Do You Take Breaks While Doing A Survey?

United States
February 2, 2023 3:55pm CST
Every since some mylotters told me about how they do surveys, I was really inspired. But I'd like to know if you take breaks during the survey, or just stick it out. I try to take short ones, but they even seem long. Not complaining mind you, just glad to be able to earn. It feels good to be home. I am just wondering if you take breaks. Or is it just me. Lol.

Rarely do I take breaks because if I do, I do not want to finish it.

@popciclecold To me they are just boring and waste of time. EVEN THOUGH when I have done them I made all right money. I just can't do them. They waste me away. lol

I get up early like 8 AM and start my day on my PC. I make my rounds of my survey sites, What I do is for example I get on Survey Junkie and try for about four surveys. If at least one gives me points I do one extra and move on to another survey site. So about 10 AM I am done with my survey sites for that day. I had a nice surprise today, I had not been on Swagbucks for some time and looked to find I could get a $5 Amazon gift card, So with the other cards I have gotten I have $20 on Amazon waiting for when I order next, I figure it is all worth it even when I cash out to PayPal, So in short everyday I make the rounds of all my survey sites.

No, I have to keep going and I do not start a survey if I know it will be a long one. The short surveys are best because there is less time for something to go wrong. On long surveys I either get screened out after answering many questions or my laptop crashes or something.

Even if I dislike it, I try to stick to it and get it over with. Some of them are fun, though.

I rarely do surveys but when I do I just stick it out, so many seem to take way too long only to tell me I don't qualify.

I take breaks from doing surveys during lunch and dinner periods since I get tired from looking at the computer screen after maybe one hour.

I don't take breaks ,if I start a survey i finish it right away. There is also time limit to finish the survey.

Usually there is a time limit, you will be locked out of the survey without any participation.

If short survey, I don't take breaks. But I won't open it at all if long surveys.

It can be hard, if not impossible to take a break doing a survey. Many even tell you you have to stick it out and complete it in one shot. I take breaks in-between servers when I do them.

The surveys I used to do gave instructions on what to do if you took a break. But taking a break was acceptable
