I am confuse to choose what job I should take. I have tried office 9am to 5pm job but in the middle of the noon, I feel sleepy and stressful plus I wanna go home.
I have depression and I believe it is that makes me wanna go home every single working day.
Also I have tried telemarketing but most of them is not successful except one I do in 2007-2008, I get sales everyday for 5 sales. My ladyboss like me so much but except this I never do well in telemarketing. I guess its because of luck. I quit because she cheats my employee provident fund money.
Lately, I been thinking since I failed in daily jobs and telemarketing, why not do some part time jobs. I have tried data entry but its only project based and some freelance sales job. Its like you get $ when you do and no $ when you don't.
I need mylotters to help me choose a job that suits me since that I also have endometriosis need to take 4 days leave every month. Can you all suggest a job take can tolerate my endometriosis and won't make me depressed in the middle of the afternoon?

Since you're in Malaysia, you may not have the same kinds of jobs available to you, but if I were in your position, I would think of selling cosmetics, running errands for others who work all day, walking dogs, cleaning houses, maybe limited babysitting. All of those allow you to set your own hours. You'd probably need a combination of several of them to make enough money, and I'm not sure all of them would work for you, but maybe you can get creative with these ideas. Good luck!

Dear peavey,
I have engage myself in a part time job selling credit cards for world well known bank CITIBANK.
I don't know whether I can sell more where last time I did with local bank also selling the same thing, but I like the flexibilty they has promise to give me ie. I can come whenever I want and set my own income.

Why don't you study? Take some time off to think about what you truly love to do and study in that area.

Where are you from? In Australia the government pays us to study. Have you tried applying for social security payments? If you have medical issues maybe you are eligible for some kind of financial support.
It is fairly difficult to work online from home unless you have advanced computer skills. Apart from that, I guess you will just have to keep looking until you find a job that suits you. We don't all like our jobs but we have to work until we find something better. Good luck.

I have financial problems. My dad is the bread winner of the family. I am 29 years old and never successful in any job except one in 2007-2008.
How can I study without money?
My mind is fully occupied with work now. It just matter which job I should take only?
My favourite hobby is typing on the net and surfing net too? Does it mean I am suitable to work online?

Hello! Where have you learnt, what have you studied, what are you interested in?
It's not only about stress, I think every job has a little bit stress. My job is very stressful sometimes, I sometimes hate it, few times per 3 years just didn't want to go to job but in all I like it. My bosses sometimes treat me like their friend but most of the time they stay neutral never loosing politeness. Whatever you want to say, you have to be polite = that's unwritten rule in our company. I think you really have to think = what are you interested in. Look indifferent sites where they offer job, try to search out the duties of offered positions. Try to different people, try to find out good and bad things about some works that might suit you. It is very hard to tell you what will be the best job. I have one job in my mind when I thought about unstressful positon = working in old people house, I don't know how it will be in English, but hopefully you understood. Old people are like small childern, you have to talk with them, take care of them etc. My friend worked in this position and she earned good money as well...Good luck!

I studied secretarial coourse and I know typing.
Most of the company I join is very rude. Don't know why I am so polite they are so loud. Maybe they dislikes me in one thing but i don't know what.
Now am working online and part time selling credit card in CITIBANK.

If you are able to find several different online earning opportunities, that would probably be the best thing that you would be able to do. I know that I've not worked outside the house in nearly four years and I've only recently started trying to make money to help our family out. I've been doing that in the form of online earning and also babysitting, direct sales.
Oh, direct sales may be a good option for you as well. I do Tupperware, but I know that there are a lot of other companies that achieve the same end. You are able to really make your own schedule so it would work very well for you.

Dear dorannmwin,
I have thinking of doing sales, but where to find customers. I would not like to go from stalls to stalls, or town to town,...ya know?
I don't have a client database what I know is I want to earn from the office but with flexibility also.

Yeah, I have been thinking this also. But the income is not secure.
You could wake up the minute you check ur computer the site has been classified as scam already.
And I need the payment like instant one. Can you suggest some sites?
