I are loves to writes and bloggs and stuffs, init?
Hi,
Since I received over 20 messages saying "Hey, I want info on that writing job." I will just post the information here. First off, I wasn't talking about a specific job.
But here's how you can go about finding freelance writing/blogging jobs. Some might be a one time only project, others might be writing blog entries every day, while others might be submitting article to magazines and e-zines.
So here's my advice ...
Read this list of jobs that is updated daily. You can find everything from ongoing blogging jobs to magazine writing to writing articles for websites. I have actually gotten a lot of jobs from this list:

Read Deb Ng's blog at Writer's Row where you can also find writing/blogging jobs:

Apply to write a blog as part of a blog network. Here are some popular blog networks. Most of these pay a small monthly amount plus bonuses based on page views:

I've been telecommuting for 15 years, but I work for family.
Bump if y'all are still interested in work at home stuff...
I was looking at jobs this weekend and found that UnitedHealth Group is hiring for Claims Professionals at the moment. It doesn't say Work at home per say, but work at home potential. Benfits and the whole shebang.
Job Fair Today and tomorrow from 11am to 7pm at their location at 5959 Northwest Parkway (across the street from the De Zavala Wal-Mart ).
We looked into the Alpine place mentioned here and for some reason they aren't available in Corpus.
We found a few nickle and dime places but we're still looking.
Is she hot? There are quite a few escorts around town making $200 hr working from home. At least thats what I've heard LOL.
This is who my wife works for, and yes their whole gig here in SA is work from home now.
They set you up with a pc, internet, and phone line to your house.
what do they usually pay?
I work from home but it's not like it was a plan ... merely that I work for a company where all the people I work with are at other locations and so there's no benefit to me sitting in an office all day consuming space, electricity, etc. All of the work I do is phone/net based and so where I sit isn't terribly important. And I save enough in gas/frustration driving that I don't mind paying for internet (which I would have anyway) and phone (most of which is toll-free anyway).
The drawback is that without people eyeballing you it's sometimes hard to get credit for the work you do ... all you are is a disembodied voice or that guy who sends a bunch of email. So you have to work harder to be visible in other ways.
I just got from the job fair and just for a warning to anyone thinking about going...just apply online and save yourself the trip. It was only like 2 minutes for me to get there but it would have been easier to sit in my pajamas and fill out another online application that I've become so accustomed to filling out. You do have to go in for some assessment, though.
But to answer your question...they said base $24,000 with no waiting period for benefits. You get enrolled 1st of the month. That was the best part I thought.
I am PeeWee and I approve of this thread.
Seriously, there's some that I'm going to look into.
My wife works as a translator from home. Sets her own hours. If you are bi-lingual, it's fantastic. I'm so jealous of her. She works while in bed on the phone. It's crazy. I hate my own job like no one's business...when I come home and she's lounging around on the phone, watching the tube etc...I'm just like F me man.
But to be fair, we have two kids and homeschool, so it's not like she doesn't work mind you, but her job is just about perfect.
Thank you Basics, this thread is extremely helpful!![]()
if you wouldn't mind, can you give me some specifics on that type of job?
My wife just finished getting certified to teach Spanish in December, and even after the job fairs with the school districts, still hasn't heard a peep...
If anyone find out anything about a decent at home job opportunity, I'd be interested.
