Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 136 | I know that many of you still work outside of the home - and that some of you are working from home and wondering for those of you who are working out of your home - what do you do? I have a friend who can no longer drive to and from work but still needs to earn a decent income. Just wondering if anyone on here knows of something with flexible hours and decent pay that she might consider looking into. Thanks in advance!

If she has computer skills, perhaps she could do transcription for pathologists? Most are groups privately contracted by the hospitals and she probably already knows the medical terminology they use. I know the hospital I worked for in Kansas would also hire independent contractors to help them keep up with the volume of transcription they needed done. Just a suggestion!
My husband works out of our home as a travel agent, but that is something he has built up from a hobby over the past five years or so.
Sincerely,
Lisa

Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 26 | Hi Amy, I work outside the home and also part time at home for a good company. I answer calls for infomercials. If she would be interested , tell her to go to workathomeagent.com. That opening page should give her all the info to start. It may take a month or so to start because you do have to train for the position and the pay can be anywhere from $.17 to $.35 a minute. You can also cross train so you stay very busy. I tried doing this full time, but, I cannot sit for any length of time; I'm too antsy :p If you have questions, just email me: [email protected]Sincerely, Molly | | |
