Has anyone here ever tried any kind of ''work at home'' jobs?

All the ones I looked into were bogus.

I’m self-employed as a freelance writer. That job is “at home,” in my own office, separate from the other rooms in the house.

I worked at home for a while, but it was for a company I already worked for. I found it very difficult to do with a new baby. I worked when my baby slept, and that often meant working at odd hours of the night. It was stressful.

I freelance from home (illustrate animate design) and that works well.

I have a friend who does medical transcription. You have to take a class or so but you do it from home. She likes it well enough and can adjust her hours.
