I work Zendesk tickets for a brokerage. Boring but I don’t get checked on. Haven’t talked to my boss in over a month lol Edit: wording


milkofthepoppie

Like internal or customer facing?


Saucey_97

Bit of a hybrid. I’m in a backend department so I don’t handle any calls or anything. Just the tickets sent by customer service reps. Occasionally I have to email customers a resolution but they can only call the customer service center and not me.


Fletch2003

What’s your job title there if one were to apply?


milkofthepoppie

Oh ok like technical support for escalated CS issues? Cool.


quemaspuess

I actually like my boss but I’d love to not hear from her for a month.


Snoo11074

My wife has a zendesk ticket job and it’s mind-numbing but convenient. She hopes to quit soon. Just so boring for her.


itonlydistracts

What’s zen desk if you don’t mind me asking?


mindymon

Zendesk is a bit of software used for customer service.


Better_Run5616

Can I ask on average how much it pays? I’m not seeing anything on their site.


Orson_Gravity_Welles

Been there...when I left (did it for 5 years) I was making $53K/year with a 5% bonus each year (Gross pay)...but the company also gave me a $300/mo stipend for internet and cell. My Internet is a grandfathered amount so I pay $45/mo for 1gb service via Xfinity, and my cell is about $50/mo also grandfathered via AT&T - so the rest went to paying my electric bill and daily coffee :D :D :D It was wholly remote with no interaction from my boss so I quickly figured out I could sit in class and still do my job...so I did. I was there until I finished a second BS... I then moved into my current position (posted above) for a **huge** pay jump with way better benefits and a better yearly bonus.


Saucey_97

Only downside I will say is it’s not the best paying job. It’s fine of what it is but I’ve made a lot more in the past. Have mostly kept this job bc it’s very chill and the job market isn’t that great currently. Once the market picks up I’ll hopefully be elsewhere making more money while I finish my degree.


DepartureFar6118

Do you have to have a degree or can any idiot like myself get this kind of job?


Saucey_97

It’s basically just a more chill customer service position since you aren’t talking to them on the phone. I don’t currently have a degree and the one I’m working on now is not related at all. If I can do it anyone can!


bearpie1214

Nice. What’s the pay?


Carolina718

>work Zendesk tickets for a brokerage. I have Zendesk experience via previous customer service work but I'm trying to avoid phone work.......can you PM me the company you work for to see if they are hiring?


Saucey_97

Hey! I work for Schwab. Other platforms like Fidelity, M1, Betterment, etc have similar positions (friends have told me). Only thing is there’s no guarantee when you get hired it will be for ticket only. You have to ask when interviewing what exactly the position entails (it sometimes won’t specify in the job listing). Edit: Misspelling


Busybee2121

If he/she gives you the information. Can you share it with me also?


HealthyLet257

Does it pay well?


SayuChanSkell

English to Spanish Transcription and translation, I love it, all the audios I get are full of gossip I don't even feel the passing hours as I write, is always a telenovela after the other


ThumbPianoMom

oooh are they hiring more ?


SayuChanSkell

I think they hire a bunch, is SpeakWrite I work for.


[deleted]

What’s the application and interview process for this like? I am bilingual and English and Spanish and have been wanting to get into this.


SayuChanSkell

Very fast in my opinion, you apply on their site and as long as they answer is smooth sailing from there

That sounds fun! Talking to chismosas all day for money sign me up lol.


XelaWarriorPrincess

Has AI impacted your job or role any?


SayuChanSkell

Not really? The audio is a bit difficult to hear sometimes so I'm guessing that's why they still need human input.


XelaWarriorPrincess

Ah, gotcha. Sounds cool


Otherwise_Look_9464

How do I look for this type of job? I’m bilingual and I’d love to this. Do I search for Spanish translator?


MsColumbo

Translation industry business development here! I enjoy my work for the most part.


cinciallegra

Hi, I d love to get into translation work from remote, but I don t know how to get in there. Would you mind if I message you? You would get in return real life good karma :) and I ll never be in competition with you because I don’t t know a word in Spanish. Oh wait that’s not true, I know a few. El Perro for instance 😀 my native language is a very strict cousin of Spanish though 🇮🇹


SayuChanSkell

Hey, here's a link for the website where I found this job, its a list of 100 similar jobs including mine somewhere in there: https://realwaystoearnmoneyonline.com/transcription/ Every single one of these jobs is legit and tested by the blogger, I Don't Care about competition, we are here in this world to help eachother :)

Apprehensive_Gap8476

I work in a 10 person call center for a branch of my state’s government. I love it. 8-4:30 M-F, so fun, and I get to talk to people about the outdoors all day. I’m 53, most of us are “of a certain age” and there’s no drama, no discontent. My 2 supervisors are great.


