    Women Only Hi All, long time no see, but..

    ..some things have happened in my life I want to share with other women, probably some of the men eventually. I lost all hope in going on the road I guess it's been two summers ago. I was up our Smith River camped next to @abnorm and sweet P as don't want to screw up and use her name without...

    Social security

    This is true as I had to look it up before I get hired somewhere. I only want part-time or maybe 3 or 4 month seasonal (temp work through agencies). I can make up to X amount of money without paying any taxes, and, my SS remains the same. One thing I didn't check was the supplemental payment...

    I just zero'd in on two jobs I really enjoyed. Both were in factories, but I liked that better than the desk jobs I had. These were pretty exceptional jobs for me as they were very "light-weight". One was picking orders, and packing them (bulk supplements) and the other was pulling little...

    Feedback on "work from home" jobs..

    So how do I show them, on a resume, I'm competent if I don't have any jobs (of any time-length) to show them? If I have an assessment test that would be great, as I'd like to know how good I am with what I've done in the past like Microsoft Software for example. How about a cognitive test, I...

    I did find Upwork yesterday which was listed as a top site for freelance, and also fiverr although I didn't look at it. My biggest issue is to put together a resume. I can easily list my skills, but unfortunately, I cleaned out my files from 10 years ago and there went my old resumes. I may...

    Ok Maki, that makes sense. Good info on the AARP job reference as well. I'm not a member but I'll take a look and see if I have to be. Thanks again :)

    I will call now and see if there is some way to apply locally, as we don't have a Workforce Center in this town, not that I've found. I called one day before yesterday, and they assured me they were emailing me info, etc. I didn't get anything so called them back yesterday and the guy...

    Feedback on "work from home" jobs..

    I've been reading a lot this a.m. and the thought had crossed my mind on how much education/experience, other than a basic knowledge of SQL, I would need to land a job. So I did a few searches and see jobs where I would need SQL knowledge, but also call for a lot more education/experience than...

    Feedback on "work from home" jobs..

    Not sure, but I think I explained that in the OP. But two main things are too low-income to do some things I want to, and boredom causing depression. I'm not creative with art, crafts, and I want to be outdoors so maybe get to better climates, buy a decent comfy RV so I can travel a little.

    Thanks much for all the info, after I look into all of these I will make a decision. I loved Math, wouldn't mind doing that one just for fun!!

    Feedback on "work from home" jobs..

    Ok, I think this one fits me because there are zero prerequisites, and I have had jobs where I used database programs. The last classes I took were in 2013 and I scored high on all my homework including Math up and into algebra. When it came to tests in Math though, I had some bad-ass anxiety...

    hey @Willow4303 I'll put the link I clicked below, when I got to the udemy site. Isn't there a test I can take to see if I'm smart enough to take this course, lol!!:unsure: :geek: It sounds like I need something for a beginner but don't see it on udemy...

    Wow, good for you Willow! I will take a look. If you've used it over and over again that says a lot for the site. There are so many to choose from I was gettin dizzy ;) Thanks much!! I really like the idea of taking a class "first" because if I can complete a course that will give me a heck...

    My site wouldn't come up on any of my 3 browsers for a time. I am back now as you can see. I filled out an application for a job way down into California so we'll see if anything comes of that. I did more of an introduction letter as they just wanted to be contacted if interested. Anyway, it...

    Feedback on "work from home" jobs..

    I'm still super interested in this eDJ, I'll check your link. I agree that 39 bucks would be nothing for me to afford, but I was wondering how many months of education I would need. The initial link said the one class was just 14 hours, how in-depth it goes, I don't know yet, didn't read that...

    I was going to try this but had some health issues that let me know I have to have some "comforts" at my age, comforts I can't afford in an RV. I used to be able to camp-out in something makeshift, or did a lot of tent-camping. Can't do it anymore :( You are staying close to where I was...

    I don't understand how it would help me to take the course without having some proof I completed it though @Morgana. Also, I still think I have to have a lot more education to actually use "SQL" as one of my skills. I googled "what jobs can I get with SQL skills", and they were all about...

    Ok, lets start over, I am open to part-time or temporary work first of all, just to see if I can actually do it again at 70 years old. I have nothing but a high-school diploma, and never worked anywhere for more than 3 years. I'm living on low-income in HUD housing, drive a 94 Mazda pickup...

    I want to know the good, bad and the ugly, thank you so much for sharing it. I'm really interested in learning anything I can do on a computer as I'm good at it. I don't know what possessed me not to take straight-up computer courses when I got to go back to school 10 or so years ago. I've...
