Work from home jobs

davenkazz — Fri, 01 Mar 2013 10:02:11 GMT

Hi everybody,

After 32 years in the workforce, I have now been retrenched and at home with a bad back, but still need to contribute to the running of the household. I have spent many hours over the last 2 weeks, searching the internet for stay at home/online jobs and I'm ready to pull my hair out. I can not seem to tell the difference between scams and "real jobs" online. Does anybody have any experience with working at home and on their computers?

Thanks, Kazz

There are some admin types of agencies on the net that hire people to work from home but I don't have any links at the moment.

There are a lot of jobs you can do involving data entry. I am also not sure about links but there are companies that will hire you do to data entry for hospitals etc and you can get paid a lot of money for those

Thanks for replying. 🙂

I have actually seen a lot of data entry jobs advertised. Quite a few I have looked into turned out to be sourced from India. I am just hoping to find someone who has links and experience and can send me in the right direction.

Thanks again, Kazz

I'm interested to, to know of any legitimate work from home jobs, not party plans or fake data entry jobs but something legitimate that actually earns you money. Good luck Kazz, hope an opportunity comes your way soon 🙂

i have no idea....i found out about them through a friend who was employed by them.

maybe search using keywords such as packaging, assembly work from home.

Catalogue deliveries, they always look for people. Its a lot of work but again, I know someone who has been doing it for a few yrs now....a retired couple. They have their own area and it has become part of their routine.

O Desk is a good place to check out... But remember you are competing for jobs with people from all over the world including 3rd world countries. Price accordingly and as you get more positive feedback the more you can charge.

O desk is not the only company that does this.

Thanks Cats for those links. Will have a good look at them later this afternoon. Power is about to be disconnected for a few hours. Thanks again, Kazz

The thread is SEVEN years old. A lot has changed in the work from home sphere in that time.

As opposed to selling allegedly rare coins, not in minted condition, with no gradings or supporting descriptions?
