I'm Currently Feeling:  | Does anyone work from home?
I have been thinking of looking for a job which allows me to work from home once the baby is born, does anyone have any advice regarding this?
I haven't looked into it really at this stage, but have seen a few advertisments but not always sure there truthful, like they will say "earn upto 2k a week!" etc.
I have several typing qualifications at a high level and am good with all microsoft packages..... any ideas? |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I wouldn't trust the 2k a week things. Wobbles told me that she luckily got to work through home from her current job - if I remember correctly. I'll let her explain to you more though, as it's not really my place to.
Im also interested in doing something from home to get a bit of extra £££ for when we get our own place. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I can't help Im afraid!
I am the only person in my company who works from home & I was lucky to get my position. Basically they were connected business wise with my last employment and I left there on bad terms & just thought I'd ask as its the same line of work and couple of months later he said yip.
Id stay away from those ads!
Working from home for a set wage is hard to come across now unless your self employed. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I own my own bookkeeping business that I work from home 3 days a week, but when I have my baby it will go down to 1-2 days a week. I'm still going to have a nanny 3 days a week, because I have to be able to run a business, so I'll be here to breastfeed and have them here to help out while I'm home and then the days that I'm gone. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | i found an ad online on a jobs website for stuffing envelopes, ive sent off for some info. i have looked at alot of ads for it and this one seems the best one as its actually on a jobs website, not just a random website... if that makes sense.
