The data were gathered using an In-depth Interview and were analyzed using thematic analysis. Participants were selected using a purposive sampling technique. Furthermore, the researcher selected the participants based on the following cases: (a) math tutor; (b) virtual assistant; (c) ESL teacher; (d) call center agent; and, (d) cybora. As part of the ethical consideration, the identities of the five participants were kept confidential and anonymous. The findings revealed that the struggles of workers online were the lack of vocabulary, accent, spelling, culture, and self-confidence.
