The major companies are always on the lookout for new young guns when it comes to their typing pools. Red hot typing clerks gather every year in a showdown to showcase the best data entry talent in Australia. Competition is fierce and fought over four gruelling weeks in an intense round robin format. There is nothing more exciting than the thought of data entry operators typing to the death. These amazing cyber galactic warriors are relentless in their quest for bragging rights and the crystal trophy shaped like an ergonomic qwerty keyboard.

Are there any data entry jobs for Australians out there? There probably are but I couldn’t find one for the life of me back when I was searching. I can type consistently at around fifty words per minute with one hundred percent accuracy. Realistically, that is nowhere near good enough to get a job as a data entry operator in Australia or anywhere else for that matter. That’s why I had to get creative and come up with my own data to enter. The data I enter is sourced locally, insofar as it is concocted within the walls of my head. That’s the only way I could get a data entry job.

Entering data in Australia is basically the same as entering data anywhere else in the world. Most data entry operators work for a company. They are set tasks which they must complete within certain time frames and the data they need to enter is usually supplied. I couldn’t find a company to supply me with data so I just started making it up. Before too long I realised that I was a self proclaimed data entry operator and the world was my oyster. My blog posts have been described as irreverent, irrelevant, funny, weird and stupid. You can’t please all of the people all of the time!

After typing a new blog post for 134 days in a row my brain finally snapped and I needed a few weeks off to collect my thoughts. Now I am back with a slightly less ambitious agenda. I plan to upload a new article to this site every three days or so. Entering data had become too much of a chore so it was important for me to sit back and take stock of the situation. There were times over the last month when I thought about getting a normal job. The thought of working from home in my data entry business did not appeal at all. I’m just going to take baby steps in an effort to complete my comeback successfully.

I wonder how many people are performing data entry around Australia. There must be hundreds of individuals and teams working from home as typists or virtual office clerks. I imagine most of them would be involved in part time jobs while a lucky handful would be typing fulltime. Australia is the best country on Earth to be a home-based data entry operator and I’m not just saying that because I’m an Australian entering data for a living. It would be interesting to learn how each and every one of them found legitimate work on the internet.

I wish there was a place you could go to for information regarding work on the internet. If there was a home based career centre in Australia I would have somewhere in the vicinity of one hundred questions I’d like answered. Working from home as a data entry operator can get confusing at times and it would be invaluable to be able to contact an expert in the field and bounce ideas off them. As it stands, I have to go into the bathroom and talk to my own reflection in order to maintain a certain level of dialogue on the subject. I suppose it gives me a break from entering data for a minute.

If you’re going to work from home it’s very important to make sure you work from home professionally. I hate it when people accuse me of being unprofessional. That’s because I use this forum to promote my data entry job and complain about not making enough money at the same time. Some individuals, who shall remain nameless, believe that I am unable to take it even though I seem to be quite adept at dishing it out. They’re probably right. I wonder how many of them have the courage and determination to make it as a data entry operator in Australia. Probably none!

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.

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.
