5 Reasons To Make SurveyJunkie Your Next Side Hustle
There are several reasons why someone might choose to have a side hustle as an online survey taker for SurveyJunkie. Here are five possible reasons:
1. Flexibility: Online survey taking allows for flexibility in terms of working hours. As a survey taker, you can typically choose when and where you want to complete surveys.

This flexibility can be particularly appealing for digital nomads or individuals seeking location-independent work.

In the video above, J.T. explains why she thinks The Great Reset is happening right now. You might be wondering, “What’s The Great Reset?” Here’s what you need to know:
Currently, there are a lot of job seekers who are miserable and unhappy with their lives. They’ve realized the pandemic has given them the work-life balance they’ve always dreamed of, and now they don’t want to let it go. They are extremely fearful of falling back into that pre-pandemic work grind and it’s stressing them out. Additionally, many of them are not in a good place financially, which only adds to the stress.
The thought of going back into the office is so terrible and stressful that people are getting stuck in their job search. When they find a job they like, they immediately tear it apart and find all the ways it’s going ruin their lives. They end up not wanting the job and have no idea what to do.
When we are stressed we make dumb decisions. We have to bring the stress level down to be able to make clear decisions. Obviously, we want everyone to live a life on their own terms and find that optimal work-life balance, but that’s never going to happen with so much negative talk about pre-pandemic life.
If this feels like you, we might be able to help! Job search is challenging, especially when you have all these negative thoughts in your head. Don’t go at this alone, find some support with Work It DAILY’s FREE resources!
