There are some jobs available working for, I think, GE Capital, which involves call center work, and collections that they will allow you to do from home....

There are a lot of those "home party" businesses, like the old Tupperware...where you organize get-togethers at a person's home so they can sponsor a party and you try to promote your products like that....Lots of CANDLES, Cheap Cookware, and low quality home products as well as makeup are sold this way.
You can also sell lingerie this way.

I know someone who can sew very well. She makes purses, and has parties where you can come pick out the fabric, the lining, and the fringe, and she will make it for you. The gals at the party got really excited about it, and spent about 50 to 75 bucks a piece, and some bought up to 3 purses (200 bucks total?) at a time.

You have to be outgoing, because the only way you will get someone to do a party is to talk to them first. I myself would never do something like that, but some people do well.

If you know what you do well, and figure out how to market what you do from home, well, then, there you go.

Good luck. I would love to do the same thing. I have a child, and hate fighting traffic to get to work.

I worked with them for awhile... Easy stuff- Pretty good pay. They pay for training too. They contract with Gap- Old Navy- 1800Flowers, GE Electrical. It's like a call center that they patch to your phone. You log on to their system and help people resolve credit card issues, order flowers, whatever group your assigned to. It paid like 9 bucks an hour.

I work from home, without selling, stocking or delivering. It's only $29 to get started, because all we do is switch stores.

It's call center work and you get paid per minute. I did ok with it but it all depends on the call volume and how much you talk.

This is for people that are serious and who don’t want to be misled as we have tried many things and have found a company that has been around for 21 Years and pays you to advertise for them. My wife and I just started and are doing well. It is not an MLM company and no selling, no deliveries or stocking product. My wife’s aunt has been working with this Company (Melaleuca) for a little over 3 years and home schools 3 kids and makes $9,000 a month. It is a 500 Inc company and the CEO is on the U.S. Chamber of commerce board. I can arrange a web cast with my wife’s aunt for you and you can decide by yourself and WE WILL help you be successful. It is an honest Win Win.
If you want to see a web cast (presentation) from your home let me know and I will arrange it as that truly is the way to see all about Melaleuca. Have you heard of it. We have just gotten started with my wife's aunts help as it is a team effort and it is fun. Just a quick F.Y.I. 8 out of 10 people that see the web cast join the company and 95?f the people that join re-order product each and every month. Let me know when you are ready and we will set up the web cast.

If you are really looking for employment, then i think it would be a good idea not to come across as an idiot. if you are asking a question about the existence of several ( more than one ) things, then you start with " are there any " . if you are asking about the existence of one thing, then you would use " is there a "

There are next to no jobs of Homeworking and the likes. There are several reasons for this.

Think about it as if you were a company. Would you send your expensive stock to an address that you had no confirmation of existing unless you have time to go there, and you still have no confirmation that they live there or will be there indefinetly, for the prospect that they might perform your task, on time and not just bin it all and split, or bin it all and get more, or take too long, or any other ideas.

Take envelope stuffing:
Leaflets to print cost maybe hundreds or Thousands of pounds, envelopes cost more money, labels more money. All this money that a company would be risking sending to someones house.

Then there is the issue that the private details of the clients of the company is going off a company premises, which as well as being risky is in potential violation of the Data protection act UK 1998 (Private data must be carefully protected by the company, if it is off premises, they loose some of the control of it), still guarantees that the Job will be done.

Lets do Data Entry:
Your a reputable company with a global customer base. Would you send your valuable customer Information to a random house for a stranger to look after. and Proccess it in some way.

Doing that would contravene the Data Protection act 1998 (The data is outwith their control, so could be seen as breaching the Act) and you would have to possibly pay to insure house as a place of Business.

Telesales:
Some Random company offers you a job where you phone a database of numbers trying to offer the products of that company to the General public. Trouble is, when you go to claim your phone expenses, the company has Ceased to be.

These all seem legite on the face, or like good Business ideas, but there are flaws or other reasons that it can’t be possible.

Why not just go and get a job like most normal people, or change your living habits to live within your salary. Or you could start a Business, But thats a different subject.

I am a stay at home mom, and I do several websites that earn me spending money. Nothing fantastic, but $5 here and there is $5 more than I would have had, right?

