Bye-bye, My Second Job
Filed in: Life Log — September 9th, 2005
Counting down 10 minutes… this is my last few minutes working in the company. Starting tomorrow, I am a full time blogger and will flood you with tech news and tips. 
I just handover my stuff (documents and softwares) and tasks to my successor. Hopefully he can take care of it before they found a new webmaster/I.T assistant.
Many people ask me what do I feel for the last day in office. Frankly, “No much different”. I do not feel excited nor scare. I am thinking about my blogging plans, books to read, resources to dig, and my iBook. Anyway, my desk is clean today. 
It has been 11 months. I get to know alot nice guys and pretty girls (you see, this is a cosmetic company!), and learn alot knowledge. A very good experience.
“Where are you going?”, everyone ask me the same question after they knew I resigned. I will answer them, “I work at home, Internet business.” They are surprised for few seconds but then it is not really so surprise if I do Internet business. 
Though I am leaving but I hope we are still connected somewhere. I will pay extra notice to company’s advertisement in public media, for example.
Well, I gotta go. Quit my job and start my journey of Problogger, officially.
P/S: Thanks to my office PC for accompany me in past few months. However, I upgraded your memory too.

Congrats!! You’re gonna love being a soho. welcome to the club. and thank you for all the tips and advice. i’m sure there are many of us who will support your decision to become a problogger. but, it’s you who determines your own fate and journey. look forward, not backwards. that’s where all the fun is.

I’ve been wondering, what did your (ex)company feel about your personal blogging from work? Or whether they knew at all. Anyway, good luck dude. Running own business is never easy, internet or not.

Take my hats off. I hope things will turn good for you.
No offense, maybe you can use a better photo to kick start your new career. The photo has been there for ages!

[...] The Malaysian tech blogger Liew Cheon Fong has recently announced he quit his job to become a full-time Pro-Blogger. (He claims to be earning at least RM1,000 or $250 a month from AdSense alone.) I took preferential notice of his blog because, in many ways, his situation would closely represent a Filipino blogger taking the same career path in blogging. [...]

alang: “things” go up and down
LCF: great to hear that from you,man. Good luck and all the way to soar up to the sky!

Hey Liew , it’s very courages and unconventional. All the very best and keep us updated.
September 11th, 2005 at 10:26 pm
All the best, may the bandwidth be filled with information
September 11th, 2005 at 10:45 pm

[...] I just read “submitted my 3 months resignation notice” and this following what I read here “Bye-Bye-My-Second-Job” a couple of weeks back. Well both of them have reached a stage where their current online incomes allow them to ‘chuck’ their jobs. Congrates to you both. [...]

I am contemplating the same thing for a long time..reading ths post after a year since u left, it makes me feel eerie…do not know if I will also succeed if I take such a risk myself….

@Anand: Do have enough financial support (at least 6 months living cost) and a backup plan? If the answers are YES, then why not?