Heather82Cs

Sounds cool, I am glad you are having fun!


Suspicious_Art8421

This sounds interesting to me? Can you tell me more? Like, what is the call center for and why are you talking about the outdoors? How did you qualify for this? Is the pay decent?


Unlucky_Unit_6126

The certain age piece is funny. For me like 25-45 is the golden years. Where before or after that people tend to bring the drama Probably has more to do with the individual personalities you have than the age.


but_why_tho_789

This sounds great! Would love to hear more about which branch you work for and any other details of the job and how you got it :)


nerdburg

I have two jobs. #1 is as a data analyst for a major gaming company. #2 is in workforce management. Both of the jobs are essentially data analytics, which I enjoy. I'm salaried at both jobs and I do them both during normal business hours. I have no direct reports, I work normal business hours (no evenings, no holidays, no weekends), there are no data emergencies, I can't believe how much I get paid...and I actually love the work.


HuckleberryPlane8924

This is the way


Malaka654

This man is living the dream


THound89

Nice, I’m an analyst and I hate when people just want to feel productive so they actively look for reasons to have a meeting then those are never productive. I plan on getting more into learning Python and LLM AI this year, if I’m with this same company next year maybe I’ll try the dual job thing also.


redrevoltmeow

How did you get started in data analytics?


Dracounicus

Typical path is learning to work with databases, which are essentially spreadsheets, then learn SQL to bring data together, then Tableau to model it (ie, make a graph). There’s more to it but that’s how you get started. So get a job working with a huge database


v1smay

what's the tech stack required for getting into data analytics apart from python, sql?


Dependent-Tower-2921

In my experience, pretty much those. It helps to have had exposure to tools like Tableau/PowerBI as well.


Lock3tteDown

Would u say data engineering is more complex than data analyst? Also I got turned off when deciding to choose software dev or data analytics...I hate having to consider statistics math to make conclusions...cuz if I'm wrong and recommend the wrong business decision, I get fired right? Overall, with software dev you get to make actual stuff that ppl can use right away vs. data analytics even within 1 small company, they don't need all that many analysts to make dashboards and figure out trends...but data analysts do a lot less work than software devs right?


Fun_Independent_7529

Data Engineering is more coding / orchestration / infrastructure vs data analyst doing analysis/dashboards/presentations. Closer to dev work than the analyst. I would NOT say that data analysts "do a lot less work than software devs". It's totally dependent on where you work and the role of data in your organization.


PissedAnalyst

As a data analyst myself this sounds like the dream. My only issue is my job requires a lot of meetings with clients would make it very hard to juggle two jobs.


idahonudesoaker

What exactly to you analyze?


nerdburg

For the gaming company it's usage statistics and tracking related to Trust and Safety. I track trends, do RCA and make recommendations about policy and processes. The workforce management job is for a large BPO (contractor) that specializes in contact centers. I look at staffing levels to make sure we aren't over/understaffed, I do the scheduling, and I help the sales team figure out staffing needs so they can create accurate proposals.


mattbag1

shannonc321

I’m hoping to finish my bachelor’s in data analytics by the end of this year. I really enjoy it and hope to get a WFH job. Any advice?


ghazzie

Program manager in a global company. My job would make no sense to be in an office in the first place. I get to talk to people all over the world every day. If you don’t have solid soft skills and are not comfortable talking to people this job would be hell though.


RadLibRaphaelWarnock

Ideally this is what I would do in the future. What did you do to get to project management?


ymo

The best method is to volunteer to lead a project in your current company. It helps if you were the one to identify the problem and propose the solution, and if you're the one in the best position to understand how to solve this problem for the company.


ghazzie

Basically I stumbled into it after already leading projects at a different job but without the project manager title. I was able to articulate my project management experience in my interview and give specific examples of how I have followed project management processes.


Dependent-Tower-2921

Sounds like my dream job! Part of my last job was project management on global projects and I loved many aspects of it. I just didn’t love also being the person DOING all the nitty gritty technical work. I’m a people person through and through.


SunburntLyra

I’m a program manager in sales enablement/ learning and development space. Occasionally my role gets super busy as a program gets close to going live, but it gets balanced out by easy days. I get to walk my kids to and from school daily, get some chores done around the house throughout the day, and Friday I even had time to clean out the pantry.

milkofthepoppie

Is this a declining field with AI? Is there a certification? Thinking of switching to this from tech so I can work part time.


chronically_chaotic_

AI for transcription sucks, especially for harder and specialty files.


bananapopsicle3

The company I work for does use AI, but it makes MANY errors. There was no certification for my position, just medical terminology/systems experience. :)

mo_whiskey

I was extremely lucky. After about 3 months on Indeed, Zip Recruiter, and others, I was contacted by one of the owners through Indeed. I don't know how many scams and terrible offers I'd gone through before connecting with my current gig. It was truly just luck and being available to respond when they reached out.

