I have been mystery shopping since May,2006, I've lost my job of 7 years in a unfair way, I got Fibromialgya and a boss that thought that I was only making excuses to miss work, even though I was the fastest worker (did the job of 3 people literally) and broke their production standards when I got the chronic fatigue for almost 1 month, she found the 1st excuse to let me go.
She was wrong, I was able to collect unemployment, I allways worked even as a kid to have my own money and it was very umpleasant for me to just sit at home and do nothing, at the same time I still don't have the feeling that I could last past the probation period at a job without getting sick.
My husband heard thec comercial about Mystery Shoplink.com and told me to call, I was not sure if this would be another scam.
To this day and even if I get a job I would keep doing this, the fact that I will not lose my jobs even if I find a job I will still do this, I have over 80 shops (not counting the ones I forget to put on my profile) and my latest job had a pay of $300.00.
I try every offer I get and if it does not work out is ok, I drop it and look at another company.
I canot say that is the way I make a living but is not because is not possible rather because of my illness that I can't make more money with it.
My level is now (Senior) and I guess it only gets better as I get more experienced.
