Finding the Telecommuting Work Life Balance - 6 Simple Tips

A telecommuting job from home can be an exciting opportunity for anyone. While working from home is great, it can take a little getting used to, especially since you will have more free time than your used to. Since you are in charge of your time and when you get your work done, you will look at your job in a whole new way. Here are some simple steps to get you started on your new venture working from home.

1. Make an appropriate workspace - Working from home is really no different than working in an office when it comes to the space you are using. Make sure you have an area in your home that you can go to that is quiet and you won't be disturbed. This includes a desk that is set up for you to comfortably maneuver throughout the day. Remember, you will be sitting at your desk in your home office like you would if you were in any other office, so you want to make sure it's comfortable. You should be able to sit in a position that does not cause strain or discomfort on your neck, back wrist etc. Invest in a nice desk and chair; you will thank yourself in the long run.

2. Create a system to track your time - Depending on how your company is set up, you may be required to enter your hours online each week. I recommend using a notebook or calendar system to write down this information, especially for those busy days when you are juggling several projects. It's easy to think you will remember what you've done but trust me, I learned quickly that the days go by too fast and it's really hard to recall what I did each day!

3. Keep track of your bills - Most home office expenses are tax deductible in some form or another so keep track of all your utility bills, home improvement bills, internet, phone etc. Contact your accountant for further information as it applies to your state.

4. Set boundaries - With having such a flexible work environment, it's easy to get sidetracked watching TV or doing the laundry. If you set boundaries for yourself, you will find you are much more productive. I tend to work in 2 hour blocks of time because that works best for me. It may take some trial and error to find what works best for you. Don't be afraid to try new things. In most instances, you are probably free from the typical 9-5 hours of getting your work done. If you work better at night, go for it (assuming you are still meeting your deadlines).

5. Check your insurance -Does your insurance company have you rated as a high mileage driver? Call to inquire and let them know you are now working from home, there is a chance this may reduce your premium. If you are bringing clients to your home or if you are driving for business purposes, your insurance agent needs to know this because there may be special endorsements that need to be added to your policies. It is best to contact your insurance agent to find out the laws in your state.

6. Take a look at your budget - Since you are working from home, the chances are pretty good you are not spending as much as you were when you were driving to and from work. Working from home not only allows greater flexibility, it can also mean big savings on your budget. You will likely find savings in categories like gas and dining out. Since you won't be driving to work and you likely won't have the typical office lunch out, this can add up to big savings. You could apply this extra cash to savings or paying down debt.

Working from home is a great opportunity to create a flexible lifestyle for yourself. I am lucky enough to only need a laptop and a broadband card to get my job done. This means I can travel and still work from anywhere I choose to go. What opportunities do you have now that you are working from home? Take a few moments to jot down some goals you have been putting off or some things you have always wanted to do. Are you going to spend this newfound free time watching TV or start living your dream?

How to Convince Your Boss Telecommuting is a Good Idea

There are many different ways on how to convince your boss telecommuting is a good idea. If you are like many other individuals who go back and forth to work on a daily basis, you have probably played with the idea that it would be rather nice to work from the comfort of your home.

There are many different reasons why many individuals feel as if working at home is the best choice for them. Many have young children that need to be cared for, others have medical conditions, and then there are some that simply want to fall out of the loop of office politics.

Telecommuting is an excellent means of working at home. Here, you will learn the steps on how to convince your boss telecommuting is a good idea.

What is Telecommuting?

Telecommuting is the process in which an individual works in a location that is considered to be "remote", or "outside" the standard place to conduct the work. The work that is performed is the same work that would be performed if the same person were to travel back and forth to a particular place of employment.

Typically, the work that is performed in the telecommuting fashion is done so with a number of tools such as a computer system, remote software, telephone system, and even a fax machine. In some cases, work may be required to be dropped off at a certain location once a month or more.

The Benefits of Telecommuting

There are many different benefits associated with telecommuting. While many reasons or advantages for this type of work may be personal in nature, there are other base benefits as well. These advantages include the following:

1. This type of work may assist in preserving certain types of resources on behalf of both the employee, as well as the employer. Examples of resources may include the fact that fuel is preserved, office space is opened up for other tasks, and office supplies are also used less as the individual working at home typically provides their own, or rations what is issued to them in a more effective manner than if they were in the office.

