We often don't have enough time to do things that truly bring us pleasure. Often, working on a schedule - from beep to beep - takes away precious minutes and hours that you would like to spend on family, books, walks or your favorite hobby. But there are people who have managed to plan their day in such a way that they have enough time for work, family, and hobbies. We will tell the stories of three people whose lives were changed by working in a taxi service.


Vasily Bulatov: “Taxi is my destiny in every sense”

After school I went into the construction industry. I heard that they pay well there and there are prospects. As a young man, I really wanted to get on my feet as quickly as possible, provide for myself and help my family. But after working a little as a finisher, I realized it wasn’t for me. I got bored: every day, everything repeats itself - the work is monotonous, uncomfortable, I never saw any special prospects. And for a good salary you need to work 12 hours a day. And no one will ask how I feel, if I’m tired.

I decided to change my field of activity when I got a GAZelle. Together with a friend, we started freight transportation. This was already closer to what I wanted. And a couple of years ago we sat and talked about business, work. I don’t remember which of us was the first to say: “Let’s try to connect to the Yandex.Taxi partner.” They said it and they did it.

Now I'm 26 years old. I am happy that I work in a taxi service in my Priora. I set my own schedules. And there is enough money for a family. I feel like a male breadwinner who brings a mammoth into the house. When I see that I’m having a good day, it even awakens excitement and I work with pleasure.

Every day brings me new impressions. The day before, for example, I was carrying a passenger who really wanted to tell someone about problems at work. I understand that a person needs to speak out, maybe his condition is on the brink. Taxi drivers are a kind of psychologists to whom passengers trust their innermost thoughts. So this guy, while we were driving, spoke out, and his mood improved. Happy for him.

Taxi gave me not only self-confidence and good income. Thanks to work, I found my personal happiness. A year ago I accepted an order from a girl. While I was driving her home, we started talking, and we’ve been together ever since. So taxi is my destiny in every way.


Dmitry Ganchev: “It’s nice to hear when a passenger wishes good luck”

By profession I am an installer of industrial equipment. I became disillusioned with the profession while still studying. So, when the time came to get my “crusts,” I was already looking for another occupation. It’s difficult for young people to get a job right away Good work. I’m not afraid of physical work, but then I wanted my salary to correspond to the cost of my efforts.

I worked as a car mechanic for several years. And everything seemed to be fine, but I still wanted to work in free time. And so that the part-time job is related to technology. I decided to try my hand at private driving: I can’t handle it, or what?! I chose a Yandex.Taxi partner and... For several years I have never been disappointed. I realized that this is what I wanted to do from the very beginning.

I am satisfied with complete freedom of action, I am my own boss. I work as much as I want and when I want. There is time to pay attention to your beloved wife. I don’t earn millions, but I can afford not to save money; my wife and I regularly go on vacation. So I have worked, I am working and I will continue to work.

I am an optimistic person, so I try to see the good in everything. From time to time there are difficulties at work, as elsewhere. But I have set limits for myself that I try to adhere to: to be polite, punctual, careful on the road, so that there are no violations. Do you know what's the best thing? When you bring a passenger to his place, he pays off and says with a smile: “Have a good day!”


Tatyana Astashkina: “The main thing in work is attitude. It is always felt. Therefore, you need to work with soul and love."

It is very important for me to convey a positive attitude outside the car. I tell my passengers that they got into a car of happiness and love - that’s the atmosphere I have. People relax, talk, share problems. And I give them advice. We then meet some of them again, quite by accident. They order a taxi, recognize me, and are happy. And they say that my advice really helped them.

We often don't listen to our friends and parents. And to someone, for example, managers, those around them are generally afraid to give advice - they just agree with them on everything. Such people live in their own world and cannot escape from it, therefore they do not see themselves from the outside. But a stranger, for example a taxi driver, sees. And he can advise something useful.

We then become friends with some clients and communicate. Now there are seven or eight people with whom we see each other all the time and even celebrate the New Year together.

IN Lately Passengers have changed - they want to travel calmly, not fast. I would like their attitude towards drivers to change. After all, you trust us to transport your child, spouse, grandmother, grandfather. Our task is like that of pilots. But you don’t argue with the pilot when he asks you to fasten your seat belt.

When I need to take a child, I always ask for a birth certificate to find out his age. Some try to deceive, they say that their children are already big and can travel without child seat. And they get offended when I refuse to take them. But, on the contrary, you need to appreciate that the driver takes his job, your life and the lives of your children seriously.

