I was one of the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands that were effected by the government shutdown. So...I had to get creative. Anyone who knows me knows I can't sit idle to save my life. Really...I don't think I could even if it saved my life. I have wwwwwaaaaaayyyyyyy to much energy.
So the first 3 days I sat at home....I sat, and I sat, and I sat. I had to do something. I started searching the web. What better invention every existed? The world wide web. You know you can search ANYTHING!
I had to find a way to make some quick cash. I knew I could babysit (I'm practically a professional babysitter). I registered for some childcare websites. Then my sister mentioned secret shoppers. She had told me about it for apartment shops but I wanted more than that.
Over my time as a secret shopper, I will share with you some of my experiences, and what I liked and didn't like and WHY! Why is the all important questions. Customer service is huge and I think many places are struggling to find good employees who understand what good, no GREAT, customer service is.
Join me on this journey. It's been a fun ride so far and I look forward to what all is to come.
And just in case you're wondering. I was off for 3 days because I was not essential, but then magically I was essential and worked the rest of the furlough. But even still, I think good came out of it because now, I can make a little extra cash and doing something with my down time.
As I always said with my peeps overseas "we gotta find the silver lining". Secret Shopper was mine during the government shutdown.
