Who among you have job suit with your hobby ? Sometimes people do something for their living because they must do it not in full heart and sometimes hate their job, but they can't avoid it because they do it for the living. But... seems that people who has job suit to the hobby, more enjoy, besides get money, also get satisfaction in it. Are you the person who has a job suit to your hobby ? Or do you have something you will do base on your hobby as your job?

i love making crafts and it inspires me more if the people i make crafts for appreciate it. it's not my main job but i do this souvenir making as part-time job. i started with the gifts i can give to people. not only that i spend less, it was more personalized. then some friends asks me to do souvenirs for them. they provide the materials and i simply put the stuff together. from these, i earn extra money. i already experience the satisfaction of being able to make one, i also get to be paid from it.

You made me thinking of my madness about being a housewife. I am a qualified person and always wanted the job but its true that my qualification doesnot match with my hobbies.

Please don't get mad :) Sometimes qualified in job doesn't mean that you like to do the job, sometimes people do it because earning money. But develop our hobbies as a job maybe more enjoy and also can earn money. I do believe that being a housewife also the best achievement as a woman :) maybe if your kids getting bigger, you can have spare time to doing your hobby as your job, now you can try to prepare, the more longer time, the more good preparation I think :)

Right now, I'm working as Technical Support Specialist in a callcenter here in the Philippines. I love my job because it's part of my being a programmer and my field of being an I.T. student. It doesn't give me a hard time when it comes to helping customers over the phone and do troubleshooting instructions with them since I'm also experiencing it with my real life situation. I like the people I'm working with and the working environment that we have because during days-off we would bond together as a team and do some activities together. We make sure we just don't work, earn money all the time. We take time to have fun too.
