Topic: Would you be able to take an additional work if required? - page 4. (Read 1012 times)

Even before the pandemic began, I used to work at home as a virtual assistant, data entry jobs and other online gigs out there. However, I am not the type of guy who is just simply relying on one income source only. I am hungry for more as long I could balance both work, family and rest, and I am not satisfied and contented yet of my income despite that I’m kinda happy.

For now I am working on a couple of companies doing ambassador stuff, sponsored Youtube videos or interviews, and also investing and playing various play-to-earn blockchain NFT games.

The unemployment rate is high in most of the developing and underdeveloped countries and it's like educated pupils are also not getting any job even after higher qualifications also and they are sitting idle due to this.Unemployment gives rise to criminal activities as youth is not working and they neee funds or money to survive and what can do for the same? Their minds get diverted to odd and illicit activities like robbery,murder and some other.The poverty is also one of the reason as to support family they need to work but jobs are not available.The government are not doing much to improve this and every time they make false promises to win the elections and once they get in power they will make policies that will benefit them.But if you say doing some sort of odd stuff then most people are not talented enough to make YouTube videos or set up their own business and need job to fulfill their needs.Bitcoin is still not acceptable here so they need fiat but what will be the source for the same.

My country is in the red zone when there is a serious covid19 epidemic today, people are confused and afraid.  All shops, cafes, services... are sealed according to government directives.  Thousands of people worry about hunger, myself included.  I have a full-time job for a telecommunications service company with a sales and service support position.  But everything seems to be frozen, unable to deploy regular services.  Corporations require employees to work from home and support wages to maintain employment.  Maybe a little luck is left with me.  But it can't last long and right now, 100% of businesses have almost deployed sales channels, promoting products and services online through social networking channels, facebook, ... In fact,  all forms of active organization put forth by the government, 2,000 soldiers.  prepare to resupply and move to red support zone.  The situation is really difficult.  As you can see, I am trying to build a balanced trajectory of time here, with any form (bounty/airdrop) to maintain income or consumption levels for individuals and families.  .

Yes, I agree to do something additional if required cause I was faced with this problem. lots of people facing This problem as like me so I am always ready to do additional work this could period.

Well, if it's a side hustle, it's probably not going to take a long time to work on, probably it's around 2 or 3 hours so I don't think it's not as disruptive as it is. Only time I consider not taking a side job is if it takes a lot of time that it competes with my main job.

Due to the impact of the epidemic, my company has been affected. In order to save costs, we work from home. Salary bonuses are affected. For a little more income, I will make some desserts for sale. I am happy to find something to do besides work.

Recently, the cryptocurrency market has improved, and it has also allowed me to make money.

In my Country, Covid19 also affect us greatly. Many people working from Cities are now jobless and returning now to their individual hometown. While still jobless for months, of course people nowadays are fond of technologies and researching for type of online generated income, like online selling etc. and now crypto is very popular just because of Axie Infinity. Many people of our country enter the world of crypto but only know axie infinity and nothing else, correct me if im wrong. But still Axie and other NFT games are of great help to my fellow countrymen, and for the managers of NFTs and bounty campaign here, Thanks for sharing ideas and creating the projects. More knowledge to share thanks.

And my Answer for Would you be able to take an additional work if required?
Of Course, as long as I can, Because I really need it.

Imagine i've been working as an HR Staff for the past 3 years, I've been assign by Payroll system of 200 employees, Data Entry and Information System and other remittances, but still not promoted roughly getting salary of 120 dollar a month. My god imagine that, its because I need it so I grab the opportunity. Can't even travel to find Job because of pandemic. That's how sad life is. Now I'm just reading and learning more about Crypto's here at bitcointalk, my account has been created way back 2017 and I just log in here time to time, I'm back in learning Because I need it. So Would you be able to take an additional work if required? Yes yes yes   

For me, as newly graduate civil engineer, the opportunities are infinite. Luckily this sector is not heavily affected by pandemic specially the rural areas project. I personally prefer rural areas to work right now rather than urban due to this pandemic. Less contact to possible covid infected ones.

Most countries right faced such struggles because of pandemic, also for my country the situation didn't went well due to health crisis. Taking an additional work related to cryptocurrency is a great alternative in order to begin a new journey of life. Right now I am looking forward to submit an early retirement on my current job, then proceed to cryptocurrency future plans. I am planning to focus with it, most specially there's a freedom to choose that leads us to our comfort zone.