When someone violates, they justify it by the country we live in. He says: “But abroad...” But, tell me, who is stopping us from living the same way as abroad? Start with yourself. Follow the rules, make the world around you a better place. Then involve your husband and child. Then friends. There are already about 15 people. After all, if there is something good, why not implement it yourself?

Helping others is also important. For example, I was once traveling alone. Night, winter, frost. Suddenly - three huge silhouettes on the road. I stopped, opened the window slightly - and there were men, one larger than the other. They ask for a ride. On the one hand, it's scary. On the other hand, they will freeze. In the end, I sat them down and drove them away. It turned out, wonderful people whose car has broken down. But even they were shocked and did not understand why I let them into the car. Well, how? Who would give the three of them a ride at night? No one except a woman.

Many people are sure that there are no easy professions. Work becomes easy from the attitude towards it, the ability to understand professional intricacies and the presence of your own interest, not only material.

In Russia, based on survey data from recruitment agencies, the majority of people believe that work is never easy. After being asked to answer what the easiest profession is, many named the work of a security guard, watchman, janitor, courier, loader, salesman, manager at any level.

Light industry professions

Light industry refers to the production of goods used by the bulk of the population. The list of light industry professions is huge, so it makes sense to highlight one product category. For example, shoes and clothes. Light industry specialists in this category include weavers, fashion designers, shoe designers, clothing makers, and cutters.

In order to become a professional in this field, you do not need five years of study and practice at a university, but you will still have to gain knowledge at a technical school. Salaries where food and light professions are needed are not too high, but there are always many open vacancies on the labor market.

The easiest professions

What easy professions exist? Each person determines this for himself independently, based on his own physical, intellectual and moral characteristics. Some people consider professions that they thoroughly understand to be easy.

Nevertheless, despite the disparity of opinions, we can safely highlight a list of the easiest professions, regardless of the industry of work and the skills of the worker.

This list looks like this:

  • Survey participant. All that is required is to take part in surveys from the customer. It is possible to do work remotely.
  • Taster. The work is not only easy and simple, but most of the time it is enjoyable. Basically, you have to taste alcoholic drinks, sausages, confectionery. The only potential problem is gaining excess weight.
  • Restaurant critic. Often, critics are offered a delicious lunch by the establishment itself at their expense, and the service is quite cordial. And all this for the sake of a small review on a public resource on the Internet.
  • Night watchman. A watchman is not a security guard; such people are usually invited to sites where there is nothing to steal and the responsibility of the person looking is close to zero. Mostly students and retirees are hired for this position. All that is included in the duties is to close, open and not allow strangers into the facility.

All these are easy professions for men and women, regardless of their work experience, physical and mental abilities.

Light labor professions

Light professions in Russia are traditionally white-collar professions. Heavy specialties - everything related to physical activity. In addition, according to recruiting agencies, it is now easier for representatives of “physically active” professions to find high-paying jobs. This is due to the fact that, according to the law, a specialist who works physically can count on an allowance for the danger and harmfulness of work, if such factors are present.

In total, labor intensity is usually divided into 5 categories:

  • Heavy physical labor - loaders, masons, diggers and others.
  • Heavy physical labor - builders, laborers, agricultural workers.
  • Physical labor moderate severity- machinists, drivers, mechanics, professions in the light and food industries.
  • Professions mild physical labor - sellers, instructors, trainers, staff. This also includes light professions after 9th grade, such as a waiter or conductor.
  • Mental work - doctors, teachers, secretaries.

Accordingly, professions from the fourth and fifth intensity categories are officially considered the easiest to work.


Easy high-paying professions

An easy and simple profession does not at all mean low wages. There are many examples of absolutely ordinary people putting in minimal effort every day. But even this minimum is paid to the envy of many.

Easy professions with good salaries:

  • Personal trainer. This man knows and can do everything he needs. He can only guide and observe from the side the actions of his charges from time to time.
  • Photographer. A profession in which you can fully devote yourself to what you love and get good money for it.
  • Tour guide. Visit interesting places and constantly sharing your knowledge with an enthusiastic public - there is nothing more pleasant and simpler.
  • Song's author. The work is not as difficult as it initially seems. Some authors don’t know sheet music or have a musical education, but still sell their masterpieces for thousands of dollars.
  • Writers, artists. The work is easy because of its practicality. There is no time limit, or these boundaries are quite wide. You can work anywhere and anytime and no one expects a specific result. The main thing is that the result makes an impression.

The last items on the list are the easiest and highly paid professions, but require remarkable human talent.


