Hi everyone, I"m sorry if this is posted in the wrong spot but I felt I NEEDED to post this for everyone who might be interested.
As some of you know I"ve been sick with Lyme and Co for 15 years. In these years I have tried desperately to find something legitimate to do from home making money to help out durring the month. It took 15 YEARS of digging but now? I finally LANDED it.. The work at home market has really opened up in the last year.
If you can sit in your bed with a laptop and be on the phone you can also get a REAL job making REAL money.
I am currently working from home for a Verification company thats been in business since the 1970s. I am not getting rich but I am averaging close to 100 dollars a week and I get paid weekly. This is for 15 hours a week. I do outbound customer service calling and NO SALES at all.
In the next 2 weeks I will also be starting another job from home doing INBOUND customer service order taking. You know those infomercials you see on tv at 3 am? I will be taking orders from people who order off of infomercials. This company if hired requires a 30 dollar fee for a backround check as you will be handeling people's credit card information.
Another tip about working from home is NEVER EVER PAY ANYONE TO GET A JOB.
I hope it's OK to list the links to these jobs here. I wanted to post this for anyone who might be interested because I know how badly money comes in handy in our situations and how hard it is to make it when we are home sick. Please know I am not getting kick backs of any kind for posting this. I am doing it to HELP anyone I can.
These companies get tons of applications a day so if you don't hear back from them right away don't worry. Some places can take weeks to a month to contact you...
Send me a message if you want to know anymore of what I'm doing.. Here are the links to the places to apply
I was also hired by this company but cant handle 3 jobs. They also take orders for infomaericals but also take orders for places like HSN, Pizza Hut and more...
These 3 places I KNOW are currently hiring.
You may also want to check out WAHM.com go to the message boards there. The people are great and they will help you look for a REAL job. There are MANY real job leads posted there you can do from home. Its all work at home moms.. Hope this helps some. Robyn

I used to do some work for work at home agents and can testify that they are reputable. Never had a problem getting a check and also received bonuses, I worked for a shopping channel and it was fun.
There is a great message board called work place like home, you can google it. It is a bunch of people who work for these companies, they know the answer for everything!!
Good luck everyone!

Thanks for the info. I will check them all out.
Did you get lyme in SC?
Hi Bothrobs There are MANY men that work at these jobs especially the verfast company I work with...
No I got it in NJ where I lived all my life until I moved to SC 4 yrs ago which unfortunately with my medical history was a HUGE mistake. No LLMD is 4 yrs and it's progressed so much that the muscles responsible for my swallowing seem to be going caput.. I"m now down to 90 pds and looking at 89 real soon because of stomach issue's and swallowing issue's. I"m seeing my GI tomorrow hoping he can help me..

Hi Patty You get to pick your own hours.. If you tell them I want to work between 10-12am yes thats the only time they will foward calls to you. Now with Verafast you can work any hours you want from 9 am to 9 pm. Being that Verafast is outbound calling, I can sign on any time of the day or night I want and work as long or short as I want that one of the advantages this company has over the others.. It's all personal preference but with all of these you do pick your own hours. hope this helps

I have one other question. If I were to do this would it ruin my chances of getting the disability I have been fighting to get for more than 2 years. Disability, if I get it, is a sure source of income. I would hate to kill my chances with low wage part time work and then get sicker.
It is a shame that our country works this way.
I hope everything went well at your appt. today.
