Hi Guys,
This might be a long shot but I wondered if anyone works from home by telecommuting online. I'm looking for a full time job but in the meantime I need something to keep me out of trouble and bring in pocket money so I can afford to spoil my little girl with things like a trip to the cinema or the zoo.
I'm particularly interested in things like proofreading and copy editing as I'm a scientific writer and my skills transfer well but there are so many scams out there that I just don't trust any of them any more. The other thing that I would be interested in doing is data entry online. So far though the only ones that don't appear to be scams are only for US residents.
Has anyone found a site worth looking at? If so I'd be grateful if you would recommend them. Thx. Cathy xx

Hi Cathy I am in the process of setting up (hopefully!) my own business working from home and came across this link. It advertises jobs don't know whether any of them are suitable. Good luck! x0 -
Hi Cathy
Well when i first had to give up work due to chronic pain i had to do something to keep us afloat.
I worked on a "chatline" using the phone and computer!!
I was glad of it at the time because it was a sort of link to the outside world and at least i felt i was still doing my bit and didn't feel so isolated and depressed.

Thx guys. I'll look into these.
Incidentally I have just applied for a job as a medical researcher co-ordinator for arthritis research. I figure that if any employer would understand the difficulties then they should!!0 -

Tell us more about this "chatline" you worked on - was it a rude one? Most importantly, did it pay well? :-)