We have to face the real situation that this pandemic makes people become hungry to find a good job that is why some professionals just drop their pride and take any vacant job just for the sake to have income. If we can find an extra job that was a great opportunity for you, many are still hopeless to get one and you have a chance already if that only I can carry it over and perform the task well, I should not hesitate to take it.
We need to be practical this time and we don't need to be chossy otherwise, we live nothing or to live on the sidewalk asking something.

With the digital age right now, all jobs will always be connected online so if we have skills that are in demand online, i think we should grab it by now. The pandemic will still continue so if possible, we should learn multi tasking so we can also generate profits from a lot of sources.

I think landing in 3-4 jobs will only be possible if you have enough time to do them and you have all the good resources needed to make your job be profitable. If not, better focus on the one that gives you stable income that can cater to all your family's needs.

It is not really about the nation you are living in, it is about the skills you have. There are some coders in the world who are working freelance on many many different projects at the same time and making a great amount of money as well.

I would understand that it would be quite impossible for many people to do that because we lack the skills, but for example I could technically find other jobs to do as a freelancer myself (writer), however I just do not have the time for it so I do not even look for them, I am barely keeping up with the current work let alone get another one, but technically speaking for someone else it is possible to find 3-4 different jobs. So what this means is, in this day and age, do not learn a skill that can't be turn into digital work, it just doesn't make sense at all. Find a job where you can do remotely from your PC and get real good at it and build a great resume and portfolio to show others and get jobs.

At this point, the most important part is how much free time you have after the work. If it is not much, then there is no way that I can do an additional job. Otherwise, it depends on the money I'm going to earn while doing the additional work. If it isn't worth it, then there is no point in just consuming ourselves to earn just a little more.

You will get additional work, as long as you look for it seriously, like being in this forum is not just discussing. At least some income can be obtained from it. So you have extra money when the economic conditions are unstable in every country. Then your other income is working as a transportation driver, that's very cool, even though there are still passenger limits which are currently a new rule to prevent virus transmission. Even though it is detrimental to the driver, for the safety of all parties you can definitely solve it.

If I am able to yes, extra money in this world made by the capitalist is always a weelcome thing for me, better not starve to death or you end up with nothing in the end because you don't want extra work even if you're available. I love making money, all the things that I've bought is a symbol that I am grateful that I am making money.

the situation in my country is very stressful and the city center has a pretty high death rate, they completely ban people from the streets and now there are a lot of unemployed people including me, but I got a job plow online games to earn money like axie. extra income in addition I also became a youtuber, currently my income is quite stable, how about you?

Well, my goodness in our country it is still very difficult to find a job, in addition after the pandemic, of course, the solution is easy to solve. There is a reduction in the workforce because companies do not want to hire them with large expenses during a pandemic where factories operate less than foreign parties.

The existence of technology, crypto trading, being an online shop seller, and various other investments may help young people, but not for those who are over 50 years old, they are more into the daily trading sector. The lack of attention from the government that provides comprehensive assistance makes us more unstable in controlling the macroeconomy.

Finally, those who are clueless will find it very difficult to control the situation after the pandemic.

I believe everyone needs another job aside from investing and trading. Investing can bring a high amount of profits but still having a stable income aside from investing can help you mentally to make sure if you will get N dollars per month and this will help you to do not have any stress about incomes, taxes, bills, rents, and food prices. If you ask me I would say that I do have another remote job paying me good per month to pay the bills and that's why I won't have any problem even if I get nothing from investing.

First of all, thanks for asking. Not everyone does this kind of idea to ask other people how they are doing or what their situation is.
It's really bad. Thankfully, I also have the skills to make some money online in a legal way and then there are savings.
My only problem is I don't want to take anything from those savings which are in Bitcoin and Ethereum. I want it to rot for the future.
Now, I am seeking other ideas to make more money. I have a lot of spare time but just cannot find what I want to do for that excess time.

I guess I am still one of the lucky individuals but I also feel for those who don't.
We just don't have the capability or enough resources to help them which is the sad part.

That has also been the case in my country, getting a job has been a really difficult thing. Even fresh graduates no longer put hope in their certificates, once they graduate most of them look forward to starting their businesses and not waiting for the government to give them jobs, and while most of them who have no ideas on how they will start a business ends up in a pretty condition.

And just like you have pointed, the coronavirus pandemic made everything worse, it seemed like it turned the country upside down, a country that was already trying hard not to fall. A lot of people lost their jobs because of this, so imagine how bad this is.