2. Many who work from home find that they experience illness less frequently than if they worked in an outside job. One, they are not exposed to the germs and illnesses being passed around in the workplace, and the second reason is that they are not subjected to the stress that is often associated with a job that is performed outside the home.

3. In addition to the previous benefits, it has been found that increased levels of productivity are experienced when an individual works in the home. The workplace is loaded with distractions to time, and the hours are carefully guarded by a time clock. When one telecommutes, they are no longer distracted with unnecessary things, and they can set the hours that they work best!

Tips for Selling the Idea to Your Boss

If you are looking for tips for selling the idea to your boss, you can use the items mentioned in the benefits section of this guide as a starter. The idea is to veer away from the ideas on why the position of working remotely benefits you, and go with the ideas in which the concept of telecommuting will benefit the boss, and the business that you work for in general.

One example may include saving time and money on resources and space within the workplace. The next may be that individuals who telecommute are more apt to get the job done more quickly, and stay with the job much longer than those that work in an outside place of employment.

Looking on how to convince your boss that telecommuting is a good idea? The ideas in this guide will do just that!

How Can I Find "Bonafide" Work at Home Jobs?

I bet if you are reading this you have tried and tried so hard to come across some really good and "Bonafide" home jobs. You probably spent a lot of money to get a bunch of nothing or just maybe you are just too LAZY to do the footwork to find out if there is actually something worthwhile out there. I am not trying to offend you... but for those of you who are in this category, you know I am talking about you!

Anything in life requires research. You have to find out in order to try it. Sometimes it takes trial and error on our part in order to find out. Everyone has their own opinion on what is legit, what works for them and what recommendations we can give. Well leave it to people like us (thank god for people like us), who have to do the research, spend the money and learn from our mistakes.. We are those that spread the word on what companies call themselves "LEGIT" and what companies identify themselves as "BONAFIDE" companies out there so you don't have to. Your task is to find us out!

I realized throughout my research of work at home or telecommuting jobs, many online sites claim they are the legit ones, or just have the words legit period. This scares me a bit. I have literally eliminated the word "legit" out of my career vocabulary. If I had missed some, then they will be updated soon... So with my background in Unemployment Insurance, I decided that I would search for employers that fall under the guidelines of the official State regulations. These are the guidelines that I used to base my search:

No fixed rule can govern when employment is "bona fide," but the following factors should be considered:

1. The manner in which the employment was obtained.

2. Whether the employment was in the regular course of the employer's business.

3. Whether the employer had previously hired someone for the job.

4. Whether the employment is in your usual occupation. Now due to the economy, we have broadened our skills which allows us to open our own variety of labor markets.

5. Whether the wages for the employment is equivalent or close to the wages of your usual occupation.

You have to really do your legwork (RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH) in seeking what it is out there. I found it and I am eager to say these programs are working for me. If someone told you that you can do all this stuff for free and you can find online jobs quick, well they are certainly lying. You DO have to spend some time and of course, some money if you plan on being SELF-EMPLOYED and starting your career within it. Think of it as an investment for your newfound business. When you see a lot of ads indicating "Don't get scammed!" well true, take heed, but every last one of us has a different experience and we all have different tastes on what can earn us money. In order to succeed sometimes you have to take a loss in order to get a gain. Not to say your destined for failure, I am merely saying that you should be "smart" and do your homework before you step into anything. So all in all you will have to spend something! And don't forget RESEARCH!

How to Easily Find Freelance Writing Jobs in a Recession

Have you ever wondered, "Where are all the freelance writing jobs?" Have you ever sent off questions to successful freelance writers, asking something along the lines of:

"I just can't seem to land any gigs right now. What could I be doing wrong?" Or,

"I've sent out so many queries but I haven't heard anything. Am I doing something wrong?" Or,

"Do you have any advice on what I can do to get some work? I'm just not having any luck."

The list goes on.

