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!

It was never my intention to use this blog to ridicule others and that is the main reason I don’t. Some people should try and get their own house in order before they start putting their noses into other people’s business. Just because I work from home as a data entry operator doesn’t mean I don’t have feelings too. Sometimes I may act irresponsibly or unprofessionally but who cares? Not me. The only reason I post to this blog is to practice my typing and data entry skills. Those of you who say my online business is not legitimate need to look a little closer to home (or not).

If you have an interest or hobby that you know inside out, you should be blogging about it and making money from advertising. I don’t know anything about data entry but writing blog posts about it helps me process my own internal journey, so to speak. That may sound like a bunch of crap and that’s alright, but I know in my heart of hearts that every word I write is honest and real (if not a bit weird). At the end of the day I will be satisfied if I end up remaining Australia’s most inspirational data entry operator, and that’s all that matters, isn’t it?

I’m hoping my self-proclaimed data entry position starts paying like a full time job soon. I certainly put in enough hours to expect a better return. If I was working on a more casual basis then I’d be happy to receive the pay I’m getting now, but I’m busting my gut and for what? Nothing….or almost nothing. If I didn’t enjoy entering data so much I’d be more annoyed than I am at the moment. Casual data entry jobs cause more workers to become ill and despondent. I don’t know if that’s true but it sure does sound dramatic, doesn’t it?

One day I’d like to travel around Australia, entering data as I go. People would point at my brightly coloured van and say something about how cool I look. I would stop every so often and type a blog post on my laptop computer and publish it next time I had access to the internet. Would I be Australia’s first mobile data entry operator? I don’t know and to tell you the truth, I don’t care. My main concern at the moment is being able to pay for life’s necessities like rent and chocolate.

The commitment I made to writing at least one blog post a day is starting to really test me. There is only so much one person can say about their home based data entry job without it beginning to sound contrived and boring. Working from home is really challenging and has helped me to develop my managerial and clerical skills. You may already know that because I think I’ve written in a different way about fifteen times already on this blog. I just need people to start finding what I’ve been publishing so I don’t feel as if entering data from home has been a total waste of time.

The fact of the matter is; I’ve been looking for an easy way out. I mustn’t lose site of reality in the midst of my excitement. Is there a phone number you can ring if data entry has become a problem in your life? Is there is, I need to call it! I get sore eyes from staring into my computer monitor all day and my fingers ache from typing. Performing data entry from home was supposed to be simple and lucrative but I’m working harder than I ever had for very little reward. It doesn’t really matter though. Life goes on regardless!
