As we reach a year into the pandemic and the work from home setup, it’s understandable that some of us would feel antsy, not being able to move around as freely as we used to. On top of that, canceled vacation plans from 2020 still weigh heavily at the back of our minds, as if they were a vacation itch we just could not scratch.

With the uncertainty posed by this already half year-long pandemic situation, a lot of people are still feeling the impact COVID-19 has on many businesses. To make ends meet, many individuals have also dabbled into starting a small business themselves, whether alone, or with family and friends.
In this blog, we are featuring one of RareJob PH’s maintenance staff, Romelin Jito, who has been with the company for three years. Not only is she braving the pandemic and commute by working at the office alongside our skeleton staff, she is also managing her own door-to-door fish delivery business!

When work was suspended last March 13, 2020, the first careless thought I got was me getting a one-day head start on my week-long vacation scheduled to begin the following day. The trip had been planned for months, tickets and hotels already paid, and I was itching to just go.
