I think this blog is nice, but it gives information that's not new, not current, and provides no link to actually find a job in these categories.
Although somewhat informative, the information provided is useless without a way to locate the Companies who have these jobs available.
If the site owner would provide some meaningful information people would most likely use it.

All this info is great, but where do you apply for these jobs to work from home? I would love to be in customer service, Concierge, or a Call center job from home but I have no idea to find a company who offers this type of service. Any ideas?

Hello. I have actively been trying to get a full-time job in my field which is church music but to no avail not many prospects. I am currently working part-time in a church on a very limited income and will be graduating with a second Master's Degree. I'm thinking my age could be working against me since I am now 60 but I feel I am just starting my second childhood. Can someone out there please offer me some encouragement?

I am retired after 50 years in the machine shop trade. I even had my own shop... I see all these people looking for work. Finding a job is 98% maybe 99% attitude. You must be willing to do anything!!! spend 4 hours a day looking on the computer and 4 hours a day out knocking on doors 6 days a week. Sending resume's is not looking for work. You want results!!! Then work at it. EVERYDAY...ALL DAY. You may not get a job in your field...but get a job first...then try to get in your field after you feed your family.

Hello; Is there anyone out there who can tell me without the childish (sarcasam), the best place's to apply for a grant. I am an active adult who was terminated from my position in (2010). I was working with children at the time. a before & after care teacher. believe it or not, I've been looking for a job now for almost 3.5 yrs. I'm on unemployment, and I have excellent skills in that particular area of my past career. I've been trained in several field's,mostly medical,and believe it or not(I've never been hired for work in any of them).I've been praised and told how intelligent I must be,based on the awards I recieved, while attending career school's, and some of the other job's I've worked, and told (I see no reason why you should not get the job). but I was never hired. I've tried several work at home,including mail order,but I am not in the ignorant habit of (paying someone) to hire me. If that indeed was the case,I'd be defeating the purpose. and believe you me unemployment does not pay the way it use too. I cannot live off of the two digits,they are paying me every two weeks. after three yrs, of looking no one call's me back,instead they lead me on and tell me lie's. so I call them back. suddenly,they cannot be reached. call back they say. I call back its the same thing. does anyone know of any part time positions in the child care, and home care for senior's field,(non medical)who are hiring in my area? I use the new's paper's and net, and of course the grapevine as well as word of mouth. I am a christian and I thank God for what he's given me,especially life. but if you are among the living you know that nothing is free. you are going too have bill's, in order to live on a day to day basis.the only way to accomplish it and to pay them off is with a steady income. no one wants to depend on other's for their daily bread and survival. because that's when you find out who your true friend's, and love one's who truly care for you are. unless you're rich and bill free.

What we need is more real jobs to get the economy back on track.
Idrew up steel drawings and house plans for 40 years and now find myself out in the cold. If I was working again, I could be contributing towards paying off the deficit . Iam sure there are many more of us senior workers looking for work. What's out there?
