It's been a while since I last logged in to this platform. It brings back memories of when this site was thriving during the Community Quarantine of 2020. Revisiting the articles I wrote back then, I'm reminded of the journey I started as a side hustle nearly four years ago, hoping to become a full-time writer. Eventually, life took me back into the industry, and it's been a roller coaster ride ever since.
My last articles here were posted in 2021, right around the time the bot stopped upvoting. Despite this, I continued to write, covering our National Football Teams (the Azkals and Filipinas) and the Copa Paulino Alcantara in 2022. But then, life threw another curveball—I was laid off due to redundancy at Conduent. My final article before that happened? A piece on the Cinematic Experience of Voltes V: Legacy.
I managed to bounce back and worked with two more companies. At ProbeCx, I loved my schedule and the program I was part of, until it was dissolved and transferred to a different vendor. They reprofiled me and relocated me to a different site, but I didn’t get endorsed to operations since the new role involved an Australian telecommunications company.
My last job brought me back to the night shift, a challenge after a year on the day shift. I passed their Product Specifics Training and Academy Bay and got endorsed to Operations. My role involved assisting customers with email platform issues, particularly when they couldn't log in and needed to purchase a subscription for 24/7 Technical Support.
While many customers accepted the solution, others didn’t, which became stressful. Additionally, we had to assist customers from a partner company whose email accounts were migrated in April 2024, requiring us to troubleshoot server settings. Troubleshooting is my forte, but when the migration ended, the same issues resurfaced, now combined with sales—a skill I had to master quickly. I did my best to stay composed during interactions, even when customers became hostile, but the stress became overwhelming.
After nearly nine years in the Business Process Outsourcing industry—working across eCommerce, Productivity Tools, Telecommunications, Human Resources for a Pharmaceutical Company, Car Rental Services, and an Email Platform—I found myself at a crossroads. If I could turn back time, I would have pivoted my career much sooner.
After leaving my first company, I tried to become a Web Developer by enrolling in a three-month intensive coding bootcamp. I passed, but it didn’t work out, so I returned to my comfort zone. Now, nearly a decade later, I’ve discovered something that reignited my passion.
I decided to take a leap of faith and become a digital product seller. Over the past month, I've been active on social media, mainly TikTok and Instagram, working hard to manifest my first sale. Consistency has been key, but I’ve yet to see the results I hoped for. So, I’m returning to this platform to promote my products, share my expertise, and document my discoveries.
