Throw some light please. What are the returns generally ?

1. he is talking about mental satisfaction of doing social service not money part of it.
----Not many employers would like to employ you for a month only and then again look for replacement. It costs money and time to recruit and train.
In your kind of situation you may do taxi driving. That is one profession which you can discontinue and start on your whim. if you own a taxi , its your own side business.
You can also be real estate agent or insurance but you vanishing in between the deals or not taking calls will annoy your customers.
Other option is to do studies if you want a career switch but again you cannot take full time studies.

Yes. It looks all options are all closed nobody will hire you for one month & then hire somebody else. same is the case with Taxi/Real Estate/Insurence etc. Also, i wasted some of my money on doing some course but i could not complete it as I have to go back to my duty. Only option is to find somebody who is free when i go to duty for one month , He takes over & then I come back like this. But in my profession it is highly unlikely to find somebody like this. So, i will drop all ideas for now. However, I will update if I can still find something.
