NewGuy2005 51 #1 Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) If so, I'm curious to hear what your experience has been. I've been doing it since mid-August and it's been a mixed bag. Some really nice people and some really awful people, but mostly people that don't want to be bothered. Edited to add: By not wanting to be bothered, I mean they are not going to participate in the process under any circumstance. If you would prefer, just PM me.

RonD1120 58 #2 September 22, 2020 I was an enumerator for about 3 wks. I resigned to protect my wife's health risk. She was afraid I would bring C-19 home. My experience was very positive. However, I live in an area that has a friendly, positive outlook. I had 3 refusals to participate from folks in vacation rentals. I surmised that they were up here in the mountains for illegal or illicit motives and did not want to take a chance on being identified. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats probably a good summation about people in general on an issue which they most likely see doesn't directly put a buck in their pocket. The gumment could increase response rates if respondents were entered in a Loto to win $10 million. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
