FlexJobs:
FlexJobs simplifies the job search. There are plenty of job opportunities to match your skills and experience. You won’t find scams, broken links, duplicate job postings, or be inundated with annoying ads. It’s one of the safest websites similar to Fiverr.
PROS
FlexJobs is one of the best resources for locating personally screened, reliable part-time jobs. Over 5,000 companies currently use FlexJobs to post over 25,000 career opportunities.
It’s easier to find higher-quality jobs because each listing has been hand-screened.
There are 50 different job categories to search. Global, local, full-time, and part-time jobs are listed for you to review to see if you’re a good match.
CONS
FlexJobs isn’t free, unlike other sites similar to Fiverr. In this case, quality has a price.
FreeUp:
FreeUp is another site like Fivver that’s highly regarded by freelancers. Companies and businesses looking to hire don’t have to worry about finding quality candidates. FreeUp thoroughly screens each freelancer before they can be added to their site.
Businesses and people looking for work can find matches in all kinds of categories. Amazon and e-commerce specialists, web designs, and advertising specialists are just some of the many specialized services that you can expect to find.
PROS
It is free to signup
You get paid every week automatically
CONS
It is oriented more towards agencies looking to hire
GigBucks:
GigBucks is a good option for people who are looking for more short-term assignments. Gigs can be uploaded that range in price from $5 to $50. You can also approach buyers directly.
Site users can post an unlimited amount of gigs. Just make sure that you don’t keep posting the same gigs repeatedly, as that could result in the suspension of your GigBucks account.
PROS
Sellers and buyers can post gigs for free at any time. You can post as many gigs as you want, especially if you feel like doing so will improve your chances of receiving job offers.
GigBucks has a unique review and levels system. This system allows you to receive more and higher-paying assignments. As long as you’re one of the top performers, your profile will remain on the top of the page so that you’re more visible to clients.
Gigbucks also has great customer service. Their service staff has a very rapid response and turnaround times.
CONS
You can’t be paid more than $50 for a particular gig.
New users have to wait 14 days until they can take out money earned from assignments. This changes once a freelancer reaches level 3 on GigBucks’ website

The Reluctant Reporter
"You can't send me!" "There is no-one else. It's you or no-one, and that is not an option." Ameera looked at the fat paunch and florid face of her boss, a man who lived for the story and the kudos it brought him but who rarely gave consideration to the people behind the drama. When had he become so hard? She reckoned that by the end of the year, he'd be dead, collapsed from a heart attack and she struggled to conjure any sympathy in that moment and instantly felt ashamed at displaying the same lack of compassion that he had.

Thank You Female Product Companies For Normalizing Human
I was born in 1990. In May, smack dab early mid-year. I am quite LITERALLY the definition of a '90's' kid. I don't remember a lot of commercials from when I was younger, but I do know that growing up women in media were photoshopped, sculpted, and molded to be Barbie perfect.