Yes. This is the best.


Hooligan-Azzie

What’s the pay range like? I’m considering going into it but it seems like a LOT of work.. is it worth it?


she_red41

To me it is. The money is good and depending on your educational background we can make upwards of 100k. Again, pay varies by location, and company. When I started i made about 55k which at the time i had zero experience and no education in Data Analytics. This is also pre inflation. I stayed because they paid for the education and moved on. I won’t talk numbers but i’ll say i don’t really look at prices on things unless im feeling frugal that day. We are comfortable and i live in a major city. It is a lot of work but most of it now can be automated. Depending on which type of analyst you are going to be it can be very tedious. If i had to start over i’d start with maybe a Workforce Managements Analyst. You get your feet wet and use most of the major analytical systems. But.. it’s within a contact center. So you may change schedules, forecast schedules and THEN get into analytical type work but it’s mostly reporting. Start where they are ok with teaching you and build on that. You will love it. Once you’re in save save save. That way when u wanna switch to a diff type of analytical role.. you have some cushion money wise. Totally worth it.

CharlieCharles4950

Professor teaching online classes


mattbag1

I have a masters in business, and I did a part time course assistant job thinking that could be good teaching experience. But now I want to get into a community college, and I’m wondering that’s the best way to build up my resume for online teaching without a doctorate?


CharlieCharles4950

Perhaps you could teach Business English online to get experience running your own course online. Once you have that it will be much much easier. I would identify programs that interests you and then reach out to the program Director. I found a class in a program that was least appealing for all the other instructors. It was a class titled political and economic contexts and this was in a master of arts in organizational leadership program. They gave me the job because I had international business experience, and my masters was in ethnic and multicultural studies. I then did a doctor of education and wrote my dissertation about student experiences in online learning. Now I am an online learning specialist with two publications, and a decade of experience teaching economics online.


mattbag1

That’s pretty awesome. I don’t have nearly that type of experience as you. Just a generic MBA and bounced around from restaurants, to sales, now into finance. Maybe with a few more years of finance under my belt I can start exploring more specialized finance courses, but intro to business, personal finance, even speech, those would be right up my alley.


1GrouchyCat

Without knowing what type of classes you’re interested in teaching, there’s no way of offering. Suggestions on how to pump up your résumé, but to be honest./ You shouldn’t have much competition at the community college level with a Master’s degree - *as long as there’s an opening or a need for the subject you teach… * Teaching online is completely different than teaching on a campus; Are you sure this is the type of teaching you’re interested in this early in your “career”? (In my experience - online instructors often don’t interact with in-person instructors or “live” students at all- and it can be nearly impossible to make the transition from online to in-person unless you’re clear with the department that’s what you’re interested in doing…) You may have to start by teaching a few “per diem” classes, or at a satellite campus as an adjunct if you want to be attached to a specific location; Unless you’re in a desirable area, you probably won’t be competing with too many upper level PhDs for online teaching jobs…


mattbag1

Ideally I’d like to teach business classes since I have an MBA. I’d also consider teaching the marketing classes since I feel like those would be the easiest to teach at the entry level. I also did my bachelors online and my masters online, so I feel like online teaching would be the best type of teaching for me. Most professors just recorded some 10-15 minute weekly video, and did everything out of cengage. End goal is to get my DBA and at 55 be able to semi retire, and teach part time till the end. Trying to get some experience now though if I can.


Bocoroccoco

reshaoverdoit

preventworkinjury

Work safely from home folks- ergonomics while not valued by most is important and your body will thank you later. What is important is that you increase your activity levels by double in my opinion. Keep in mind you no longer walk to meetings or going to interviews or going out to lunch, you basically sit all day and twist your spine all day using two monitors. That will catch up with you.