Yes, the Economy Sucks! But, It Can Be to Your Advantage

We're probably in a recession right now, no matter what the official definition is. But, this can be to your advantage. One of the best things about being a freelance writer is that it is a career that thrives - no matter what he economy at large is doing.

Why is this? Basically because we live in the age of information. Every day, online searches are conducted. What are people searching for? Information. Luckily as a freelance writer, that's YOU! No matter what is happening in the world, it needs to be written about. So, how can you capitalize on the lean times right now? Following are two tips.

2 Ways to Capitalize on the Recession as a Freelance Writer

1. Change Your Mindset: Many freelance writers till think of themselves as, well, freelance writers. A better way to think of yourself is as an information provider. Why is this important?

Because information is where it all begins. Email campaigns, newsletters, web content, blog postings, social media marketing, etc. It is all information. Information that has to be written by someone - preferably you.

Once you start viewing yourself like this, you unclog that mental blog of a "freelance writer looking for work" to an "information provider that can help businesses compete."

In spite of these economic times, commerce goes on. And, luckily for freelance writers - especially those interested in online writing jobs - many companies are pouring more and more of their ad budgets into online marketing because traditional media is just too expensive. Proof?

A survey of 600 marketing professionals were asked how the current economy is affecting their marketing decisions. They responded in the article, Marketers Plan to Cut Budgets, Increase Online Spend. Their responses were summed up as follows:

"MarketingProfs has observed that online marketing is also turning into a venue where marketers can stretch their dollar while accurately targeting leads and customers. 60% of all marketers surveyed stressed that they would be increasing their online budgets while 85% would be reducing their use of traditional marketing vehicles." [Source: MarketingPilgrim, online at MarketingPilgrim dot com]

This presents a wealth of opportunities for freelance writers in the form of web content, SEO articles, blog posts, email marketing campaigns, etc.

When you change your mindset from freelance writer to mindset, there's one more thing you need to do - capitalize on hot trends.

2. Recognize and Capitalize on Trends: This is easy to do. Simply watch the news and read major newspapers (online or off). What are some hot topics in the news right now that you can think of?

Some right off the top of my head are foreclosures, bank failures, green (as in environmentally friendly) topics, etc. You can capitalize on all of these by offering content to websites, newsletter publishers, magazines and blogs that specialize in these niches.

For more "hot" freelance writing niches, get the 2008-2009 Freelance

Writing Jobs Report. It's an in-depth analysis of all the sectors that present a wealth of freelance writing opportunities - now and for the next couple of years.

It also offers advice on how to recession-proof your freelance writing career, as well as some ideas for creating your own information products to sell.

You don't have to look hard to find freelance writing jobs, you just have to "look smart!"

Finding Telecommute Employment - 1, 2, 3

Finding Telecommute Employment: The dream of just about everyone is to work from home. Some call it the 30 second commute down the hall to the laptop. The challenge is in finding these jobs.

First, what is a telecommute job and, more importantly, do they even exist?

They involve earning your living just like always, but you never leave home. All of your work is done over the internet. And yes, they definitely exist. Many people now earn their living from the kitchen table. Some are salespeople, others are data entry people and others do all sorts of things as they work from home.

If you seek telecommute employment, you can start on the internet itself. Start with simple searches like "work from home jobs" and see where that takes you. Also,

Forums are a great way to meet people who can offer experience or are doing what you hope to do. Be specific in your web searches, name career names, product names or companies you want to inquire about.
One thing you should never have to do is pay up front for information or leads. Some of these places are expert at collecting your money and little else. The information you seek is free.
The basics you will need at home is internet access, a computer and some area to work in. If you will be involved with talking on the telephone, make sure that your work area can be made silent while you are on the phone.
What is becoming extremely popular is for people to create their own work from home. What is involved here is building their own web site.
This may seem like rocket science, but it actually isn't. It does require patience, though and the will to stay at it. You can have a web site page hosted for free like at Squidoo or Hubpages.com or, for a tiny fee, at other places.
Google has an excellent free library of lessons and courses that can be taken free. So do the other two places mentioned above.
You'll need something to sell so you make inquiries about affiliate programs where basically, someone else produces a product and you sell it. They handle shipping and everything. It's the best way to start creating your own form of telecommute employment.

