How do women cope with two full time jobs, house work and general employment?

We Answered:

In general we don't. That depends on your definition of coping and what is entailed in those two different roles.

As a single woman, or even with just a partner who looks after himself some of the time, then, yes it is possible to 'cope' with organization. Even more possible if he does some of the chores such as cooking, shopping and emptying bins. But then, if he is contributing to the household in this way, it is not really two full time jobs, it is one and a bit as some things have been delegated.

In a house with babies or children under school age, we still don't cope. The second 'job' part of which is looking after the children is delegated to somebody else (the childcarers whoever they are). We don't have it all, we have a lot less than half, because we have all the additional housework from the children, lose out on the enjoyable bits with those children and still have to put in a full day's work when we have been up every night of the week with them.

We don't cope because we lose out in the quality time with our families. We spend our days rushing from one place to another, finding activities in the school holidays for the kids who just want to spend time really at home with their parents. We have to work harder in paid employment (as do our partners) to earn more money to spend on the kids when we do have time with them, to make it up to them.

Yes, on a day to day basis we cope, we dash around, we turn up where we are meant to, when we are supposed to, we pay the afterschool clubs and the holiday activity clubs, dash off and drop kids off at Grannies whilst we go to supermarket on a Wednesday night so we can get the washing in and tea made before 9pm because little Jimmy has PE on Friday and little Jane has just told you she has baking tomorrow.

We don't live well, we survive, we delegate, we make do, we compensate, we use our weekends to catch up on housework. In fact the whole family plays catch up.

All the work at home jobs I find is a scam. Is The National Work-at-Home Employment Center a scam?

We Answered:

It's kind of a catch 22 on this one. You pay for the information on work at home jobs. But in the fine print they don't guarantee that you will get the job. Just have access to jobs where you can apply for a job, not give you a job. Doesn't mean your going to get the job. A home based "job" is not going to bring you a sufficient amount of income. You will only be paid minimum wage. Most companies don't feel they need to pay anyone more then that because their gas cost is eliminated. What people don't realize, what about your spouse? Do they still have to drive to work every day? Grocery shopping, outings, and things like that are still going to cost gas. If your married and you have a minimum waged job, pretty much your entire pay check will be going to your spouse's gas tank with the gas prices these days. Then you still have the normal bills you need to pay each month as well, food, utilities, mortgage (rent for most people). Think about how much money you spend in that alone? If you need more income, I don't see how a minimum wage home "job" is going to cut it then. If a minimum wage job is sufficient then email me and I can give you a referal to apply for a home job. I won't guarantee that you will get the job, I have no control over that. The compeititon is really high for home based jobs. Another reason why they pay such a low amount to work at home.
If you really want to work from home, and want to make a sufficient amount of income, then I suggest you start your own home based business. There are many different kinds of home based businesses to get involved in. Child Daycare Centers, Catering, Scrap Booking, Telecommunications, Candle Making, Travel agents, Tax Preparations, Health etc. Most home based business cost under $500 to start. Depending on what you want to get involved in doing. Home based businesses have the same income opportunity as a tradition store front business like a shoe store, Subway etc. With a Home Based Business, you don't have all the over head expenses as you do with traditional businesses. Just about everything in your home, becomes a tax write off.
When you first start a business, their is no money made at first. You have to build it up. No matter what business you get involved in. The more effort you put into it and how hard your willing to work it, the faster you start making a sufficient amount of income. If you calculate the amount of hours you put into a regular job or a home "job" and the little you get paid, you would be better off starting a simple home based business, but make a lot more money and have more advantages.
In home based businesses, depending on which one you get involved in, it usually takes about 2 to 4 weeks to start making an average income. (about the same time frame as your first payroll period) Then as you keep working your business, 4 to 6 weeks to increase that income, and 3 to 6 months to be self sufficient. That is only if you put the time and effort into it. If you just say "I started a business" and don't put any time or the effort needed in your business, then you won't make an income.
Most people have full time jobs and run their business on the side. When their business reaches the income level they desire, they put their normal jobs down and continue with their business growing. Other's dive into it head first and tackle it and get it going faster. Either way, you have the same opportunity to make a sufficient amount of income.
I don't know what you enjoy doing, hobbies, interests etc, so I'm not sure which home based business to refer you over to. I can let you know what my husband and I have been involved in for over six years. For some more ideas you are more then welcome to take a look at my 360 page blog on home based business opportunities. There are over a half a dozen different ones to look at.
The business we chose to get involved in was more practical to us and something people used on a daily bases and wouldn't know what they would do without. It's also a major funding source for our non profit organization as well as others.We didn't have to worry about when money runs tight for them that they'd run to the nearest store and buy the items on sale, or have to cut back expenses and drop what I was providing some sort of service to make ends meet for them. We also wanted to make sure that they were registered with the BBB, who was involved with the company. They have also have been featured in several magazines like USA Today, Success, Fortune etc. Inc 500 also rated us the 22nd fastest growing company in our first five years. We are world wide with headquarters in in Farmington Hills Michigan, Carolina, Canada, Europe, Australia. So it's a pretty good sized organization to be involved in.
We partnered up with a 15 year old world wide company that offers services that people use every day and pay for anyway. Services like Local and Long distance telephone services, Internet, digital, video, VOIP, Satellite TV, and all the major cellular phone providers like Verizon, T-mobile, Sprint, AT&T, Nextell, Alltel etc. as well.
How many people do you know, or know of around the world that uses one or more of these services? That's another reason why we chose this business because everyone uses one or more. It's a service that people are not going to give up on because money is tight. People are going to pay their utility bills before they purchase the top brand of soap when they can easily run to the dollar store and buy a package of 4 for a dollar instead of a bar for $2 sort of thing. You know what I mean? We save people money on services that they are already using and paying for, and offer them services that they don't have, but would like to. As an example, say they have a local and long distance telephone service, they want Internet, I offer them the Internet as well as save them money on their local and long distance telephone service, they accept and then every single month these people pay these bills that they are going to anyway, every month we make a percentage. This is a very profitable business to get involved in. A lot of money involved in this industry!

I hope this information helps you.

Has any one tried the work at home jobs they advetise in the employment news?

We Answered:

Hi,

First things first, never ever give money to get work at home job. What ever reason they give, e.g. study material, catalog, processing fee etc. They are trying to scam you. Why any legitimate company would ask for money and they don't !

Making of $200 or $300 from work at home is alright, if some one claims more then it is a red flag for you.

As the ad is appeared in employment news, dosen't guarantee it's legitimacy.

Employment agencies providing work at home typing jobs?

We Answered:

Unfortunately, appleone.com and voit.com who are the two major headhunters for office type jobs; do not at this time, provide work separate and apart from their client's establishment. You would have to first be hired as an employee and then make arrangements to perform in-house assignments from your home.

On another subject, here's a legitimate work assignment which generates a reasonable income:

If you are an accomplished typist - word processor and have recently visited your local city college or university librarian, you can apply as a "certified" graduate typist, earning between $1.50 to $2.00 per page for a master or doctoral thesis. The librarian will provide you with a sample of the typing template (i.e., margin settings, font selection, page set up, etc.) in order to complete these projects using Microsoft Word. An average weekend income is about $300-$400 for two days work.

Good luck!

I am seeking online employment work from home jobs does anyone know good websites I live in Chicago IL..?

We Answered:

Affiliate marketing programs are here and real. I like these but unless you know what you are doing you might as well go work in a bar or something... I mean it isn't an easy ride earning money like that.. basically how much you earn is determined by how good you are and how much time and effort you're willing to put into it.,,.
