What do you think the benefits are for working from home? The same for working outside the home?What do you do and why? **********************************************I love working from home because I can be here anytime my children need me. I am always available when school calls and I can wear my pajamas all day if I wish!I sometimes miss working outside of the home. I miss dresing up every day and presenting myself to the public. I also miss the live adult conversations. What about you?

The most important this is that I am at home with my family if they need me. Also it says a ton of gas money, your not buying gas every week just so you can get to work. Also, you don't have to get up a certain time, take a shower and get ready for work and get there at a certain time. You can get up and go straight to work in your pj's if you wish :) I love it so much more then working away from home!!

I love getting to sleep in (of course when the kids are out of school because right now I am up at 6am reguarless) I dont know if you can post links here for business opportunities or not.. I would hate to get in trouble. I think I read as long as it was asked for info? Here is the new business I just started... http://website.ws/mothersw

I find that I'm more productive when working from home versus going into an office. I do not miss the office politics and back-stabbing that happen at the office, but I do sometimes long for real live face-to-face conversations with other people. Also, I save money on clothing and dry cleaning, as well as gas and auto wear-and-tear, by working from home. It's better for the environment too, because telecommuters do not add to air pollution.

There are many opportunities from home, which do not have no start up fees. Alot that do ask for fees are just scams. There are some I've ran into that were legit but you had to pay a fee for the background check, but that was it. Unless you looked into starting your own business, them of course you have to have the start up money! Hope that info helps out.

I just started a new business. The first 7 days are free. Then the cost is only $10.00 a month. If you get others to sign up your membership would be totally free and the income potential is just amazing. You could use myLot to make the $10.00 a month to pay for it. Message me for the link if your interested in checking it out.

I really want to work at home. I really need to find the right at home place that will hire someone that lives in new york. That has been my problem that they dont hire in my state. Thanks

I do most of my work from home. I am in direct sales, for an in-home party plan company. I do demonstrations for women and couples....but, they have to be 18 or older. I absolutely LOVE what I do and make great money and have great tax advantages. I make 50% commissions on my sales, as well as other incentives.

I have been a SAHM for 8 yrs. I do Sub at the school when they need me. I just applied for an Aide part-time and will find out Monday if I got it or not. I want a job at the school because I will be off when my kids are. I have missed the adult conversations over the 8yrs too.

I think working from home is great. You choose the hours, no worries about gas, traffic, daycare...etc. It also innovate you to thinking about starting your own business rather than being an employee forever. Great for moms and dads who want to spend more time with family. To keep up with the social world, make sure you use your free time outdoor or entertaining guests. And who says you can dress nice at home. Who said you have to wear your pajamas all day because you're home...pretty yourself up as you did when you worked out but wear your casual clothes so that if you have to step out for something it won't feel like a drag getting off your pajamas. If you find the right gig or business, working at home is the best!
