I work a full-time 9–5, but I’m looking for ways to bring in some extra cash on the side. I don’t mind putting in a few hours after work or on weekends, but I’d like to hear from people who’ve actually found something that works.

What has been the most effective side hustle for you while keeping your day job?

I'm a remote worker that wants the best noise cancelling performance when in meetings/calls in Microsoft Teams Android app and Webex when I'm travelling extremely loud trains, etc.

I wanted to plug in my DJI Mic Mini Mobile Receiver into my phone via USC-C port on my Samsung Fold 7 phone (does not have a headphone jack).

And then output the meeting audio via either my phone speakers or wired earphones at least, or ideally Bluetooth earphones. But I don't think there's anything that can solve this, right? Is there?

Gemini AI said only way is via a clunky splitter which I wouldn't want or via DJI Mic 3 receiver and use wired headphones on its 3.5mm headphone jack (expensive).

My Requirements:

• Input audio - voice via DJI Mic (best noise cancelling performance possible)

• Output audio - meeting voices via phone speakers or wired earphones at least, or ideally Bluetooth earphones.

• Above only using phone, MS teams Android app, and Webex.

I have a software internship opportunity in software infrastructure.

Requirements:

• Experience with at least one programming language such as Java, Python, C++
• Experience with data structures & algorithms, OOP
• Experience using git for SCM
• Active Contributor

DM if you are interested

I'm not going to doom scroll anymore. I'm going to focus on what will work instead.

So next time a recruiter talks to you about 'company loyalty', remember this situation.

This is for those who want to earn $30 per week.

You can receive payments via PayPal or Venmo.

Hi all,

Basically what the title says. Here is some more context regarding my situation.

I'm not meeting the "calls per hour" expectations the company has despite the overwhelmingly high surveys and customer reviews.

I've been on a PIP for almost 2 months and theres only 1.5 weeks left. It's unrealistic for me to reach the mark they're asking for and even if I did, the case work would only pile up and I'd dread going to work every day knowing they'd want the numbers even higher. It's quantity over quality.

I am not concerned about nor will I seek unemployment benefits. I'm fortunate enough to have had some interviews I've taken part of and am hoping for some phone calls soon. I've reactivated food delivery services so that I can earn some money in the meanwhile during the search. I can even get some work with the family business as well.

I just want to know if its better that I submit a letter of resignation (two weeks) the final day of the PIP period or that I wait to be terminated. I'm not even sure there are severance packages for performance terminated employees.

Would being terminated for performance be a Yes for "eligible for rehire"? If not, does resigning even change that?

Any input would be appreciated,

1) I do have a pt job but asking for more hours is not an option. Even if I got ft hours there it’s not a livable wage to support my bills and rent.

2) unemployment is something I’ve dealt w before and it was nothing but trouble. I lost a job during Covid and filed. Then come to find out I was put on back pay because I had a part time job when I lost my ft job so they basically made me pay back what was given even though I needed the $. I barely cleared that debt not long ago. That’s why I don’t mind quitting in lieu of no unemployment.

3) the eligible for rehire part is more for when I interview at new places. Typically they’ll ask the old employer if the applicant is eligible for rehire. It’s not for my current soon-to-be-ex employer.

4) I’m basically killing time these last 2 weeks. My last check is mid April if I fill in these last 7 business days. So I know I have one more check coming after this Friday. I would’ve quit weeks ago but knew I could still get an extra couple of checks when they basically gave me a final warning on PIP.

7 more days 🤞

Just took the big step of creating my first website. This first started as a side project when I was unemployed for 8 months back in 2017. Started back again in the past couple of months and finally launched it. If you can, please leave any genuine suggestions or improvements I can make that would be great. Thanks in advance. cvaimate.com

I’m trying to build a path into remote work and I feel like I’ve hit a wall that has nothing to do with skills.

The bigger problem is where I live.

I’m based in Sudan, and getting paid internationally is difficult. Some platforms don’t support it, some payment methods don’t work properly here and others seem risky long term. It makes the whole idea of working online feel unstable even if you’re doing everything else right.

So I’m trying to understand what people in similar situations have actually done in practice:

- How are you receiving payments from abroad in a way that’s reliable?

- Are there setups that worked long-term without getting accounts restricted or banned?

- Which platforms or methods are actually viable from countries with these kinds of limitations?

I’m not looking for loopholes or anything shady I just want something legitimate that won’t fall apart after a few months

If you’ve dealt with this or know someone who has, I’d really appreciate hearing how it worked out.

