Paying $1–$3 per hour for a virtual assistant just because the cost of living is low is straight-up diabolical. Maybe it works for an entry-level role, but what the hell? Can you really expect someone with real experience at that rate? My rate is only $5 per hour, but I think it's reasonable since I only have two months of experience in Reddit marketing with my two part-time, task-based clients. I just got hired because I already delivered results. Anyway, we're talking about restructuring the team, and our manager is looking to train me for a managerial position. Safe to say I can adjust since I studied Marketing Management in college. This stresses me out a bit, but I hope we can still meet our KPIs. It's okay with me as long as they raised my salary for at least $1-$2 hourly😂😂😂. We're all learning as Reddit updates. We need to be compliant with their strict filters, you know.

Time Check: 2:16 AM Here is my snap of our daily meeting with the team. I'm the first who clock in and clock out coz I'm not the heir of the company. Good night!!!!

I took this picture yesterday lol. It's a tub of ice cream that my mom made. I ate it in just three sittings lol. I should've finished it today, but I got hungry during our two-hour meeting last night. Anyway, I just finished resting, and I still feel sleepy. I only got 6 hours of sleep today, but I'm still alive and kicking. Right now, I'm slowly adjusting to the work environment. I'm also learning how to use my time more wisely since I feel like I'm becoming more mature. You know, paying the bills, growing my career, managing my finances, etc. They say I'm still young, but I feel like I'm getting older. My shift starts today at 4 PM and ends at 6 PM. I'll attend my church service after that and return to work from 8 PM until 2 AM. But usually, on weekdays except Thursday, my shift runs from 6 PM to 2 AM. I told my mom that I should start eating dinner after our meetings instead since I know I usually end up working overtime to finish my remaining tasks. It doesn't make much sense since I only take a short break of around 30 minutes. Instead of eating early before my shift, taking my dinner break during work makes more sense, at least.

Time Check: 2:59 AM Just clocked out since there were a lot of tasks for our team. I told myself I would clock out before 2:15 AM. But then I realized I still had to reply to each comment. Probably the safest way to make sure that my active post won't be get deleted by mods or their strict filters. We're still struggling to figure out how to make each account bypass the strict Reddit algorithm. But yeah, I'm glad our Head/Manager isn't putting too much pressure on us. We're trying to adjust as much as possible. Tomorrow, my shift starts at 4:00 PM since I have a church service at 6:00 PM. The only things that motivate me to go to work are the weekend and, of course, the salary.

Time Check: 2:40 AM Yeah, it's already late, and I just messaged "Clock Out" because I no longer want to work today. Kidding aside, it's already the end of my shift. It's quite stressful because Reddit instantly deletes our campaigns, even though I know they don't sound promotional or spammy. We didn't even mention our client's brand in the discussion. My main assumption is that it's because we used the exact keyword in the title. The platform probably knows if we're just doing it for SEO or not. It gets stressful sometimes, but at least it pays the bills. I just got my salary for my first 5 days of work, and I'm so happy.

Cold ice cream for the cold weather. My mom prepared ice cream out of the blue. I told her that it would be better if she added mango since it pairs well with graham powder. Right now, I have a lot of pending tasks to do before I start my shift. I need to update my books of accounts for tax purposes, create affiliate contents in advance, and draft 7 posts for my other part-time client. After that, I'll also do some cardio before my shift. I usually eat dinner before I clock in since I know it's going to be a long day.

Good day, everyone. I sent money again to my BCHNostr account to upvote some posts. Back in noise.cash and read.cash, I always did this as my way of giving back. It's not a big amount, but I'm just used to this kind of system from 4–5 years ago. Time flies by. I'm glad I was able to do it again. Thank God the weather is not that hot and it's not raining heavily. Glad that I invested in a blackout curtain, as it's been very helpful with my night shift job. I just slept past 3 AM and woke up past 10 AM.

Time check: 2:48 AM Done with my work today. I just finished some workloads, which led me to work overtime a bit. I'm so tired after working and attending three meetings 😂. I'll see them again tomorrow. What motivates me to work is the salary. 😂

BIR stresses me out, lol. I'm qualified for the 8%, but they said I'm only eligible to update it for the next taxable year. Anyway, I computed my possible annual taxes since they assigned me to the graduated tax, and I guess I should just take it for now. But if you compute it in the long term, it's cheaper to pay if we choose the 8% option. I just need to complete my errands for today, where I'll manage my financial obligations. If I didn't have plans to travel overseas, I wouldn't even plan to register with BIR.

This day, I'm getting stressed about my BIR registration. I availed of the 8% OSD since it's better for freelancers who don't have many business expenses. However, I saw 2551Q - QUARTERLY PERCENTAGE TAX RETURN after checking my Certificate of Registration. Fortunately, ChatGPT and Gemini noticed these problems, and I hope they can still be fixed. It might be a registration issue, and I'm glad to say that I already spotted this problem early. I'm just complying since I want to apply for a visa soon and travel internationally without further problems. If you will asl me, I didn't want to stay in the Philippines any longer. At least I can experience the convenience that we deserve by flying outside of this country.

