I'm a professional employee who currently works at an IT company (Company confidential of course. Apologies, I can't say it). I'm on the side of Software jobs particularly on Software Quality Assurance. Our monthly workloads depends on the client we are engaged in. Sometimes, amount of works are so overwhelming to the point that we need to extend hours working just to finish our daily tasks and worst is we need to work on weekends. There are also times that capacity is just right for us to finish all of it in a couple of hours (We're doing nothing on the remaining of our 9 hrs. in the office). But the best of those "times" is when we're really doing nothing at all due to some issues like system maintenance, citrix connection problems, user credential issues and other hardware or software-related problems. On periods like this, we're so lucky that we have days to enjoy without working, but the sad part is we still need to go to office and pretend we're working. Sitting there doing nothing while waiting for the issue to be fixed produces boredom. Yeah! That’s a reality on the world of a software engineer.
And guess what? At this moment, I'm totally don't have workloads and I'm like this for already 4 days. From first day with no tasks, I just face my phone the whole time. Surfing and browsing, reading my Facebook newsfeed, playing games installed, checking photos in Instagram and merely using other social media apps. I realized that I'm using my time with non-sense. Sorry for the word but its’ true and it's also boring. Yes, I can get an entertainment out of it but for what? I don't want to live or use my precious time with things I don't get something in return. So I concluded that I must do something that I can get a benefit from it. So I decided to search on the internet on ways how to make money online. Most of the methods mentioned are PTC ads, freelancing, data entry, blogging, buy & sell, online surveys, writing, translating, etc. With these lot of means to earn money online, I'm really confused and can't decide which method is the best way. I also searched reviews to every sites that offer these online jobs but mostly are scam. Other site are legit like oDesk but it’s so hard to get client if you're a beginner.
After couple hours of researching what to try for an extra income, I concluded to try writing blogs. And yes, this is my first blog. I know it sucks. (Laughing emoticons). The next problem I have right now is the topic I will write. What issue or theme my readers want to read? What subject they are interested? To what matter will I focus the content of my blog? It's really hard to decide. If you have any suggestions, please enter your thoughts on the comment box below. I would appreciate it. Thanks a lot! (Readers might also can get some help or ideas on your comments 😊)
...On my next blog, maybe I can talk about the topic which I will probably focus the entire content of my blog site. (Sorry if this first blog obviously didn't gave any info instead just asking for help. Though, I'm promising that I will be a help on succeeding blogs. 😊)
