Work At Home Job Bank Review

Do you absolutely dread getting up early every morning and going to your 9-5 job? Does the alarm clock go off at 6am and you groan and just want to cover your head with the pillow and stay in bed? Or maybe you are just tired of worrying about money and just need some extra cash at the end of the month.

If you're like me, I would go to work every day and find myself wishing I could find something I could make money at in the comfort of my own home. I was so tired of getting up, getting ready and then going to a job where someone else told me what to do, when to do it, and how to do it. Then when I would get off work and finally get home (which is where I wanted to be), I didn't really have enough money to do the things I wanted to do anyway! I literally got to where I hated going to work and started obsessing about working at home. I tried alot of "get rich quick" crap and read alot of "starting a small business" junk. All I really wanted was a real job that i could get paid to do AT HOME!!! Nothing fancy, just a paying job i could do while at home or from my computer. My main concern was a steady income, flexibility and FREEDOM.

While surfing the web at my job one day (I told you, I was obsessed with this), I stumbled across a really interesting website - or a "job bank" that listed literally hundreds of paid work at home jobs. I couldn't believe it - all kinds of them. I'm talking real, honest to god jobs that you can look thru and pick which one would work best for you (it was kind of like the want ads in the Sunday classifieds). The jobs range from hourly pay ($10 and up) to commission and contract pay depending on which job you decide on (writing papers, sales, etc.,). I finally found what I was looking for! I was finally headed for FREEDOM.

However there are both pros and cons to the site:

PROS:

I was able to pick and choose which jobs I wanted to try. I narrowed it down to a customer service job at home. All that was required was high speed internet, phone with long distance, and good communication skills. It paid $12 per hour plus bonuses! Part time and full time was available (I went with part time, because I decided I also wanted to try one of the contract type jobs). I contacted them, they trained me over the phone and I was off. I got paid bi-monthly and it works just as if I was in a business office, except I'm AT HOME! Some of the work I can even do at Starbucks or wherever I can plug in a laptop. I love it and the people are great :-) Also, I like to write a bit, so I'm soliciting some of my stuff to one of the writing sites listed for contract pay. I just started with this, so I don't have results to report on this yet.

Also, this site constantly updates their listings - so the member is constantly receiving the newest job openings. There is part time, full time, contract and temporary work available. If you don't do well in one, just switch to something else. There's a wide variety of professional up-to-date opportunities, including clerical, financial, transcription, customer service, home operators, teaching online, even actual self starting businesses if you're into that sort of thing.

CONS:

You do have to have your own equipment. Usually a high speed computer, long distance phone access (if phone calls are required for the job), maybe a printer, it really all depends on the job you choose - but if you're like me, I was willing to do what ever it took to be able to work out of my house. The other small drawback is that it is a members only site - meaning you do have to pay a one time fee to be allowed access to the listings, but luckily it is REALLY inexpensive - a LIFETIME membership for only $18. (It was $24 when I signed up.) They came down on the price to help people out in this crappy economy. But the nice thing is there is nothing else to purchase and no hidden fees.

CONCLUSION:

I'm so happy with this site! I have been a member for over a year now and have never had to pay an additional dime. I started out with a part time customer service job and have moved on to a marketing/advertising position. I'm having so much fun working from home, and enjoy a more flexible schedule and spending time with my granddaughter! And I know if I ever get bored or unhappy with this job, there are more to choose from, because I have a lifetime membership. This small investment has been more than worth it to me and has paid for itself many times over. I have sang the praises of this site to everyone I know would like to work from home, have a part time job, or just make some extra money from home.

A friend of mine got 2 (yes 2 jobs!). She works one in the morning and another one at night. But she says she doesn't mind it at all, because she can do it while she works on other things at home.

Seriously, if you have ever considered the freedom of working from home or just working from your computer, this site is definitely worth taking a look at.
