depends on the type of job and the employer.

for example most call center type jobs can be done at home however we as trini ppl dont have the discipline and mentality to get up off the bed... log in a pc..and do the actual work.

we still believe we need to have a manager / supervisor / someone in authority over us like slave massa in order to do the work.

in stark contrast some jobs in the usa is actually done at home . employer pays for phone and internet (which is dirt cheap there) and you do the work and send it in and collect payslip via email / bank deposit.
never leave home.

I heard Duane will soon have an open position for a Moderator after a certain Tuner get deported.

It’s true we as Trinis don’t have the discipline. Besides that, the pay may somewhat be much smaller than a typical 8-4 job. Basically surveys are the only option I think in Trinidad, but rarely any sites allows Trinidad plus it’s very limited.

From an IT perspective, A lot of organizations are completely virtual and require you to work outside of formal 8-4 in order to facilitate meeting/deadlines/projects.

I've been involved with organizations that function this way (professional volunteerism); and remote job offers from the US have come my way. It requires a great amout of flexibility, drive and self-motivation.

It's not for everyone and if you're the 8-4 rat race contender accustomed to working in a cubicle and clocking out at exactly 4, it may not be the type of job for you.

there are a number of ‘gig’ type jobs available, where you can offer services like graphics designs, writing services, voice overs, raps, etc. You can set your own price, but too expensive and people don’t buy. Typical prices are like $5 USD for basic jobs, up to $10 US and $20US for more complicated jobs (longer voice overs etc)

eg, you offer “authentic Trini voice overs”

$5 USD for a 30 second recording
$10 USD for 1 minute recording, etc
$20 USD for a better mic, higher resultion file, etc
