Anyone know of easy work from home?

Medical transcription... I lived below a woman who used to do that. She told us it was pretty hard to get into but I was never sure if that was the truth or she just feared potential competitors in the area. She would take their audio notes and transcribe them to electronic form and then send it all back. I imagine that could be done over the internet now (this was 1998).

My stay at home mom neighbor across the street does the customer service crap. She does fairly well with it for a side income.
My wife's friend is a hospital nursing staffer. She basically has nurses call in who want on the backup list, then the hospital calls and says they need nurses. She then gives them a name or two from her list. Easiest frikkin job in the world and she gets paid more than me!
Why does she get paid more? Because the job is based in Florida so she gets Florida living wages but lives in WV.
ChadTower:
The nursing job is probably heavily union based, too.

I'm pretty sure you can write it off in your taxes. There are some companies that specialize in these dwellings, but my favorite is the one where you can put your desk in one room and have an arcade room in the other:
That adds some interesting ways to beat stress. Hang up after dealing with that irritating customer, nip next door for a couple of games of Robotron. Then be chilled to take the next caller or make the next million dollar sale.

I work from home and until I get around to pouring the floor for my new office, I will continue to have my desk in the gameroom. There is something so right about working with the sounds of the machines in attract mode and nothing smooths the edges out from a rough afternoon better than the silver ball.
