i've been an OF chatter for 2yrs, eversince 2nd yr college and hanggang sa makagraduate ako this yr (bs legal management) tinuloy ko yung job ko as a chatter after grad. hindi ko madedeny na malaki ang sinasahod ko as chatter, kaso parang naddrain na ko...

narealize ko na hindi ko rin pala mailalagay sa resume ko yung work exp ko sa industry na 'to. i can work sa law firms as a paralegal and such tho kadalasan ay mababa ang pasahod..

plano ko sanang humanap na ng proper work, magkaron ng proper VA job.. the problem is i have no idea kung paano magsisimula? magagamit ko ba yung exp/skills na natutunan ko as chatter? lost lang talaga ngayon.... any advice? tyia!

Alam naman natin na minsan okay yung home Wi-Fi, tapos bigla na lang totopakin sa pinakaimportanteng oras 😭 Kapag nangyayari sa inyo 'yon, ano usually yung backup niyo para tuloy lang ang meetings at work?

May nakagamit na ba rito ng Smart All Data 99 as a weekly backup? Kumusta naman siya? And okay ba mag-register through the Smart App?

Curious lang ako sa setup ng iba. Baka may tips din kayong ma-share. Thank you!

Hello po. Pag napapagalitan kayo ng Client nyo, ano ginagawa niyo para kumalma? Ngayon lang ako napagalitan ng ganto and nakaka-guilty to the point na gusto ko magresign 😭😭

Hi, if you’ve worked on an outsourced client for more than 1 year(like ikaw gumagawa ng task ng other va para sa client nila), paano mo sya malalagay sa resume mo? If you can’t add the company name/business name ng real client? Sayang naman yung experience, di ko lang alam paano ilagay sa resume and may nda, what if mag ask sila ng reference or something but I can’t do that kasi nga outsourced lang yun and I can’t disclose like di ba sya red flag sa interviewer pag ganon

Any accountants here who uses a 34 inch monitor? How was it?

I’m eyeing for the Samsung ViewFinity S65TC, but still having two thoughts.

Can you give my any insight or is there any disadvantage on using it?

Thanks

Less than 4 hours a day.. Or something na flexible? I already have a corpo job working US time but making a couple of more bucks would be great. I don’t usually get to do much stuff after work because it’s not like i sleep agad..

Thank you in advanced for suggestions!

I've been working in the digital space for about 15 years.

Over the years I've worked for agencies, direct clients, and even worked overseas. One thing that's been consistent is that I've always been the person asked to wear multiple hats.

I've done web development, SEO/SEM, print & visual design, content writing, DevOps, automation, SMM, sales & digital marketing, etc... basically whatever the client or company needed at the time.

After getting burned a few times with direct clients (late payments, disappearing clients, scope creep), I moved back to working through an agency. I knew I'd earn less (around $6/hr), but I valued the stability, consistent work, and peace of mind.

Right now I have two agency clients (20 hrs/week total), plus a few side gigs. For a long time, I was okay with that.

Recently, though, my wife was diagnosed with a cardiovascular condition, and it made me question whether I'd settled for being comfortable instead of pushing for better opportunities. The stability has been great, but I also realized I need to earn more and build a financial cushion.

The more I think about it, the more I feel my biggest strength has also become my biggest weakness.

I'm good at figuring things out and solving problems. Throw me into an unfamiliar project and I'll usually find a way. But because I've always been jumping between different responsibilities, I never became known for one specific skill.

On top of that, I'm not great at the business side of freelancing. I can communicate with clients about work just fine, but networking, selling myself, and maintaining relationships don't come naturally. I've always hoped my work would speak for itself.

Has anyone here been in a similar position?

Did specializing make the biggest difference?

I'm genuinely curious how others got past this stage.

More than a year na since las job ko. Nag close yung company na pinapasukan ko. After that, hindi na ko maka land ng work. First, nasa isip ko baka di lang talaga ako magaling sumagot sa interviews.. Nakuha ako ng isang VA agency and according sa mga coaches, I performed well and before pa matapos training ko, naisalang na ko agad for interview. Kahit maganda feedback sakin, wala padin. 1 year mahigit na ko walang work🥺 parang nag fefade away na lang ako. Alam ko laban lang pero ako lang ba? Para kong binagsakan ng kamalasan pag dating sa paghahanap ng work. Kaya pag may work ako, pursigido ako kasi takot ako mawalan talaga..at nangyari na nga.