Whatever you do, remember that the internet is still in its infancy and there are not many rules, regulations or laws to govern it. It is much like the old wild American west. There are plenty of con men and snake oil salesmen who will take your coin and hand you dirt.

Telecommute employment is real and it is growing by leaps and bounds as office and shop space is becoming more and more expensive and companies become desperate to save money. You can also create your own. Whatever you do, go slowly and you will do well.

By the way, do you want to learn more about how to create your own telecommute employment using many other online opportunities? If so, visit my family home incomes bulletin board at Telecommute Employment.

Guarding Your Personal Information When Applying For Telecommuting Jobs

When I find a good job lead, I will post it on several work at home forums with the word "Unresearched" in bold. Of course it simply means the job lead hasn't been well...researched. A lot of scammers are very good at making a not-so-legitimate job very legitimate sounding which is why doing your own due diligence is so very important. A lot of times people will respond to my post with "Thanks for the great job lead! I applied." Wait a second! Back up! You said you applied?

At this point, I'm hoping they saw the first and bold word Unresearched at the top of the page before jumping in with both feet and shooting off an email with all their personal information on it.

First, you should only have your first and last name and email address on your resume unless you're 150% sure it's a reputable and legitimate company. Too many times people have provided sensitive information that ended up in the wrong hands. It's much too late to think of it after the fact.

Finding a telecommuting job is a huge and stressful task as is and you don't need to deal with the extra stress of not knowing where or who has your personal information.

In no particular order, here are some ways to conduct your research.

1. Check with BBB.org to see if there are any complaints. If they aren't listed it doesn't necessarily mean they are good to go.

2. Check with Federal Trade Commission - ftc.gov

3. Check the company for a physical location. A legitimate company will freely provide street address and telephone number.

4. Check if they have a website. Sometimes a website will have warning signs if it isn't legit such as grammar and spelling errors, poor English and so forth.

5. Ask around various work at home forums if anyone has/had any experience with them.

6. Check the company's references. Request a list of their employees or ICs or contractors and then contact them and ask how it has worked for them.

These are just a few ways and the most important one to live by? If it sounds too good to be true, then it usually is.

Remember, never give your social security number, credit card, passport information or drivers license to anyone unless it is requested and you know for sure the company is reputable and legitimate.

Don't Join the Line at the Unemployment Office - How to Keep a Work at Home Job

You've landed the perfect work at home job; so now what? Part of establishing yourself as a home-based professional is to advance your career. With traditional brick-and-mortar type jobs, advancing is much easier due to daily in-office performance assessments. Telecommuting jobs offer different advancement challenges; especially since there is already distance between you and your employer. Here are some tips on how to keep and advance in a home-based job.

One of the most crucial points in any home-based job is to make you known. Always be on time to work and allow instant messenger, email and voice accounts be ready to receive calls. If not done by your employer, set a designated schedule so co-workers and clients can reach you immediately. When not working, allow voice mail messages or other communication devices to specify your hours of availability, and when a caller or email sender can expect to receive a reply. If able to, work beyond your posted hours and still show availability. This will show your company you are truly dedicated to your job and not just a "clock watcher".

Another tip is to be proactive rather than reactive. If there is work that needs to be done, and you are capable of doing it; go ahead and get the job done. The same can be said when on company time and all work has been completed, to either ask for additional work or make use of the time for professional development. Reading-up on company news, new clients and changes to business protocol will help you become better informed about the company; especially if one day, you are offered a supervisory position.

The most important tip any work at home employee can use it to take advantage of feedback. Be sure to thank your supervisor for any positive feedback and implement any suggested changes. Keeping a supervisor happy and having excellent evaluations will help establish you as a long-term employee. This will also help make the transition from one work at home company to the next easier, as an excellent performance record and satisfied supervisor will boost your telecommuting employment references.

