Hi cream97, i think the fastest way still is using your money for investment, to earn more money from there. Like what people always said: making money from the money you have. But of coz you need to put some effort on it as it is very risky.

Right now I have no job so I cannot comment about that but I do something like it's a job and it's the internet. I like it but I am not making money from it. Now that I have discovered mylot I have been doing it like it's a job which is cool too.

No need to worry too much. At the time being, maybe you think that actually you can't really earn much from what you doing now from Internet. Believe in yourself, you will get satisfaction from what you doing one day later. As you have already said that this is a cool job to you.

My current job is okay. It is really boring. The company has been super slow. However, when we are busy, we feel underpaid. At least I get to MyLot when I have nothing else to do.

I enjoy my work very much and it affords me a good living as well. I work in Tavern. I cook, somedays, serve other days. I really like the variety, and the people can be a bunch of fun. We had a Crawfish boil Saturday. It can get very busy, and sometimes the hours are alot. still I must say it is one of the best jobs I ever had.

Hi, very happy to hear that you have got a good job. In my opinion, i do feel that people around us play an important role in our working environment. Our feeling can just easily been influenced by them. If we can cope with them, then is OK; else, everyday just feel unhappy/demotivated when going to work.

Im partly satisfied and not satisfied.
Im partly not satisfied because, I'm bored. I can't apply my knowledge and skills. I can't compete. There's no actually challenge. I don't like some of my co workers, but that's okey I can still manage. I'm too young for this job. My abilities and knowledge are now stagnant. I feel like my job is not competitive as other jobs. One, that entails me to learn a lot.
Im satisfied because I earn a lot without doing something that's so hard. I just relax. I'm complacent.
My time is flexible.

I see, i see. Welcome to the real working life. I believe most of the people having this common feeling. Looks like really hard to get a job that we fully satisfy with. No matter how good is it, there is still some minor problem that make us feel unhappy with it.

My job's OK, felt like am just working at home. Got no problem with the bosses and co-workers. I can browse the net as long as am done with my job. Few rules.
Am I satisfied? No. For the following reasons:
I want to grow.. professionally. I want recognition.. I want to know what's my worth. In my current job, there's no such thing as promotion. I can't go up.. i can't replace my bosses! lolz!
I don't receive much benefits like what other companies offer. [no need to expand on this, I might explode!] :D
Am no longer happy. =(
Now why am I still stuck working here? Again, I have my reasons. No need to enumerate, it's a long list! haha! And some of my reasons are not excuses! :D
Actually, am making some steps to work in another company. But it's not that easy.. I have to polish first my brain [it is needed to the job am going to apply for], I just think my brain's not working as it was before. hahaha! oh man, am getting dumb! Ö
One thing's for sure, am not going to allow myself to be stuck here forever! yeah! :D

Yes, i agree with you. No point to stay in a company which you don't have chance to grow. Nobody want to ends up like after work for 5 years, still holding the junior level position. My situation quite similar to yours, i have been told that there is only a promotion after you have been worked for them for at least 5 years, somemmore this is not confirm that everyone will get promoted. However, as mentioned by you, it's not easy to make a move, especially when you have other commitment like car, house, etc.

Well, I enjoy what I'm doing currently. I have a registered IT company but I really do intend to expand it further. I really do like elctronics & all these gadgets. Well, it's a passion for me. Without that, I guess it's very hard to work

It's really a waste of time to stay in a company where you can't learn anything especially if you still young. This can play some role for us to find a new job. Imagine the interviewer ask you: What have you learn in your previous company? What are you doing in your previous place? All these can affect you whether can get the new job or not.