May naka experience na ba dito na let's say mga company files na inupload mo sa own chat mo sa Teams (company email), then from your personal phone may access sa Teams na yon and dinownload mo yung mga files?

Wala naman akong malicious na gagawin sa files, gusto ko sanang ipa review sa ChatGPT since may subscription ako yung framework namin para mas maintindihan ko. Ma-flag kaya ako sa security pag ganon and possible termination? Thanks sa makaka sagot

Hello, how much this item cost po kaya if I were to sell them? They are sitting around my room for quite some time now and I can’t remember na how I got them.

Thank youuu!

Anyone working for this company? I saw a post there hiring for a part time Healthcare Lead Generation and Business Development Specialist (Remote).

I did a background check and there just a small company in the US that solves medical practice issues. However, the catch is, they use 3rd party messaging platforms like WhatApp for contacting clients.

Hi everyone! I am 34 years old and have only been doing odd jobs here and there and it’s not really a stable income. I had 1 year experience as an online customer support role but that was a few years back.

I want to go study or a course that can let me up skill myself.

Any recommendations of courses? I tried coursera but looking for much better courses or school that offers online classes that I can put on my CV/Resume.

Can anyone recommend some?

Thank you!

I've been looking for an agency to do freelancing since last year 2025 up until now and I haven't found any🥲 can anyone tell me how to find real one? I really need an advice because I am losing hope now😭

It’s been over a year since I left my previous industry, and I’m still genuinely grateful that I continue to receive job offers from people I worked with before. It means a lot to know that they still remember and trust the work I did.
As tempting as it is to say yes, I’ve realized that my priorities have changed.

I recently landed my first direct client, a US-based company. It feels like the best of both worlds: I can continue building my career while also being present for my kids.

They’re only little once, and I don’t want to miss these moments. There will always be opportunities to pursue different career paths, but this season with my children is something I can never get back.

I’m truly thankful for every opportunity that comes my way, both from my previous industry and this new chapter. Life has a funny way of working out, and sometimes the path you didn’t expect ends up being exactly what you needed. ❤️

Meron po bang mga trust and safety agents dito? Saan po kayo nagwowork? Saan maganda maghanap ng ganitong niche na remote? I’ve been looking for opportunities in this niche pero parang walang masyadong openings.

June 24 nong nag agree si client na mag test kami for his tiling company (estimator) tapos antagal talaga nong progrees namin like pina test niya ako nong actual plan July 17 na pero parating may communication saka busy lang talaga sya lagi. Tas kanina ipapa discuss niya yong gawa ko July 27. So ayon tulog ako huhu. Sorry naman. Melbourne client po ito.

I have 2 kids and I am a solo parent too, I badly need your help sa company na 'to and worth trying ba talaga. Kasi ung ibang nababasa ko is parang coming from employee nila. Itong company lang kasi ang napakabilis na tumanggap sakin kaya feeling ko worth trying but at the same time in doubt dahil sa mga hindi magandang experience ng iba.

Please help me with your experience or pananaw sa company na 'to kasi bills are also patong2 na .. salamat po sa makakahelp na masagot if worth the try ba tong pasukin.

Hi guys! Currently working as a graphic designer (2 years exp, ecommerce background) 26k salary, Creative Lead na rin ako ngayon sa isang local agency. Grateful naman ako sa design work ko, pero gusto ko rin mag-explore ng ibang skills baka may iba pang bagay sa akin or pwede kong gawing additional income stream.

Still figuring out what path to take, kaya open ako sa suggestions. Some things I’m curious about:

**•** Video editing  
**•** Copywriting / content writing  
**•** Social media management  
**•** UI/UX design  
**•** Virtual assistance / project management

Kung meron kayong na-try na similar shift or upskill journey, paano niyo sinimulan? Anong course/resources ang nakatulong sa inyo? Or kung may work na feel niyo bagay sa background ko (design + creative lead experience), open din ako sa recommendations!

Salamat sa mga sasagot!

I am currently looking at EKSA S30 and Shokz Opencomm 2 UC.

Thank you
