From 300k a month to peanuts in a blink! Hey, guys! Super stressed here. I’m 28F working as a software developer. Last year, I was earning a whopping 300k/month dahil sa mga side gigs ko. But since my main contract ended, wala na akong mahanap na kasing laki ng kita. Is this normal? How do you cope with such a drastic salary drop? Any advice on how to bounce back and push for better rates? I need help, guys! Gusto ko lang bumalik sa dati kong earnings. 😭

If you're contractual sadly yes, one of sad reality talaga yan, just take your time lang to find other opportunities out there.

Been there too & based on my experience is di na ko ulit nakakuha ng project that's worth my last project kaya ever since i get a project kahit mababa or malaki pa yan is i make sure to save up an emergency funds just in case.

As long as my work & income yun ang importante, give yourself some time lang for sure makaka balik ka sa past rates mo baka may mag open up pang better opportunities diyan.
