    Yep I definitely agree. Hated working in a restaurant (back in the day), love camming.

    I agree with what's been said already...

    Do what makes YOU happy. Your boyfriend sounds jealous, and he's probably afraid of you out earning him and being happier then him lol. Your job as a cam girl is no less important then his job in a restaurant, they are both perfectly valid services...supply and demand.

    Your boyfriend is right when he says working at a restaurant is harder. It is. It's one of the worst jobs in the world.

    Working at a restaurant is harder, so shouldn't he be happy for you that you can make money doing something not as hard? I don't get this jealousy at all. My bf was thrilled for me when I stopped dancing (which in this area is really hard and not always profitable) and started camming. And at the time he had a very demanding manual labor job

    Ur boyfriend is unhappy with his job and lays his frustration on you ! What's next ? You will have to quit all jobs that seems to be easier than his jobs ? Will you take the worst jobs with lowest payouts just to make him happy ? Is he more happy if u get a " real "job with a low payout crazy hours and if u injure yourself ?
    What is a " real job " ? If is not a real job why does it pay with real money ? hmmm im confused
    Personally i would give him a dildo and a host account and let him see how "easy" it is and when he makes money u tell him that dosent count lol because is not a real job .

    Camming is easier than a lot of jobs. Just like working in a lax office where you can go on reddit 1/2 the day is easier than working construction, waiting tables, etc. Doesn't mean that because something is easier it's not a "real" job. I can see why he's frustrated, but it's not really fair to take it out on you, esp. if you have supported him in the past as well.

    My advice is to get yourself on Streamate (faster money than MFC, in my experience) with a good cam, and work a good 4-6 hours a day at least. Then you can see if camming is right for you, and you can start making some cash to help out. People tend to not take you seriously in terms of doing sex work, until you actually start doing it.

    To an extent - he's right. Working in restaurants (especially very busy ones) is HELL. I've done it, and I can promise you, camming IS easier. That's not to say that it is easy, but that is is easiER.

    Lets face it, we tend to work shorter shifts, choose our hours, take as many breaks as we want...and that matters. You could be working the same amount of hours as the person in the kitchen (lets say you go all out and work an 8 hour shift) but you get to do it in the middle of the day if you want, so that you can have a good nights sleep. You can take a break every two hours if you want. You can have a glass of wine. And if you are really, really not feeling it - it is a bad day for you, you are dealing with something, or whatever, you can actually choose to stop, and there are no repercussions (other than not making money that day). The control makes the job much, much less stressful than toiling under the lash of some demented kitchen manager who thinks that water is for pussies.

    We also have to bear in mind, that for a lot of guys that have any experience of the industry, a lot of camgirls aren't the SW types. Most of us probably work 20-40hrs per week. We have multiple income streams, and do private shows, clips and panty sales as well as actual camming. We work on our game, our persona until it is honed to a money-making machine. We spend huge amounts of time on admin, promotion, taxes and research. But most of the women that I have met who have "tried camming" or "thought about it" do NONE of that. They actually do just log on for the bare minimum that they need to to pay bills, and otherwise do sweet f*&k all.

    There's a helluva continuum with this job - and if the OP is not yet working, he has no way of knowing how hard the work is or whether or not she WILL be making enough money. When I first discussed leaving my day job with my bf, he had concerns. Not because he doesn't think it is a "real job", not because he doesn't like it, or respect it....but because he knows that it is very up and down, and doesn't come with any benefits/holiday pay/etc. He was concerned about it not being stable enough to allow me to contribute to the household every month. We discussed it, and now he is fine.

    So OP, talk to your boyfriend. Figure out why he is unsure about camming. Also - START CAMMING! You do not have a leg to stand on until you actually have some experience and find out if it is for you (an aversion to how "dirty" the clubs get could be an issue - camming fans get pretty damn dirty - they just can't actually touch you!). And if you are unemployed right now, you have nothing to lose.
    I take cash, debit or credit. I just don't take shit.