Finding Your Telecommuting Work Life Balance - Organizing Your Space

If you work from home, you probably find yourself in the position where you just don't have the time to keep your office clean and organized. Something always comes up that is more pressing and you put off organizing that pile of paperwork and all of a sudden, you look around, and your office is a complete disaster.

This has happened to me more than once. It seems like I just blink and it looks like a tornado came through my office! I began to realize that when this happened, I was less productive and I found it hard to concentrate and get my work done. I know it doesn't seem like that big of a deal, but having a disorganized workspace can create chaos in the mind and robs us from working at a our full potential.

For most of us, if we worked in an office, we would not keep our desks piled up with paperwork and in complete disarray. It should be no different when working from home. Take a few minutes at the end of the day to put things away and get your space organized. It will make a huge difference how you begin the next day!

If you find that you don't have the right supplies to organize your space, it is worth investing a little money to get your space the way you need it. Just because you work at home does not mean you should skimp out on buying these things. If you worked in an office this would be provided for you so don't feel bad about equipping yourself with the tools you need to do your job effectively.

Data Entry Telecommuting - A Simple Way to Earn Money From Home

If you're looking for a simple way to make money from home, consider data entry telecommuting. Data entry telecommuting involves entering data for your employer from a remote location, i.e. your home. You don't have to maintain a physical presence at the place of your employer. In fact, you will probably never meet him or her in person as he might be located anywhere in the world.

What kind of data will you have to enter? That depends on the data entry telecommuting job you choose. One popular job consists of transcribing audio files or handwritten notes into a typed online documents. These audio files might be recorded speeches, interviews or meetings, and the handwritten notes could include diaries and conference notes.

Another common data entry telecommuting job is doing online research. You look for specific information as instructed by your employer, and you copy the information you find into a document or spreadsheet. You might also have to organize or format the information so it becomes more readable.

Yet another job could require you to enter a brief description or tags for each piece of a huge collection of images or photos, helping your employer to easily categorize his digital assets.

While you can't expect to make a fortune with data entry telecommuting, many people have found that they earn more than enough to pay the bills and support their families.

Also, don't underestimate the lifestyle benefits and freedom you can usually gain by working from home. Many data entry telecommuting jobs allow you to set your own hours. You don't have to drive to your job so you can spend more time with your loved ones.

If you need money now, like I mean in the next hour, try what I did. I am making more money now than in my old business and you can too: read the amazing, true story, in the link below. When I joined I was skeptical for just ten seconds before I realized what this was. I was smiling from ear to ear and you will too.

Finding and Becoming a Telecommuting Employer

Telecommuting is the term coined by an American, Jack Nilles in 1973. It is also called as e-commuting or e-work or tele-work or work-at-home. Telecommuting is a work arrangement where employers take advantage of the various technological advances and enjoy limited flexibility in working hours and working location. It is a broader term referring to substituting telecommunications for any form of work that requires travel, which consequently eliminates the distance limitations of telecommuting. Some work from home while others use mobile telecommunications technology to work from any location. All telecommuting employers work for tele-workers but not all tele-workers are telecommuting employers.

The motto is 'work is something you do, and not something you travel to.' A successful telecommuting program needs a management style which is mostly based on results and not on a close inquiry of a telecommuting employer. Most legitimate telecommuting companies do not charge you to work for them rather they will pay you for your work. The only exception would be a freelancing company which will take a fee from both you and the employer as a part of the agreement. The fee is usually very small, around 5% of the total budget, and considering that you don't have to travel to work, and you pay no immediate income tax on your earnings, this is a very small fee indeed.

One option for starting your own online business is to become a telecommuting employer. These are people who hire others to work on a team, and then bid on projects on freelancing websites. As long as onedoes his job well, he will have a guaranteed paycheck, as they control all of the terms of the agreement, from the amount of the bid to the salary of their employees. Telecommuting jobs allow you to work on your own schedule but with the given tasks and responsibilities.

The greatest disadvantage to a telecommuting employer is that they work for someone else and their job stability is dependent on their companies. Another disadvantage is that the competition among them is very high. Many companies are very choosy and the pay is based on their terms.