Let's get back to work after resting yesterday. For today, I'm planning to work on a few of my side hustles. I see a lot of surveys available on the site that I regularly check, so I'm planning to answer a few of them and interact here since I've been too inactive lately. I'll also film a few TikTok affiliate videos later after lunch and make a roulette with different themes. This way, I can easily create content that doesn't look repetitive. I just need to be extra careful since I'm hiding the fact that I'm already working from my relatives and Facebook friends. Only a few people know that I already have a job. After that, I'll complete my Tax Registration Form since I'm planning to fulfill my tax obligations. Not because I enjoy paying taxes, but because I don't want to stress myself when I need to apply for a visa or travel outside the country. My main goal is to travel abroad at least once a year without worrying about immigration. Then I'll draft seven posts in advance, and someone will publish them on my behalf each day. Yeah, I outsourced some tasks to a friend whom I know can easily adjust to the role. I couldn't handle posting on Reddit in real time since it overlaps with the hours I need to work for my full-time client. That's why I decided to write all the posts in one sitting. Then she'll publish them according to my instructions and reply to the comments. I'll just track everything in our spreadsheet. If I can still write more than seven posts before 10 p.m., I'll try to draft a few more. So far, I'm getting used to waking up late since I work the night shift.

It's been three days since I received and started using this laptop for work. So far, it has exceeded my expectations, even though it's second-hand. In this economy, where RAM is inexpensive, buying a second-hand laptop was the ideal choice for me. I received a lot of monetary gifts from my relatives during my graduation and only had to add ₱5,000, which I earned from my part-time jobs. A virtual friend recommended a Facebook seller to me, and I'm glad I trusted her. While negotiating, I always asked my sibling if the deal was good or not. I also asked ChatGPT if the laptop would fit my work and lifestyle. So far, I love everything about this laptop. It looks like it was only used about four times. It also comes with a backlit keyboard, which is very important for someone like me who works the night shift. Its built-in webcam is good as well, but I still purchased an external webcam because my client requires one. You know, my full-time job runs from Monday to Friday, and we always need to communicate with the team. I attend two daily meetings. One is with the entire Reddit team, while the other is a one-on-one meeting with the Head of Reddit. Aside from that, we also have a weekly meeting with the whole team, including the agency owner and the Lead Generation Specialist. I'm not sure if that's actually his role. So far, my first three days have been great, and I'm just relaxing this weekend.

Until now, I still can't believe that I already have a full-time job. I just signed the contract, and they already gave me a company email. They also gave me access to their Slack account. Until now, I still can't believe that I got the thing I prayed for. Although things didn't work out exactly the way I envisioned, I'm still grateful for everything. For months, I felt like I was only surviving and constantly questioning why some people can be so unfair. You put in the effort, yet you're given no consideration even when they're the root of the problem. I still feel angry with my Dean for rejecting my appeal for Cum Laude status. It was their issue in the first place, but somehow I was the one who had to suffer for it. Nevertheless, I'm still grateful that I landed a full-time role with a competitive salary. I think $800 in base pay plus up to $300 in bonuses isn't bad at all. I got it as a fresh graduate, and in the end, my degree program and Latin Honor status didn't matter as much as I thought they would. thank u next b*****

Good evening, everyone. I only had five hours of sleep earlier since I'm not yet used to working the graveyard shift. I worked on my trial task from 11:30 PM to 4:30 AM, and I hope we can proceed to the next step. The only thing keeping me awake during the graveyard shift is taking power naps every afternoon. I really hope I can fully adjust and consistently get at least seven hours of sleep from 3:00 AM to 10:00 AM. My tasks right now are to finish my work for one client and prepare resignation letters for both of them. I'm expecting a response from my manager this evening. I also need to fix my schedule today.

Last phase to get this job. Anyway, I attended the second interview, and they told me that I'm a great fit. I honestly thought they were already going to offer me a contract. However, they gave me a paid trial instead at $5 per hour. I tried to maximize my time as much as possible and even evaluated my work using AI tools. Turns out the feedback was positive across the board. The only drawback is that they need someone exclusive, and they're asking for a screenshot showing that I've already resigned from my other jobs. I haven't done that yet since I still haven't signed any contract with them. Hopefully, everything goes well. Nevertheless, the salary and bonus structure are much more competitive than my two task-based clients. It's already past 4am and I will just send it after 10 minutes more. I want to maximize the 5 hours that they gave lol

BCH Wordle 2026-6-21 3/6 ⬛⬛🟩⬛🟩 ⬛⬛🟩⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Play at bchnostr.com/games/wordle

Hi guys. This is my first post on this platform. Anyway, I think some of you know this username since it feels like my branding from the crypto space. It's nice to be writing on a microblogging platform that helped start my writing career. Plot twist that you can earn using BCH as well. I'd be glad to share how my day went again. Last week, I graduated from college, and for now, I prefer to call myself unemployed. But if you think about it, I'm not actually unemployed. I'm currently working with two part-time, project-based clients. The pay from the first client is decent. However, the drawback is the lack of tasks. For my second client, the pay is low, but I only spend 1-2 hours working there. Right now, I'm busy looking for a full-time client. So far, the third potential client seems interested in my services. The only thing I dislike is their payment structure, and it's also hard to recruit accounts with high karma. In the picture below, I'm going to interview with another potential client. I prefer their payment structure, and I hope they hire me since the pay is solid for an entry-level position. Hopefully, the interview goes well later, even though they rescheduled it. I need to sacrifice my sleep just to get a decent-paying job 🥲
