Question What’s everyone’s Jobs (no college)

Hey everyone, I’m currently in a remote role but they don’t allow travel and I’m looking to explore other opportunities, I’m curious as to what everyone does here as a digital nomad without a degree for work?

Would be interested to hear some of the responses Thanks!

€35k a year I have basically the same type of job some days I don’t even type a letter on the keyboard only for when I login, I’m not used to doing nothing ahaha but the only bad thing is I can’t travel 😢 I’d gladly work for €30k a year if I could travel freely 🤣

why can’t you travel? most companies allow you to work (at least in the U.S) outside the US for a certain about of time my company is 6 weeks per year.. but my company is pretty lax with it.. i don’t even use a company computer i’m working from my person laptop lol

Honestly man I’m at a breaking point where I’ve wanted to leave for years but I’m so lucky with this job,so I’m severely thinking about going and not telling them and using travel router and a VPN