Today, there are many obstacles to overcome to get a good job. Many skilled workers are not able to get to the place of work due to family situations or physical disability. Telecommuting employers are very lucky to hold this job as they can choose to work where they want. Telecommuting jobs provide great opportunities for one parent homes or for homes where only one parent can work. Some work places do not have the facility to accommodate handicapped people, for those people telecommuting work gives them security and they can earn from where they live.

Telecommuting employers were in the past proved their job to be very difficult due to lack of technology. But nowadays, it is easy to become a telecommuting employer because of the advancement in technology and internet and working from home has been made easier and more convenient.

Data Entry Telecommuting - Important Considerations Before You Start

Thanks to the increasing capabilities of computers and faster Internet connections, more and more people are taking up data entry telecommuting jobs. These jobs are for serious, patient and committed people only. To succeed in this occupation you need accuracy, speed, attention to detail and a certain willingness to learn new things.

If you do not have the data entry skills that a potential employer asks for, do not think that you are not fit for the job! If you want it badly enough, you can try and train yourself. There are plenty of guides over the Internet and also plenty of certificates you can get in specialties like word processing, audio transcription and data management.

So how do you get started?

If you'd like to find a traditional telecommuting job where you work as an employee for a company, your best chance may be to convert your existing job into a telecommuting position by convincing your company to let you work from home. Companies rarely hire telecommuters from outside their companies; they already know their employees and it is a lot easier for them to work with people they have an existing relationship with.

You also have to be aware that there are many scams out there waiting to take your money. You probably won't find a good data entry telecommuting job through online classifieds promising to show you a way to make "millions of dollars working from home". Never, and I say never, pay sites or companies in order for you to work from home! Do NOT believe scammers and don't pay anything. Legitimate employers don't charge you to hire you or to review your application.

A great alternative option to consider is becoming your own boss. To prepare yourself for this possibility, make sure you read all you can about data entry telecommuting for self-employed persons. The more you know, the better your decisions will be.

Earn Money From Home by Telecommuting

Are you confused by the term "telecommuting"? Telecommuting simply means doing work from the comfort of your own home. This trend is catching on fast thanks to the internet. Telecommuting allows people to earn money from home and is invaluable to people who cannot travel to work daily.

The foremost advantage of telecommuting is that you never have to leave home and it leaves you with ample time for family. For physically handicapped people especially, telecommuting is a boom since it allows them to work with ease; something they cannot do if they have to travel to work daily.

This is also convenient for mothers with small children. It allows them to be near their children while also saving the expenses of a daycare facility. Telecommuting also cuts down on transportation costs. Since you are no longer traveling to work, you save the daily expenses of a car or train ride to and from the office.

The most common telecommuting jobs include transcription, telephone customer service, and coding. Jobs of this nature can be found in the job search engines like Monster and Google. These jobs are easy to find but demand a certain amount of prior training. The job market is growing at an average of fifteen percent annually and is generating hundreds and thousands of jobs every year.

You can get information regarding telecommuting jobs from various sources. There are multiple websites that show job listings in various fields for those interested in data entry, transcription, sales, writing, publishing, and more. Some websites allow you to post your resume. Your profile will be placed in a page of potential employees for prospective employers to browse, thus, providing great advantages in networking.

The burdens of working from home cannot be denied but experienced people feel that the advantages of telecommuting are far greater than the disadvantages. It is usually the employee who sets the working hours according to his convenience. It is also far easier to work from home since the disturbances of an office are absent. As a result, duties can be performed more efficiently.

There is also no distraction of office politics. In fact, you needn't even always work from home. Thanks to the nature of such jobs, you can work from anywhere - public places like coffee houses, libraries and even when you are on a vacation.

Legitimate job holders in this field will testify to the fact that telecommuting is a far more satisfactory option than the normal work routine and, since it is free from additional hassles, workers in this field make rapid progress in work and income.

Payments vary in this field. While some companies may pay you the same money as your office going counterparts others may pay somewhat less. The important thing to remember, however, is the fact that the savings has also become a part of the monthly income.

Telecommuting saves the expenses of daily travel, business attire, and meals and this increases the value of whatever you might get from the company.

