Kinda piggybacking on Ero's topic here, but basically I lost my job recently and since then have grown accustomed to not being in the 8-5 grind.. so I'm looking for ideas. I'm not looking for a get rich quick pyramid scheme, but I'm interested in working from home, if possible, especially while I'm trying to get a more permanent position (if it ever comes, I have so many maybes and nothing set in stone; it's very frustrating.)

I guess feasibly, I can only think of transcription work, but I don't even know where to begin looking for this stuff. I think there's other at home type jobs, but I can't think of any; in the meantime we have 2 mortgages and I'm stressed the fuck out.

I know a few of you have your own home based businesses, and while I'm not looking for that for myself, I am looking to assist someone LIKE that who just has too much work on their hands; issue being I don't know how to find people like that, or if people like that even exist.

Haven't had much sleep in the last week or so, so if any of this is incoherent babbling forgive me; it's just nice to get an outsiders perspective. Assholes who come to post for the sake of being an asshole foad though please.

/blog off.

My SIL did the transcription thing. Most doctors already have a transcriptionist and the ones that don't are the assholes that can't keep one.

Are you looking for a home party job? If so, I can hook you up with Usborne books, LS can hook ya up with Mary Kay or Garg can tell ya about Avon.

There's also everything from Tupperware to candles out there.

Or you could really go crazy and sell sex toys instead of tupperware!

Sell stuff on Ebay for other people.

videos please.

Partylite people sell the best candles out there, I swear. I have tons and only reason I haven't bought more is because I don't know anyone who sells anymore. Tupperware I bought some pieces a while back and they are awesome and last forever. Again, I would buy more of those too if I knew anyone that sold. I also have a cousin who works for a company I think called Stamp It Up
(stamping parties, orders etc.) who has been one of their top sellers and gone on a bunch of cruises and absolutely loves it-don't know if that's your thing but she's made a great living off of it and if you do like that stuff I'm sure I could get you a number to talk to her.

How old are you? Did you go to college? If not, why don't you do that?

in the meantime we have 2 mortgages

I'm guessing that you missed this part while you read the thread

Jeez I need more coffee...i thought she said this...

in the meantime we have 2 midgets.

I thought "well there is your fucking problem...those bastards eat alot."

Best misread ever.

haha, you bastard

i blew half a mouthful of pop-tart onto my monitor

Was this is reference to my college suggestion? If so, no I did not misread the thread. I know three people who work in our factory who have a mortgage and multiple children that manage to go to college.

if you think you got it bad Gyp....think of what Gene Wilder went thru...

well
she's posting that she wants a job cause(and I'm reading into this) that the 2 mortgages were causing much stress

just seems like paying more money for education isn't the best solution?


(ps yes, I assumed it meant you didn't read thoroughly )

The people in my factory make about 8 bucks an hour but the best part about their job is my company pays for their tuision if they maintain a B+ average. So if she is in the market for a job, maybe she should keep her eyes open for an admin position that offers that kind of benefit.

It's just a suggestion though.

My work has much the same policy

take a class, show transcript proof of pass, get reimbursed

All of the office people I work with get their masters through that program too. Granted they aren't hurting for money or anything but it's definitely a great program.

Well, I'd suggest trying to advertise on local sites or newspapers, perhaps, Gyp?

I know some @home people who do stuff, but they are pretty independent and don't have a lot of office type work.

Any other options?

A lot of at-home jobs rely heavily on telephone sales. What are your strengths? Maybe you could work as a recruiter or something?

I work for a company that recruits physicians, and the only thing that prevents the employees from working at home is our boss. People who have left and started their own company recruit physicians from home quite successfully. Again, though, lots of telephone sales... so if that's not your thing, then it won't work out for you.

Make biodiesel by driving to McDonalds and asking them for their grease vats and mix them with the lime and the other thing (I forgot what it was) and fill up your local tracters at like 40 a pop. With the legal amount you're allowed to have on one property at a time being what it's at, you could probably make about 60-80 dollars a day.

Substitute teachers in my town make about 80 bucks a day. And they are out at 2:30. No teaching required, just glorified baby sitters.

That should just be a temporary solution though...you should definitely work at something you actually want to do or at least something that pays well.

erm, don't you need a teaching degree to be a substitute teacher?

Yes. I'm not sure what kind of ghetto schools you're talking about but around here you can't even student teach until your 4th year. Substitutes go through a huge background check and have to have their bachelor's before even being put on the list.

Not around here either.

Lots of development and support for computers can be done from home.
