My opinion doesn’t really matter, does it? I’m just another data entry operator working from home. Australia is like a huge pot full of employment opportunities and I’m nothing more than a grain of rice floating in the sauce. The data I enter can be broken down to the individual key strokes I type and can be compared to the drops of water it takes to fill a swimming pool. My existence is insignificant and the things I write about are less important than dirty dish water. That, my friends, is the life of your average data entry operator who works from home in Australia.

A lot of people are searching for a legitimate self employment situation but only a handful of lucky individuals will ever go on to find the online job of their dreams. I made my own luck when I developed my own career out of nothing. I publish my own ideas and thoughts on this blog and call it a data entry job. How convenient! Anyway, that’s what I do. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. If you want something done right you’d best do it yourself. That has been my motto ever since I decided to work from home as a data entry operator.

A lot of things have changed since yesterday. Take my opinion about part time jobs for example. The thought of part time work would’ve made me angry yesterday but today I’m open to discussing it. As long as the employment situation is permanent I’m happy to try it, but I just hate the idea of being in a casual job and not having any security or long term vision. Establishing my own data entry position a couple of years ago gave me the opportunity to work from home and, as a result, outside influences are less likely to have a negative impact.

It’s hard to avoid being stressed when your job is not secure. My casual data entry job is great but could terminate at any time without explanation or warning. My success is based on maintaining a certain level of traffic to my websites and blogs. Search results are out of my hand so I have no control over how many people get to read my articles. It’s hard to sustain any sort of happiness when you’re not sure when the money is going to dry up. Does casual employment kill? Not directly but over a long period of time…..probably.

I was up until three in the morning typing articles and blog posts. I don’t know how anyone could work the night shift for an extended period. I’d go insane. I think evening jobs wreck workers. No one can function properly if they exert energy while they’re supposed to be asleep. I was stupid to stay up so late last night but I think you would find a lot of data entry operators who work from home keep varied and unusual hours. The quality of the data you enter begins to wane once you’ve pushed yourself to work beyond the normal working hours.

I just had an afternoon sleep. Try doing that if you don’t work from home. I really should’ve been typing this blog post about eight hours ago but better late than never. Creating my own data entry position from scratch was the best thing I ever did. It doesn’t pay really well at the moment but I’m hoping it will one day. The thing I like best is the amount of freedom I have, although I have to be careful not to get caught sleeping on the job. I’d love to be able to employ another data entry operator one day. I just think it would be great to be the boss of someone.

I know it’s not fashionable but I’ve been thinking about heading south for the summer. Are there any typing jobs in Melbourne? It gets too hot in the little town I live in and the house I rent has no insulation. The good thing about working from home is that it doesn’t matter where my home is as long as I base my job there. So I could move to Melbourne if I wanted to and make money by typing my blog posts every day. I hate moving though. It’s so complicated. The life of a data entry operator wasn’t supposed to be this hard.

I truly believe that if I enter data every day, one day I will wake up and find out I’ve become rich. Well, it’s more of a hope than a belief. At the moment I’m just doing my best and hoping I’ll be rewarded for my labour. If being a data entry operator means being poor for the rest of my life then I don’t really want a bar of it. Working from home can be really frustrating sometimes. At the moment it’s really frustrating. I work my fingers to the bone, typing like a whirlwind, and I just can’t see that it’s making a difference. I must persevere because I don’t see any alternative.

A lot of people take their jobs very seriously, don’t they? They swear their allegiance to the company, don’t take sickies and have to be cajoled into taking their holidays. I’m not one of them. When I’m employed by someone else I tend to run out of sickies pretty quickly and end up having to take unpaid leave. Give me death or data entry? I don’t think so. Life’s too short to worry too much about your career. The hours I commit to my occupation should be flexible so that’s why I choose to work from home. I think most data entry operators like it that way.

I can’t believe it’s November already. I’ve been writing these articles for over three months now so I guess that makes me a pretty prolific data entry operator. Whenever I venture outside and see the afternoon traffic heading into the sun, I feel so glad that I work from home. Australia is full of people performing data entry from home but no one is working with the same level of commitment as me. That’s probably not true but you know what I mean, don’t you? I’d rather work from home than sit in bumper to bumper gridlock with sunshine belting down through my windscreen.