Pinecone Research pays $5 per survey completed, but only offer you 2-3 survey's per month. You have to find a banner to be able to join, it's not open enrollement, nor is it referral based.

http://www.netwinner.com/?signupcode=gilly2878 Netwinner is a game site, free to join, free to play, and you win points that go towards buying yourself gift cards for places like Best Buy, Game Stop, Wal-Mart, Target, and more. You can also win cash prizes, which are mailed out, I believe, not pay pal'ed. You earn 1000 points instantly for signing up with a referral code (the link already has one in it). No spam email at all, either.

http://www.treasuretrooper.com/161978 Treasure Trooper pays you to sign up at different sites, and what not. I highly recommend using a new email account for just that, because it's spam city.

Judy's Book allows you to review products, businesses and websites, and after you get to a certain level, you earn free gift cards. judysbook.com

So today I went in for an interview and I was going in for the 2nd interview by the head chief executive. now this is where it got weird, so she asked me about my previous jobs and said how much she liked that product over that product. then she started talking about her daughter? an her divorce ...then how she didn't finish college because she was making more money doing what she did for this company ... then she talked about how her teenage daughter is a handful... I just played it cool thinking she was using some sort of psychology thing to trick me into saying something stupid. the interview ended and she seemed happy an I was escorted to the door... now I'm freaking confused? is this normal behavior for an executive? like it felt like she was going to burst into tears at one point and tell me her life problems... is this normal? was she trying to see how I react or something?

Basically- no degree, although I have tried completing one in the past and stopped because of physical and mental health issues which were overwhelming to deal with along with going to classes full time. I'm not stupid and I am quite articulate. I am 23 and have only worked for about two years retail in high school and stopped working to go to university. I worked a few months in 2010 retail after I dropped out but it was only a seasonal position, and the only reason why I have not been able to constantly work is because of mental health issues. I had also tried going back to community college during my free time since i left university in 2008/9 and I had panic attacks while in community college, which made my anxiety worse from then on. Well recently I met a good doctor and he prescribed me some meds that are stabilizing my moods and I feel the best I've felt in years, and I'm ready to work. Thing is, I don't know how to get a job now since I've spent literally years being depressed and anxious doing nothing. I don't really have anything to put on my resume, and I never finished my AA degree either. All I've done is cashiering and although I do the job well and I get promoted easily when I do these jobs because I'm a hard worker and I try to go above and beyond what they ask of me,which is the attitude I have no matter what kind of work I'm doing as long as I'm getting paid. But I hate cashiering because it's too easy and I want a job that is more interesting. Any suggestions for me on how to get a job that is NOT Retail with the type of background I have right now? I also realize I have to go to college to get certain types of jobs, I am talking about what I can do right here right now.

Recently I have overlooked for a project at work and I am unable to accept it why? I am hard working, dedicated, maintain a very professional decorum, very cordial with my colleagues and bosses, give respect to one and all. Still people who take the p***, argue with managers, gossip mongers have been selected for some very responsible positions at work. I seriously can't get my head around it why, why unprofessional people who have no work ethics being selected over me, whereas I have a track record of excellent performance and never shy away from any work my manager ask me to do? I am at my lowest point and not getting hold of my manager to ask the question why not me, why them who can't even bother? I am feeling like a complete loser, giving years to this place, building my performance, trust and this is how I get rewarded. Why my life is so shit, anything I wish for turns to dust?

So I have a nice white button up shirt, business skirt and pants, and a suit jacket. I'm applying for a software development job and I'm very short and can look young so I'm trying to look adult, yet professional. I'm also attractive so I'm trying not to look too sexy. For the career fair I'm thinking of wearing just my nice shirt and a skirt with low heels. My reasoning being it's approachable and attractive without going overboard since the career fair hosts are mostly younger male recent grads. I want to be remembered but not intimidating. For my interviews I was thinking pants, suit jacket (power suit). My reasoning being it'll be older execs and HR people (mostly women) so less sexy with the pants but more powerful with the suit jacket. What do you think?!

I am currently a 1st year irregular college student taking I.T. I transferred schools and my majors never got credited. But it's okay because i am slowly getting the logics in programming in Java. This next semester i am taking a System Analysis and Design(SADSIGN) and i am getting nervous because even though i am pretty good at logics, i am not that good at coding. But since it is a case study, we will be on group, we will be four i think. Project manager, Analyst, Documentation, and the programmer. I am asking what jobs i can get after graduating I.T. because what if i graduated I.T. and still not that good at coding, i am hoping that there will be a jobs that will require less programming. Like Database manager or in Multimedia or in charge of Network. So is there jobs that doesn't require hardcore programming skills?
