What would your ideal online job look like?

You are offered to get paid for whatever you choose to do online as long as you do it for 8 hours daily, 5 times a week. Just like a real daily job. The job has to be at least little bit believable and work-demanding, so you cannot pick something as simple as watching random videos/movies or play a game.
My take on this is,I would probably pick doing online trivia quizzes (something in a similar manner of Jeopardy or Who wants to be a millionaire type of shows) and expand my knowledge every day while simultaneously getting paid for it :). I am a big geography/history nerd, so I think I would have one hell of a shift, time passes fast when you do something that you enjoy.

If a site like this paid more, then I might put in the effort to dedicate a full eight hours to it. Posting online like this is easy, not too overly demanding on my body (because I know when to take a break), and I'm making a contribution and possibly helping someone in the process.

Yeah I forgot to mention, if the hourly wage offered was at least close if not equal to a real full eight hours job haha. You are right, besides the earning and having fun part,posting online, especially here on myLot, it is one way of releasing yourself and sorta like your personal blog post.

@eshtreef Yes, exactly. I find it quite rewarding to post, especially if I can help someone out while doing it. The money doesn't hurt, either.

Oh nice one. Most semi-professional/professional programmers are doing it anyways for 8+ hours a day, and some without the getting paid part. I have always admired programming because generally it can be quite stressful especially if you hit a brick wall with those codes. It requires dedication and patience of a saint

My real job doesn't give me minimum wage... I would write articles if I could

@eshtreef If I get a different job it will. Technically I dont have a job because I am a contractor for delivering catalogues so they can pay me peanuts and noone will care.
