There are many different types of people and from many different places around the world here in mylot. I am actually interested to know what each of us do for a living ? Do many of us here in mylot are home-based business owners or are there more who are employed and work for others. For me, I am an Account Manager working for a Singapore based company and it's a day job from Mon to Fri, and rest during the weekends. But, I am working towrads building my own business is consulting and coaching. So, how about you ? what do you do for a living ?

Hi, well i am actually interested knowing u here in mylot. Some people wont be wasting time to know personal info like that and concentrate more on earning here. I am a new member here, i work as an accounting assistant here in phillipines. I know ur profession gets wow!!, compare to mine. Aside from earning monthly salary, i like to find other earning opportunities, i tried to sell bags, foods, and it was not enough. Till i met someone online and told me to join here, i thought all of this earning oppurtunities are scams till she told me she earned like this and that amount. And i said wow,

That's true and I am also finding other sources of income all the time. In fact with the economy crisis now, our jobs may not be secure at all. Nice knowing you and happy mylotting.

I don't do much. I am waiting for my doctors to make a choice in what is next with my back. Then hopefully I can find me a job. I can no longer work the job I had, I was a machine operator, working for Nivea. I need a job where I don't sit to long, don't stand to long, don't walk to much. This will get interesting. hahaha! But, time will tell. In the mean time, I have my computer. I have tried to make money from home, but it does not work for me. I don't have the money to invest, and from no money comes no money. So, I will have to leave it at that. Take care.

I so sorry to hear about your back problems and hope your doctor can come back to you with some solution soon. Maybe you can find some good ways to make money on the internet or do some light and easy odd-jobs that will generate some income for you. Take Care.

freelance writer - my day job is freelance writing.
I'm a freelance writer. That's why I've a lot of time here on MYLOT and surfing the net. Right now i'm working on my first novel. When I'm blocked or can't get any inspiration, dropping by here in mYLOt and surfing the net gets my juice flowing.

I am currently working as a Calltaker/Dispatcher for Yellow Cab here in the Seattle, WA USA area. I have been here for over 2 1/2 yrs. now and for the most part, I really enjoy my job. I take phone calls coming in from people looking for a Cab ride, and then input all of their information and move on to the next call. It is always nice knowing I am hopefully providing a decent service for them as well.

I work at a warehouse. We ship out boxing equipment. I ship orders being shipped out UPS or FedEx. I can't say that I love my job, but I can think of a lot of other jobs that I wouldn't want so I will say I'm satisfied with the job I have because I know it could be worse.

I am an Accounting graduate but I resigned for being an employee. I decided to be in sales. From tupperware to Insurance underwriter, other direct sellings but I stayed long at real estate business. I got widowed when my children were in the primary schools and my commissions selling houses and lots sent them to their colleges able to have them grown ups with quite stable jobs. Had to quit working when needed to take care of my aging mom, When he was laid down to rest, my children don't want me to go back working that's when the time I learned to go internet. I go back with the real estate, however, just part time as I still want to earn a living. I just sold a 1.5M house and lot and am so happy about it. I still have time with my pc and earning though not quite big anyway am enjoying getting along with online friends.

This is an interesting question. I have always been wondering what all people in mylot are actually doing in their real life. Right now, I am working as a part time for my friend. In my non-working hours, I am thinking about my dream and reading and making some plans.
