I found in internet, there are so many people working in internet as their regular job; for business, trading, investments, and the like. Some persons asked me to join any investment and business online, but i'm not sure with those kind of business.
For me, working online (such as for mylot), is only part-time job. I use internet like mylot to share my comments and ideas and i enjoy being paid, and when i back home, i just alone in my room because other member in my fam are not around.
I prefer to work in laboratory as medical laboratory scientist since i'm taking my med lab science program.
How about you? Do you like to work for regular job in workplace (office, or else)
or working online?

I have done both and like to have a mix of them. Working at home is nice because you can set your own schedule, work from your bed if you like and not fight the traffic on the way to work. Working outside of the home is nice sometimes too because of the face to face interaction you get with others.

I prefer to work in workplace,i only think working online only is part-time work.In my opinion,every day go to work makes me feel substantial.Going outside and breathing the freash air every morning,coming home when the sky turn dark.working on line,you must sitting in front of computer all day,i think it is hard for me.
actually,there are many jobs that working on line.more and more works must need people to work on line.With internet,we could know a lot of things,new or old, entertainment or sports or ecnomic and so on.people now more depend on internet.but i think we all need to work out.not only sit in front of computer.

Yes, there are a lot of investments and businesses on the net and some may have been a scam. Some of it could be true and you may end up with an earning. Nevertheless, I prefer to work online because I don't really like to go out much, let alone traveling to go to a workplace.
I have worked in workplace before and immediately decided to quit because of time management. I like to have my own time for me to become proficient when it comes to my job and not pressured because of time management.

i prefer working online in my workplace. :) hehe honestly i work in mylot at the office too....
kidding aside, i would prefer to work than in online.. cause i find it to be more secured. also i get medical benefits and all extra pay with it.
maybe i have just not found an online game worth for me to leave my current job.

I like to work alone and for myself. I don't like to work under pressure, there is too much of hassles; too much of chasing this persons to that persons; and too much of responsibilities. I quit my job two years ago (I was a field manager of marketing research company), now I stay at home; take care of my family, my son and work online using my free times to make some extra money for my shoes or clothes or my son's pampers:)

I hated working in a real work place. I have had a handful of jobs over the years, but I love working online. I don't make a full time wage yet, but it is going up. I am making about 500 a month right now. It has been going well, and I expect to make a lot of money!

There are many advantages of working online. You save on transportation money to and from the office, you save on your meals and snacks that you usually have in the office, you don't have to dress up in corporate attire and make yourself presentable, you can work at your own pace and only when you feel like working, you can squeeze in nap times as often as you want and work on flexi time. Another big advantage for me, being a mother of two kids, I can keep an eye on them while working online... something I wouldn't be able to do if I worked in an office.

I work for a company but I work online from home.
I do like working at home as I have 2 young children and I can do evening shifts as a chat moderator whilst they are asleep. I do miss the 'regular office job' sometimes tho and the contact with other employees.

I would love to quite my job and work online if i could find something that would pay. Mylot is great for posting and talking but not to great with the pay.I don't know if i am doing smoething wrong or what. I have been on mylot for 2 days now and only made $.37 cents. I was on here for 3 hours just yesterday.I don't know what to do.

I prefer working on line, as opposed to working in an office. When I work on line, I have a lot more freedom to do as I please, as opposed to doing what someone else tells me to do. I am better able to do things MY WAY!

Hi,
I would like to work online but at present I get more paid from the outside work and there is also job satisfaction. I do hope online jobs are plenty but most of people do know how to do it well including myself. I do hope awareness and publicity may help a lot to go for online jobs.

If I was offered a job to work online I would take it. I really don't like working in a place where I have a certain time I have to come in for work and wear the work uniform. If I could work online I would be able to bring my work with me anywhere I go.

I have my side jobs that I do on my home computer as you do. However, I also have a full-time job that's about a four-mile drive from my house. It's not a long drive, but I prefer to work out of the comfort of my own home on my own computer. I'd rather work from home, but I know right now it's better for me to go to an actual job in order to make more money. I don't think I would make as much right now working for home although I know many people do work from home. I work on the computer all day at work anyway, so it works well for me!
