Your Working Status. Poll.
I'm soon returning to Australia for my annual 2 months employment which gives me a cash injection each year. I know many K440 members are gainfully employed full time in Cambodia and there are some business owners as well as retirees, but I was curious as to how the membership breaks down in that regard.

I ticked retiree although I don't see myself as one (too young) but I haven't worked since I got here (2014) and don't plan on working for a while yet.
However
It all depends on a few factors and wether I get life is bored then I will work or financially I need too!

How do you define 'full time'? How many hours? It's quite normal for a Cambodian to have a 'full time job' but earn more on the side. It's not unknown for Westerners to do the same.

I guess I would define "full time" employment as employment generated from a single employer that requires a minimum of forty hours a week. Others may define "full time" differently.

See, my 'full time' job is 24 hours per week, leaving me plenty time for this and that - common for Cambodians but not really covered here.

I'd argue you're an exception, Andy, and most people won't have any difficulty with the question.

Retired with monthly income.
But, for beer money and to build savings, I do consulting gigs here and there, make a few bucks off the internet freelance writing for online games, and a few other things that don't make me any money, but those things occupy my time and muses.

I consider myself retired, because I don't HAVE to work....I choose to do so now and then for extra scratch and to stay off the bottle.andyinasia wrote:So that's kind of options 4, 5, 6 and 7 !Felgerkarb wrote:Retired with monthly income.

You should train with him and break his record.
I work more jobs than a jamaican, as they say. Monthly salary from a school, saturday job in a factory, 2 *don'ttellvladimir** part time gigs for the army and a certain political organisation and farming birds (which i do myself, as i trust nobody to do it properly)
*2 is better than 0
** not bad for a 'degenerate drug addict'

Oh. And sometimes write stories for k440, which scobienz edits badly and researches the pictures to publish, sometimes with the wrong bananas.pedros wrote:I work more jobs than a jamaican, as they say.

I believe keeping busy is the key.

Really? He does? Wow. And no thanks. I don't train strongman stuff, that's not my thing. My joints can't take that stress anymore. Just conditioning myself so it's easier to twist the heads off fucktards....
