Yey! My blog is now PR1. :D

I finally scored my first job at oDesk. For those who doesn’t know oDesk, it is an online marketplace for freelance jobs like web design, web development, data entry, copy writing, etc. I got hired for a fixed-price job. All I had to edit a WordPress theme, install WordPress, and setup some plugins. I finished it in less than a week. I am so thankful that the person I worked for was very kind and patient.

I hope I did a good job in that task so that he’ll hire me again for his future projects. He was actually very prompt in sending me my payment. He settled my payment after I handed him my work. All I have to do now is to wait for the payment to reflect in my PayPal account. I really enjoyed working on that task. I hope to do more.

I have experienced a bad situation previously. The other person who hired me for another job was rude to me and I’m glad I didn’t get to work for him because he sort of fired me immediately. Who wants a rude person for a boss anyway? He was very rude and demanding that I do a task instantly without giving me clear instructions like he’ll pay a high amount for the job but his bid was only cheap.

I shall forget about that bad experience because: I’m a freelancer now. I already have my first oDesk job experience. That’s all that matters.

Fellow freelancers, please welcome me to the club. Haha!
