There are no volunteering positions, all are paid and there are background checks. The only thing on the site that it said to look for in a Census worker to verify that I do not do is carry my shoulder bag. The houses I go to are far apart so I drive and its too much of a hassle to get my bag out at every stop but its always in my car, other than that... I do everthing else.

I have met some interesting people so far...
I thought they were paid positions too so am confused about the "voluntary" thing with this man.

I know you probably are anyway, but please be careful out there!
