After 1.5 years of being out of work, I am finally back working 40 hours a week. It is tough working that much, I am back to having so little free time!

I am self-employed, and I would definitely love to have more hours that produce more income.

I have been looking for work, Going to 15 job interviews last month, just seem to put me further into the debt. It took money to clean clothes, use gasoline, print & copy resumes, and a lot of other little stuff. This is on top of time it took sometimes as much as 2-3 hours per interview. It just wasn't producing the results I wanted and getting me deeper in debt. The only thing is I got from it is getting deeper in debt.  

I have been looking for ways to make money online with no start-up costs. I have decided to get into marketing online full time and see if I can I do it. They are some great possibilities out there.

You do need to be careful, I have already been ripped-off by scum. Like this one idiot, you can make websites for a dollar a month including the domain name and then refer others. Well what this rip-off artist didn't say was that you had pay for the domain name @ $18 a year. You also had to buy the email package @ $5.69 a month to get the dollar a month rate. So the dollar-a-month now becomes $8.19 a month and I can getter better rates else where.

I was lying in bed the other night, looking up at the stars, and thinking, "Where in the heck is my roof?"

I work between 32-36 hours per week.  The nice part is that I can work from my home as well.  I have been at my job for almost 12 years and love it!

I just went back to work after a leave of absence and I really didn't want to go back. I am in school and will finish by the end of the summer so I am trying to look at it as a temporary thing for now. I only work about 20-25 hours a week but being back at work has caused me a lot of stress and physical pain that I have to deal with now so I'm trying to make the best of a bad situation :-

In some ways I like my work situation. I work between 15-30hrs/wk. It can very alot week to week but at the same time all my 4 jobs are really flexible and I can make other plans if needed like making doctors appt, taking a planned trip or when I get sick. No benefits but my husband has good benefits through his work. It has also been nice getting weekends off. All of my previous jobs were real hell holes working all hour of day and night, weekends and no benefits. At least these jobs let me pick my own schedule.

I was working 22 hours/week. The rest of the hours I spent stressing about work. It seemed to follow me everywhere even when I slept. I had a terrible group of bosses and dealt with the people of Miami. Some were absolutely lovely, but in general the customer base in Miami can be quite challenging. I went ahead and resigned because I couldn't take it anymore. I felt like I was in hell and I was constantly depressed and anxious. I don't think that was necessarily the right choice, but it helped me emotionally and physically to get out of there. It's been 4 months and I haven't been called for any interviews. Very depressing situation. I wish I could work from home or in a setting that didn't deal with the public.

I am looking for a part time job right now.  I haven't worked outside the home for 3 years due to a back injury but I am ready to go back and find something part time.....  Not much employment here in Southern Ohio

 ;D I only work like 6 hrs a week at church. Yes I put much more time then that, but I only get paid for 6.

I love my job! I am the one that designs the church bulletin, send  out mail and do flyers for activities or raffle, BBQ tickets, - it's like a craft thing for me plus helping in church is a blessing.  :angel11:  :peace:  :wave:
