Why Not Be a Virtual Assistant?
Who said that finding a job is easy? And who said having a
job makes the life easier? Why not be a virtual assistant (VA)? For employees
who spend more than eight office-working hours
daily (yet still among those who are underpaid),
getting a ride of almost 3 hours travel, exposed to the scorching heat of the sun, air pollutants, and noisy rural life
isn’t healthy and easy at all. It’s
illogical that we work hardly to earn (not enough) money so when we get sick
after working hard, we have money to pay
the hospital.
Have you ever heard of the job description ONLINE MARKETING
SPECIALIST? Or did you ever know that you can earn money by working right in
the comfort of your own home? And we’re talking about US Dollars here. You
don’t have to get exposed under that striking rays of the sun before reaching
the office, get stuck in the middle of heavy traffic for hours and smell
stench.
According to the recently released data from the US Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS), some 3.2 or
more million people quit their jobs in May 2017, the most Americans to quit in
a month since 2001 and the highest rate of quitting sing June 2016. This stat may sound alarming and is a sign that
the firm is dropping, however, a high quit rate
at the national level is great news. The act of quitting is the ultimate sign
that a person is optimistic about finding a new job.
In the Philippines, the Willis Tower Watson 2015 Total
Rewards Survey claimed that attrition
rate among organizations in the country has increased where employees as
respondents revealed that better compensation or better pay opportunity is the
top reason of quitting.
Let me give you some insights of why you should consider
about being a VA the next time you think of like quitting your job.
1.
YOU DON’T NEED TO GET UP TOO EARLY TO GET THE
EARLIEST RIDE.
Office employees usually set their alarm clocks to the fullest volume to
be sure they can get up the earliest as possible not to get late.
2.
YOU WON’T MIND WORKING BEFORE TAKING A BATH OR
TOOK A BATH BEFORE WORKING
We Filipinos can’t get outside the house and work without taking a bath; we can’t stand that. And workmates can never
stand you and your smell but when working online at home, you’ll never mind
that and no one will mind.
3.
YOU CAN DO MULTITASKING
While earning through online work, you can also do house chores and
attend your kids or even cook your favourate pasta.
4.
YOU CAN 8 HOURS OR MORE AND GET PAID RIGHTLY.
As mentioned earlier, right compensation or better pay
opportunity top the reasons why employees quit their job. Virtual assistants,
depending on their level of competency can name their price and get paid far
more than the usual company employees in the country.
5.
WORK COMFORTABLY IN A STRESS -FREE, HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT
Some
employees quit their job not because of the workloads but because of their
boss. Sometimes we find it hard to handle tough people and tough situations
specially when pressured and stressed. We end up unproductive and worst get
sick.
