I earned $42.03 on my first week of work on oDesk (I worked 4.67 hours this week). I’m working on a Ruby on Rails application. oDesk is awesome! Working from home or wherever you are, at the time you want, for as long as you want, and in what you want, well, that’s very enjoyable.

Give it a try.

On the remote server:

mkdir repository.git
cd repository.git
git --bare init

On the developer’s machine:

mkdir cool_app
cd cool_app
git init
touch README
git add README
git commit -m 'first commit'
git remote add origin ssh://user@server:port/full/path/to/repository.git
git push origin master

Today was my last day working at Ceiba Software House. I decided to quit because I want to focus on studying. I feel like I’m wasting too much time on work and not doing the things that I really enjoy. Besides, I got quite bored working with big Java enterprise applications. That’s not enjoyable.

I will continue working part-time on Mentez, a small company that develops applications for social media. It’s very fun to work there and my workmates are awesome. Besides, we’ll code in Ruby!
