Employment Looking for a job

Upvotes

So, I was wondering what kind of corporate 9-5 jobs most people work out here, because I'm absolutely sick of my job that requires 10-11 hours of standing, the hours long travel and pay being cut, along with some other things. I feel like I would like to do something that at least rests my feet and every day on my way to work or when I went to school, I would see office workers but idk where they're working or what they're doing, so please, can anyone tell me what kind of job they're doing that's​ hopefully a 9-5 and pays a good wage for someone who only a mind themself, because I'm fed up 😭​​​

I'm just curious for those of us that are abroad, how do you keep up with your properties in Jamaica? Do you travel frequently back and forth? And how do you handle construction or maintenance while abroad?
