  Data entry was actually one of the best jobs they gave my intellectually disabled sister at goodwill. She graded donated books and punched their ISBNs into an online database for resale. They have some pretty awful disability employment practices in regards to pay but she was living with us anyway and it was the main thing she looked forward to during the week. Then she’d spend the money on going to the movies with a care aide on Friday. If she’d actually had to support herself on the money it would’ve been a mess but in her case it was more just something stimulating to keep her out of trouble. Then she started yelling racial slurs at everybody and got fired and was stuck home with nothing better to do than beat the shit out of the rest of us so all good things come to an end I guess.

  I don’t know where to to find data entry jobs though, I couldn’t find then in 2022, 2023, and now LLMs seem to be doing them all.

    I dunno, data entry isn’t mentally demanding in the same way as some jobs, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t demanding. You’re expected to enter at or above a particular speed, and it can be boring which is a different kind of mentality demanding.

      It’s not mentally demanding. It is however mind numbing and mentally draining.

    did data entry for 2 months during a break from uni. It fried my brain. I was bored to shit and came home with a headache each day. I was so glad when I was done digitising all documents and was allowed to do some light programming instead.

      I reckon I’d be fine with it. I’m built different when it comes to boredom and repetitive tasks. I’ve just remembered I actually volunteered to do data entry for a historical records website, recently, but haven’t gotten around to on boarding because I have other commitments.

    I used to be a security guard, which is similar levels of undemanding. You try watching a bunch of black ad white cameras all night, you get to the point where you go, oh look, a moth in genuine excitement.

  They’d have to hire 1000 moneys instead of just 1 human to get anything good.

  Hey there,

    Data entry is exactly as cool as the data you enter

  You do realize monkeys would be qualified to be rocket scientists as long as they could do math right?

  source

  • TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I feel like the people who are down voting this are missing the fact that its litterally the monkeys (apes but w.e) who can do math who are rocket scientists. were the monekys.

    I mean no, first they'd need to learn a century's worth of rocket science and centuries' worth of prerequisites.

      Also, even if you’re verifiably a super genius, I think you’d probably get fired for throwing your own shit, biting people, and stealing stuff eventually.

  I used to fall asleep at my data entry job and they would always get mad at me. I kept telling them it’s just to boring. Then they moved me to another job which was qa testing software. I enjoyed that.

    There was a Family Ties episode (or was it Growing Pains?) where the girl gets a job doing data entry and brings up a flaw in the logic of what she’s transcribing. The supervisor immediately contacts the author who personally comes down to thank her for pointing it out and she gets promoted for being so smart.

    Exactly how the world works lol

    • Fizz@lemmy.nz ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I actually did end up getting promoted from that for good preformance. I had very high accuracy I just fell asleep everyday.
