A fake client, a real cheque, and a close call—how I almost got scammed while looking for honest online work. When I first started looking for online jobs, I wasn’t chasing six figures.

Like many others, I joined platforms like Fiverr, hoping for a small gig to get me started.

How to Be the Backbone Without Becoming a Doormat
Let me tell you a secret. You don’t notice the person holding it all together until they stop. That was almost me last winter. I was sitting on the floor of my 450 square foot rental with an old check in one hand and a space heater blowing warm guilt at my knees. I had just sent extra to the Virginia mortgage again. My daughter and autistic granddaughter live there. Meanwhile I was eating chicken for the fifth day in a row, pretending it was intentional meal planning and not survival math.

The Collector
I collect things that don't belong to me. Not valuable things—I'm not a thief in the traditional sense. I take objects most would consider worthless: a grocery list abandoned in a shopping cart, a child's mitten left on a park bench, a bookmark forgotten in a library book, a hairband from the gym locker room floor.