    I would say that in a lot of ways, working in a restaurant is harder than camming. That's why I don't work in a restaurant anymore! But, as has already been said.... so what? What's his point in bringing that up? Why is it not a "real job" unless you hate your life and get injured every day...? I swear, some people just like to martyr themselves and they can't stand the thought of someone accomplishing something with less work than them. My bf likes to do this in regards to bartending. He worked his way up to a bartending position in a restaurant - I spent $700 on bartending school. I would try to find bartending work using my school experience, and he would get mad and lecture me on how bartending school doesn't mean anything to employers, and I would have to apply somewhere as a waitress and work my way up.... In my eyes, on-the-job training over time vs. specifically learning about drinks and bartending skills in a focused class for a few weeks was comparable experience. I knew that a lot of employers didn't but he would be so adamant about how "worthless" my schooling was that I honestly think he wasn't just trying to "make me see reality," - he was just angry/jealous at the idea of me being able to jump into a job that he had to work hard to climb the ladder to.

    People just don't like it when things don't seem "fair." Well, too bad. Life isn't fair. Camming has it's own downfalls and stresses. They may not be the same ones as working in a restaurant, but it's not like camming is some utopian job. And if it is easier in some ways, the people who care about you should be cheering you on - not trying to put you down just because *whiny voice* "it's not faaaaaair." So, by his logic, you should go waitress just so he doesn't have to feel like things are unfair in terms of job satisfaction? That's really immature.

    Start camming and prove to him that, even if it's "easier" than a traditional job, you can make good money at it and that's all that matters at the end of the day. If he feels so damn victimized by being around someone making easier money than him that he can't stop the childish, self-pitying comments, maybe you should reanalyze the maturity level of your bf and whether you want to continue dating a whiny child.

    Or maybe he is making these comments to discourage you from camming out of insecurity about the job that he doesn't want to admit to? The whole "Oh, yeah, do whatever you want... *backhanded comment muttered under breath*" routine?
    Don't try to win over the haters. You are not the Jerk Whisperer.

    Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

    I have run into this before.Usually from female relatives,boggles the mind.
    Even had someone insinuate their money was more valuable than mine and I should pay more than
    my half of expenses in our living arrangement!
    It's resentment. The same argument is made by husbands and working moms to stay at home moms,which is crap!
    Success in life is about working smarter not harder, and maybe I am just smarter
    He should learn to type and work in a call center. That's easier than a restaurant
    and they do take your experience there as customer service experience and have health
    insurance.Also you will get tools to move to other office jobs,Restaurant work is a dead dead end.

    My husband says the same thing regarding phone sex work. And he's right HIS job is MUCH harder but that's because he has one of the most stressful jobs in the world (military) but it's still annoying. Some guys will NEVER compare what a woman does to their job even if it's the same exact one. My mother raised me by herself. An artist who was amazing but when reality hit she would work like a mule in a lot of hot factories slinging steel and iron and welding. Sometimes she would come home dead tired covered in oil and sweat and I know there is one guy out there that would still talk shit.

    ok yes working at a restaurant is hard and stressful but he shouldn't take it out on you. rule of thumb, you never mess with peoples jobs (especially if its someone u love), him having a tought time at his workplace gives him no right to demean your job or make it seem like its not a job at all. all jobs are hard in their own way, thats why they are called jobs and not hobbies, thats why we get paid for it. camming is also hard in its own way thats why not all women do it, thats why most of us dont do 50+ hours a week, because sitting in front of the computer for 6 hours or more really drains you + all the other things that come with camming like being pointed at by society, having jerks-scammers-haters-time wasters in our rooms every day. I've had days when i work so much that next day my pussy is sore, and i still work being sore and all. so yes camming is easier in some ways get to pick your schedule, give your self vacations, work less for more money etc but that doesnt give anybody the right to compare their jobs with ours and say its easy and not a real job