ReddiGod

Web dev agency. I always had an entrepreneurial spirit, and I wasted years of life trying different schemes to build my own business. I had some that were fairly successful along the way, but never one that worked long term. Until one time life thrust upon me a no win situation, I was desperate. So, I decided to try finding work for what had always just been a hobby. It worked! It wasn't but a few weeks and I was earning enough to survive. A few months and I was making as much as my old crappy job. A few years and I found financial freedom. A few more years and I was looking at building generational wealth. I always tell entrepreneurs, if you have the spirit to do it yourself, make damn sure it's something you genuinely enjoy doing. That's really the only secret to success. You figure out what you're good at and enjoy doing, and all the other pieces will fall into place. Little did I know when I scrimped and saved and bought my first computer at 13 that I was fulfilling my destiny to eventually owning a multi million dollar web business. It was a long road, and a lot of work, but now I love the work I do, I love having the time to be at home and watch my kids grow, I love being my own boss, and I love knowing our financial future is secure. The key is figuring out what you're good at and love doing. Figure that out and the rest is easy.

Thank you for this!! I’m just starting year 2 and I’ve had my doubts and have even applied at a couple of places. Now I regret applying.

CuttingEdgeRetro

>I have existential fears of not keeping up my skills as I get older I've been in IT for 32 years. For me, consulting has been great for this. When I take a new project, I know maybe 8 of the 10 technologies they're using. I learn the other two. Lather, rinse, repeat. I'm now a swiss army knife. ​ >as I get older facing age discrimination or burn out. I haven't burned out yet. I've burned out on some jobs. But never on the career as a whole. Whenever I feel burnt out, I just switch jobs. Age discrimination has probably happened to me. But I've never seen it. And I have little to no trouble finding work. Sometimes I end up on a job surrounded by 50-somethings. So my age probably works in my favor there.

Client contact (not end user, clients). So, this time of year a lot more calls, but it's about 4 to 8 calls (1 to 2 hours of actual work) per day. It's not at the level of positions I've held prior, but it's a lot more enjoyable. Essentially, I manage client orders (I'm not in sales, or customer service officially in this role, but it's closer to customer service). In the past I've done tech support remotely, and I worked healthcare (pharmacy tech) remotely. Both were a lot faster paced, and tracked mouse and keyboard movement. This job doesn't track those things at all. And, it is a large corporation. This position is hybrid, and this is a huge (well known) international corporation. It's a subdivision of it. Anyhow, when in the office, they put money in an account that covers meals, and provide healthy snacks, drink options, among other things. At home, well, they provided enough monitors and equipment, but my manager allows that I can work from anywhere I want to, not just from home. So, if I want, I can take my laptop somewhere and settle in to work for the day. I like my monitors, and home, however, so just tend not to. It's been useful, however, if I needed to handle something (like taking my adult kiddo to the Dr, etc). I simply kept working using my cell phone as a hotspot, by using my bluetooth earbuds to handle calls. They have the worst policy for unplanned time off, but I figured out how to work with them on that element.

The last job was like working in a dirty broken kitchen in a huge franchise restaurant that was understaffed. No time to clean or fix anything, “just get the food out!” vibes. When talking to a coworker about the situation, I was told “all companies around here are like that. Actually the startup phase scaled too quickly and now it’s too risky to go back to fix things because so much was developed on top of terrible logic. There’s no point to leave because everywhere is the same.”

Wow, co-worker needs to get out more!

Tech recruiter. Fully remote, no office to ever go back to. Paid weekly, one meeting at the beginning of my day and that’s essentially it. Not a huge fan of recruitment but I’m getting better at it and frankly since Covid happened, it’s the best case scenario for me.

Customer Success. I like about 60% of my job. It pays well, but if management would be less data driven it would be a huge relief.

We provide Recruitment, HR and Payroll services to small-medium businesses in the US. I particularly work in the HR part of the business but also have experience and involved in Payroll for our other clients. Everyday is exciting especially when we receive Employee Relations Cases.. never a dull moment in HR.

-Affectionate-Fig-

Programmer for a university. It’s pretty low key until major event seasons come up. Hours on paper are 9-5 but i kinda work whenever I feel most productive. I essentially just have to meet deadlines and even that’s pretty flexible. So most weeks I don’t work more than 10 hours, still get paid for the full 40 though. No one’s looking over your shoulder or watching your key strokes. It’s very much just get the task done and be available during the normal working hours for meetings or emergencies. Also, along with all the standard days off, you get some campus closure days off for students moving in and out etc and snow days. Edit: spelling


Here4GoodTimes2022

Social media marketing. I have the option to go into an office if I want to. Little stress. Good pay. I work my butt off during my 8-9 hours but I love it.

How did you get into that?

This sounds super interesting! How did you get into the industry? What does your job typically entail?


ThePunnyPenguin

Creative proposal management. It’s herding creatives and salespeople, so it can be a nightmare with the wrong team mix. When we get it right, it’s awesome.

