The
traditional nine to five jobs are becoming less fundamental to adult life in
the twenty-first century. Whether it’s because of the rise of convenience
consumer culture, the varying demands of modern life, or the unique schedules
that different people prefer to live by, there are now a wealth of flexible
jobs with which you can build the perfect routine for pursuing the things you
really love to do. Here are some ideas for sources of income that’ll give you
the elbow room to practice your hobbies.
Delivery
Driving
The
food delivery industry is booming in a time when services deliver to offices,
care homes, and even parks around the clock. To cater for this demand, companies
such as Deliveroo and Uber Eats offer flexible shifts to those hoping to earn a
few bucks on a flexible and relaxed basis. Check out the uber eats driver requirements to ensure you’re
eligible, and in no time you’ll
have flexible driving shifts to build a work-life balance around.
Freelance
Work
It
might mean taking a course in one of those areas that offers the most freelance
work - proofreading and graphic design are two of the bigger examples - but
once you have the necessary skills under your belt, it’s easy to find websites on which you can advertise your services and your rates to
prospective companies looking for a talented job done on a freelance basis.
Freelance work may often be deadline-driven, but you’re able to
work on it when and where it suits you, whether that be in a coffee shop at 6am
or in bed at midnight.
Agency
Links
Instead
of the reliable wage packet that nine to five workers receive each week or
month, agency work allows you to spend a number of days out of work - giving
you complete freedom to pursue what you want - and then a number of days in
work to make up the cash. You’ll
be able to accept or turn down shifts as you wish, which is the essence of
flexibility; sometimes a long shift in which you’ll earn enough to keep you going for
a week will seem attractive, while sometimes you will be able to turn this down
in favor of continuing whatever personal project you’re enjoying
working on.
Self-Employment
This
is the most beguiling option, especially as there may be a chance that a
creative hobby of yours - like painting or sewing - could actually prove to be
profitable if you can find a market to sell to. In any case, being
self-employed can mean anything from having an online store to starting your own small business to which you can devote every waking hour if you so wish.
Self-employment can be as stressful as it is liberating; if you’ve got an
idea, see how successful it can be at earning you an income.
We
work to live, but that doesn’t mean we have to live to work. Finding
a flexible job to adjust your work-life balance could be the perfect option for
you so that you have plenty of time to spend practicing your hobbies.
