An Everyday Life for Virtual Assistant: Filipino Tech Modesty

virtual assistant


As I just finished my website, I sit back and open blogger to post here that I have already published my website. After that, I link it to my Facebook page, Twitter and in Tumblr so I can reach more people and inform them about it. I live in Davao City in the tropical country of The Philippines, even though we one of the top countries in BPO industries majority of people has only Facebook as an account. Twitter and Instagram are like too “classy” for normal people and finds them unneeded. Personal webpage? Ask them and explain it to them and they will say Facebook can do that too. Well, they do have a point there.

Now as look away from my laptop, I can see lots people who do everyday task without a need for internet or a computer. Those who are holding their phones while doing their thing are mostly on a social media sites. In my younger years, I would imagine them with working alongside with technology and having a positive result in their lives. Well not now, it’s the opposite. They don’t need an “upgrade,” not yet. Our country still lives modestly even though the technology has already become essential to many by just acquiring what is essential to us. For me, that is a very wise decision.

As I open my phone I press my fingerprint on the back of my phone to unlock it I realized I am like them also. I am in a mall now sitting in its food court eating a bowl of ramen that cost less than two dollars and a can of coke zero. Same as the other people here, they do their groceries in the supermarket. They wait in line to order their cheap yet delicious food. They prefer to handpick items when shopping. They enjoy walking around the mall doing windows shopping and killing some time. Some are here for socialization and meet up with friends or relatives. We rarely order online, ordering takeout food is boring, window shopping is still a thing, and it’s more fun to socialized be with your friends when you can smack them when they tell you some stupid jokes. They don’t need a website to do these things like they said Facebook is sufficient, so Instagram and Twitter is already an exaggeration to them. They have a point there.

So that means we Filipino Virtual Assistants also need less of that exaggeration stuff? Nope.

Now time to exaggerate this blog post and share in on my website, Facebook page, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, Google+ and YouTube Channel. I think I need to make a WordPress account also.
