, on the other hand, might love those shops and they would greatly increase your offers and fees.
Chances are you can work as much as you want. The problem is going to be getting paid a decent amount to do the work after you clear your expenses. This is not a good choice if you are able to get and hold down a full time job with benefits. This is a good choice if you want to pick and choose your jobs, control your own schedule, and work alone without supervision. I don't recommend this for regular full time employment. It's just too hard and it pays too little. If you have other income and you're looking for some extra income, this can be great.