Easy professions for girls

Modern girls can easily be seen in professions that seem to have been reserved for a long time by men. Sometimes ladies are found as referees in men's football or driving a typical minibus. It is quite difficult to say unequivocally what the easiest profession for a girl is. But comfortable, warm, easy to work in the profession are still pleasant and interesting for women. The point here is not laziness or unwillingness to work, but the characteristics of the female body and the desire to devote a lot of time to family and children.

List of easy professions for women:

  • accountants, paralegals;
  • personnel officers;
  • archivists;
  • librarians;
  • museum workers;
  • administrators;
  • secretaries;
  • hostess

What kind of women's professions Am I the lightest?

Everyone has their own ideas about easy work. Moreover, one girl can happily work on a tower crane and not understand the delights of a warm office job. And the other would never agree to be a teacher or a doctor preferring to be a truck driver. But, summarizing surveys of residents of our country, we can highlight several of the easiest professions for women.

  1. Secretary Her classic responsibilities include answering calls, making appointments, making tea and coffee. At the same time, the secretary has the opportunity to always look good. Manicure, hairstyle, high heels and an outfit that suits your figure - all these are the delights of office work.
    The working day of secretaries begins at 9 a.m. and ends at 6 p.m. This is convenient, because with such a schedule you can easily have time to pick up the children from kindergarten, prepare dinner for the family and take time for yourself.
  2. HR specialists, paralegals, accountants Working with documents is traditionally considered a woman's occupation. After all, there is no need to move bags and work in harsh conditions. All that is required of a woman is accuracy, tact, punctuality and responsibility. Therefore, most people believe that working with paperwork is one of the easiest professions for women.
    This profile includes HR specialists, legal assistants, and junior accountants. Their work is not endowed with great responsibility, but also does not involve risks or fines.
  3. Hairdressers, manicurists, stylists The next group of professions are hairdressers, manicurists and stylists. Almost all girls follow fashion, understand new trends and bring current images to life.
    Therefore, many people like this profession. For this reason, the work of a master in a salon is one of the easiest for most girls.
  4. Archivist An archivist or librarian is a job for lovers of reading. The advantages of this profession are quiet and peaceful workplace, well-mannered, intelligent people, a lot of free time for self-development and self-knowledge.
    If a girl loves books, then this is the place for her.
  5. Nanny A nanny or governess is an easy job for people who love children. Such a profession can be compared to eternal maternity leave.
    You sit with your child all day, watch cartoons, play, walk, have fun with the children, and engage in the development of your charges. Among the disadvantages of the profession, one should highlight the enormous responsibility for students.
  6. Earning money on the Internet The Internet opens up space for easy earnings. There are all kinds of surveys and questionnaires, boosting likes and paid comments on social media. networks.
    All this is work, don’t beat a bedridden person, which, by the way, is poorly paid.
  7. Civil servant Work of state and municipal employees. In these offices, a blissful, lazy atmosphere reigns in the morning, and the team warms up only at 12, just when it’s time to break for lunch.
    And after lunch you need to drink five more mugs of tea and you can go home. In addition, the work of a civil servant is a minimum of responsibility, because you can always find the last one in neighboring departments.
  8. Museum worker Museum worker is a profession for girls. Here young people will find a good, intelligent team, the opportunity for personal growth, easy working conditions and constant involvement in the cultural life of society.
    The only difficulty is that the employee is required high level education.
  9. Administrator Administrator in a salon, fitness room or hostess in a restaurant. The employee is required to be friendly, smiling, and be able to create a pleasant first impression when visiting an establishment.
    The work is not dusty, non-conflicting and physically easy.
  10. Watchman Many people think that this is a place only for grandmothers, but this is far from the case. It is not so easy to get a job as a watchman in luxury houses. The fact is that excellent working conditions are created here and there is practically no work of any kind.
    You can read magazines and watch TV all day long. All that is required of the employee is to register guests, water the flowers and, if anything happens, call the police.
  11. Investor One of the easiest professions is an investor. Investments bring additional income. In fact, you can sit at home while the money is working.
    True, at the beginning you will have to seriously invest in a large project so that the investment begins to bring profit. This activity is associated with great risks. After all, if you invest in the wrong business, you can lose all your accumulated money.

The easiest job is the one you can study for yourself, independently adjusting its pace. At the same time, you don’t have to worry about money, for example, if your husband provides for you. The Great Confucius said that it is necessary do only what brings you pleasure, and then you will not have a single working day. It is also worth remembering the fact that the work is easy and the work is profitablei - pconcepts are practically incompatible. Therefore, you can think about easy work if financial problems bypass you or you adhere to an ascetic lifestyle.