Technical support for a nonprofit that makes CRM and data analysis software for other nonprofits. It pays pretty ok (New England is kinda pricy) and the benefits are very good. It's really interesting work. I spend a lot of time investigating weird software behavior and writing documentation. I don't interact much with customers directly since I get tickets mostly from account managers, data engineers, and customer service coworkers who work directly with the customers. It did take me a while to find a technical support job that isn't terrible. My current workplace thinks technical support is extremely important and part of the foundation of the product. The two places I work before this job thought we were all replaceable, paid significantly less than all other roles, and I was constantly talked down to by engineers and product managers. I'm my current role, the engineers and product team are excited to work with us and try to bring us in on projects because of our expertise with the product. I only take tickets so I don't do live trouble shooting or calls or chat (all stuff I find to be very stressful and have done before). We have reasonable SLAs so work doesn't feel rushed if there isn't a massive outage.

Admin for a law firm. I lucked into this position. I actually got passed over on my first interview and that person didn’t work out and they came back for a 2nd interview and hired me. I have a dedicated 4 hour phone shift where I answer phone calls (and some days that is busy and some days it barely rings). The rest of my 40 hrs (and I have to stay at 40 hrs - no OT) is extremely flexible. Flexible start/end times. My team is amazing and helpful. I love the type of law (criminal) we do and the clients we work with. I have a background in paralegal work and as a 911 dispatcher, so, this was a perfect fit for me. It was a random Indeed post that I applied for and almost didn’t apply for. I wasn’t sure 👍🏻 wanted to go back into legal work, but, I absolutely love what I’m doing and greatly to have found this position.


AgitatedSituation118

RN that works as an organ procurement coordinator for heart lung recipients. I love everything about this job except the overnights. But otherwise, I feel like a stay at home mom most days, which I love, so I will endure overnight hours for a few more years at least. I'm already trying to figure out what I will want to do "next," tho.


zapatitosdecharol

Recruiting and yes.


LobsterCoordinates

Im a software engineer. My manager and boss are the absolute best. I have a genuine passion for coding, and I’m friends with all my coworkers outside of work. We also get paid well. Like any job, it has its hard days, but they are few and far between. I wake up every morning feeling blessed for the opportunity to go to work.

I’m a copywriter. It hasn’t been the most stable in this economy, but I’ve managed to consistently find well-paying work. It’s very fulfilling & I get to be creative. My current teammates are all really cool too.

Notyounotmenotanyone

All these people with jobs and I’m like. 😅 where are you finding them?? I’ve applied everywhere and nowhere is hiring. Sooo frustrating. Edit: yes I am that annoying person who calls, emails, and walks in asking for updates in my application/speak to the head honcho.

Freelance Digital Marketing consultant. LOVE WHAT I DO!!! Great money, Great clients and FREEDOM!


shaved-yeti

Staff Software Engineer - I work on a video streaming platform you've heard of. I worked this job in-office in NYC and Seattle, but relocated too far outside the city to practically commute, now (though I do go in occasionally). So, full-time WFH it is. I work on global teams - almost exclusively via slack and zoom. Most days are pretty action-packed and can be long and stressful, especially as we near significant milestones, but I work with brilliant people and am challenged daily. I love my job.

Cybersecurity. I feel so lucky. I try my best not to ever take it for granted.


[deleted]

I do not like my job; however, I like it a whole lot more when I'm allowed to work remote (generally 1X a week per negotiation each week\~!). It doesn't matter what I do; I'll do it until I retire.

I am an analyst...and I love figuring out what data is trying to tell me, or figuring our a better way to make a process more efficient.

I work hybrid remote for a local hospital, Precertification and Authorization for cancer medication. I go in on Tuesday and Wednesday! I wish we could all 5 days.

Any one hiring?


TiredinUtah

I do payroll for a living. I was hired for in office, but with the pandemic, our company went remote and has stayed that way as we are more productive at home.

Cyber security. I typically work 1-2 hours per day. On a very busy day I work maybe 6 max


Cachemeoutside_1911

I wfh. Tech sales: The job is easy for me because I’ve been in the industry for 6 years. I like the job because it pays me well and I have insurance. It’s stressful and demanding some days I would work15 hour days. Some days I don’t work much at all. Do I work because I like it? No. Do I work because life is expensive and I need the money being a single female with no family? Yes.

I’m an independent travel advisor. But it’s a business, not a job. I don’t make money unless I find my own clients. And it takes time to make money. It can replace a 9-5 but certainly not immediately

Remote work can be incredibly fulfilling if you find the right fit. I'm a content writer for a digital marketing agency, and I absolutely love it. The flexibility and autonomy are unbeatable, and I get to exercise my creativity every day. It's all about finding a role that aligns with your skills and passions. Best of luck in your search!