Data Entry Telecommuting - Living Life While Paying the Bills

Data entry involves the conversion of data. That sounds complicated but it isn't. For example, converting a dictated MP3 audio file to written text is one form of data entry. You literally don't have to have any special knowledge whatsoever to do the job, and you can do it from home.

Sounds easy, right? Most people think that earning a comfortable income while working from home on your computer and with no prior experience is too good to be true, or only for geeks.

But working from home no longer has to be a far away dream. You can get started working in a data entry telecommuting job today and turn your goals into reality.

There are several way of working in this field. You could either be employed by a company that allows you to work from home, or you could become a freelancer. If you're employed, you will most likely receive a fixed salary in exchange for working a fixed amount of hours. You might also receive some benefits, like medical insurance. If you happen to fall sick, the company you work for will keep on paying you.

If on the other hand you're a freelancer, you can work as much or as little as you like, and set your own hours and pay. You can work longer hours if you need more money, or work less if you want to take a break. However, you wouldn't receive any benefits or compensation if you fall sick.

The first step is to make up your mind which of the two options you prefer. If you're not sure, you could try both options for a while, either at the same time or one after another, to see which one suits you best.

Another task is for you to decide which kind of data entry telecommuting job you are best suited for. The best way to do this is to try out each one at least once. You could either be converting audio into text, collecting data from surveys, participating in surveys or compiling lists of specific data like names, numbers or email addresses.

Choose the work that fits you best. Remember that the work should be fun and doable in a timely manner. The faster you are at completing your work, the more time you have to enjoy life.

We all know that some fads come and go. Just when you get used to one thing, you suddenly find it gone and something else takes it place. There has been some controversy over whether or not Telecommuting is simply a fad that could go at any time.

Some people who want to get into a telecommuting position are afraid of giving up their current onsite positions; as they're worried that the telecommuting concept will suddenly drop like flies and they will find themselves out of a job.

So, that brings up the question of whether Telecommuting is here to stay or not. Let's take a look at where telecommuting is at this point in time:

o Telecommuting has been around for many years, even before desktop computers became available in most homes. It started out as only a few select people working from home and slowly grew from there.

o Some telecommuting companies are thriving today. While telecommuting started with employees performing one or two tasks from home; things have progressed to the point where some companies hire only people to work from home. Some of these companies, mainly customer service ones, are bringing in a lot of business.

o The cost of running a business has increased as the prices of everything increases. A lot of small businesses are looking for ways to cut their spending to bring in more profits. One of the best ways they're finding to save money is by creating telecommuting positions to eliminate some of the bigger cost items.

o Some of the smaller cities are facing a problem with having a lack of skilled workers living locally or ones that will work for the pay the business could afford. A lot of people that have the qualifications needed for some positions are going to the larger cities to get employment that could sustain the lifestyles they need. The smaller businesses sometimes have to resort to finding people to do the job clear across the country.

Based on this information, telecommuting is only growing stronger. That makes it unlikely to be fizzling out anytime in the future. If anything, it only proves that it will continue to grow and become more readily available in many types of positions.

Skeptical minds, however, have to wonder why telecommuting doesn't have a stronger hold in the employment industry that it should have by now. The reasons for this all have to do with misconceptions of how a telecommuting job would work.

There are still a lot of employers that continue to have the mindset that working from home means a lot of slacking off time due to there not being someone to keep a watchful eye over them. This may be the case sometimes; it's not the norm for most telecommuters.

Those who work a job from their home office tend to perform their best work because they're in a comfortable environment, don't have the stress of getting to and from work and because they don't have a boss looking over their shoulder.

Once the misconceptions are eliminated then more telecommuting jobs will start popping out of the woodwork. As prices of gas and other items increase, employees will be leaving their onsite positions to save money. The employers will probably come to the point that they would have to allow telecommuting for some positions in order to keep people working for them.

With that said, telecommuting is here to stay, but will continue to grow at a snail's pace. New technology is always coming out and some of them will be perfect solutions for performing a job from a remote location while keeping data safe and ensuring their workers aren't slacking off.
