Hi,
Just wanted to share a funny story with all of you. I have been working at this company for a few days now (doing a school assignment there) and when they go on a coffee break (about every hour or so :P) they all start up myLot (at least most of them) and start replying to discussings and creating discussions themselfs. Its just to funny.
So now I am able to post on myLot even more because its just part of the job (get paid to myLot ;)). I work with a group of about 30 people so thats a lot of people on myLot all of a sudden.
With kind regards,
MOnline

Hi there! That's really funny. I hadn't even heard of mylot until looking on a work from home site. (which just shows how internet savvy I really am!!) I really enjoy reading what people have to say and responding to the discussions. As you can see, I am very new to this. Can you really put in enough time to make a good amount? I would appreciate any tips! :) Have fun "working" lol

Hi and thanks for your reply. Well coffeebreaks usually take 5 to 10 minutes depending on how much work needs to be done. So thats enough time to write 3 to 4 good replies or start a few nice discussions. About those tips. Well its pretty easy to earn with myLot. The first thing you will need to do is make sure you always write good 'long' replies not just wow thats great. But looking at this reply I see you don't do that. Also when starting a discussion try to start one that most people here are interested in (mostly myLot or Making Money Online for my Interests). Well thats about all the tips I can really give you only been here for a week myself ;).
With kind regards,

You can get in 3-4 replies during a 5 min coffee break? Hmmm I must be slacking!! I have noticed that money issues are always a winner! That and asking for help when it comes to raising children! (which I'm always in need of LOL) Thanks for the tips..I'm gonna continue tryin to "earn" some money.

It really is a great way to spend coffee breaks but we always keep track of the things we should be doing. When theres not that much to do we can go and myLot all we want but when something needs to be done it needs to get done ASAP.

Wow, I'm surprised. Most places forbid you to use company computers for anything not work related, whether you're on the clock or not.
Must be nice!

Yes it is very suprising but when I tell you my boss is a huge fan of myLot it makes it a less strange. My boss has his own office but usually walks around the building to check up on everybody. Not to see if everybody is working but just to talk about how life is and how you feel that kind of things. When he sees you on myLot during a coffee break he usually runs back to his office to check what discussion you started (if you started one) and usually is the first to reply ;). Its fun to see.