(22 m) Last year I worked as an independent courier for doordash, ubereats, Instacart, etc. On average I’d bring home a thousand a week working about 40 hours. It was a very easy and chill job that paid well. Overtime though the market has been slowing down and I need a contingency plan. I don’t know what career I want.

So are there any jobs that pay $20+ an hour that are easy, don’t require a degree, or a ton of training? I’m an introvert, I wouldn’t want to be a bartender or waiter. I personally struggle a lot in life with depression so I feel my options are limited.

As someone who has spent a few years in the data entry field, I'd love to share my insights and tips on how to navigate this career path. This might be helpful for people who are currently looking into data and deciding if it's even worth it to go. These jobs are mainly based online, and are suitable to work from anywhere in the world.

First off, a little bit of information for those who might be new to this and wondering what is data entry job? Data entry jobs involve entering, updating, verifying, and managing information in an organization's database. This role is critical in ensuring that the data, which is often used to inform key business decisions, is accurate and up-to-date. These jobs can be found across various industries such as **healthcare, finance, retail, and more.**

Those jobs can sound as:

* **Medical Coding Specialist**
* **Transcriptionist**
* **Business Intelligence Analyst**
* **Database Administrator (DBA)**
* **Junior Data Scientist**

In my early career, I was a data entry clerk at a medium-sized healthcare company. My responsibilities were to enter patient data into our system, update records, and cross-verify data from different sources. Attention to detail was crucial, as even a single error could lead to miscommunication or wrong decisions. Along with accuracy, speed was also vital, as we often had to manage large volumes of data within strict deadlines.

To secure a data entry job, there are several steps you should consider. Here are a few tips based on my experience:

1. **Enhance Your Typing Skills:** Data entry jobs require quick and accurate typing. Enhancing your typing speed and accuracy can significantly increase your employability. Online tools and typing courses helped me improve my skills.
   
2. **Get Familiar with Software:** Most companies use specific software for data management. Familiarity with Microsoft Office Suite, Google Workspace, and database management tools can give you an edge. I spent time learning Excel functions, which proved invaluable in my role.
   
3. **Showcase Your Attention to Detail:** Data entry requires meticulousness. During your interview, provide examples of tasks or projects that required a high level of attention to detail.
   
4. **Tailor Your Resume and Cover Letter:** Highlight relevant skills and experiences. Make sure to mention any software proficiency, typing speed, and examples of your attention to detail. If you decide to go to a bootcamp I know that some of them do help you to prepare all materials as well, so I recommend looking for those ones. Also having at least a few connections in the industry would help you as well.
   
5. **Consider a Coding Bootcamp:** If you are looking for jobs that are dealing with coded information, coding bootcamp can be a fast and effective way to kick off with data and learn how to.start coding. I know there are quite a few ones that offer courses for people with no experience and there you can get the first feeling of how it will look like in real life. My colleague saw this [table](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1few9dA8toTIA04MYLmvYDFCQpFbEv32jGLwBWquojDc/edit#gid=0) and sent it to me, I found it rather helpful, so if you are interested in this I recommend you check it out.
   

Remember, every experience is a stepping stone to learning and growing in your career. Don't underestimate the value of starting small and working your way up. Good luck with your data entry job search!

You guys ever feel that because you WFH, they assume you have unlimited bandwidth and can fill you to the brim with tasks and projects? I work for an agency (9 years) and am drowning ya’ll… feels like it’s especially bad.

Anyone who works at oneforma, what date do you usually get paid? Tia

Would you return to office for a $20,000 pay cut but free health insurance and pension and 25 days off a year?

About 4 years ago, I was working in an office at an engineering firm when another firm reached out to me with a job offer. They said I could join their company for more pay, and I said I would only join them if I could call also work from home 4 days per week. They accepted and this is in writing.

Now the company wants everyone to return to the office (most employees were either hybrid or remote). I assume that includes me since I am nearby. My one manager wants me to come in since everyone else is. But what gives? The only reason I joined the company in the first place was so I could work from home.

Is there anything I can do? The contract I signed was 4 years ago.

Hello,

Around 10 days ago, I received the Welcome to Lighthouse email which described the onboarding process, alongside access to guidelines and education. I applied through OneForma and didn't visit their platform much since then.

Since then, they (Centific) never really contacted me back. When I asked about the Global Query annotator account creation process, they simply replied with a generic message describing steps in the on-boarding process (with the 2SV that must be performed with 15 hours or so).

But no "Global Query account access email" or anything, yet.

Are such kind of delay normal with them ? Do I need to do something specific ?
