Work from home jobs??

My close cousin (practically my sister) is looking for a solid wfh job so she can be there for her autistic son more often. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

I hit transcription but I meant to press wish I knew. You’d have better luck with something in customer service phone call jobs I think. Or starting your own business.
I think transcription is a packed industry. You have to work for a company and pay them a percentage usually and then take whatever jobs are available. If you’re new they’ll be cheaper jobs because you have less experience. I’m sure there’s money it at some point but do you have the time to get there?

@Kat that's what I was worried about too. She worked in an optometrist office for years and has a great deal of experience there with terminology, so I told her maybe she can try looking into that, but I think medical transcription is broader than just optometry/one field of medicine and usually they want at least 3 years experience for med transcription

Ahh she may have better luck with more specialized stuff. I’d still apply if I were her. My sister’s been working remote since 2016. She keeps getting fired because of kids in the background but somehow she just finds another remote job.
🤷‍♀️
They’re all in customer service though. It’s hard to be a mom these days, working or SAHM. The system is not designed for us.

I work from home, I work for the Council.

What is she good at or have experience in? Does she not care and only want remote? Does pay range or company mission matter?

I work from home
One of my children is in school until 3 and the other is home with me all day
And I juggle between two jobs… and starting a new business
One of my roles is development and I do a lot of prospecting (which is really just a lot of researching and data entry) and the other one is community organizing where I do have to be in meetings but they enjoy my daughter being on the calls with them

How old is her son? As a wfh mom with a kid on the spectrum as well, she’d have to find an extremely flexible job. My son is in school part of the day and home with me the rest but my job doesn’t require me to be on the phone much.

There’s a lot of “hybrid” jobs in social services. Some positions offer 2 or three days from home while the other require you to be in the office or completing field work. While it’s not entirely remote it’s a suggestion

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣
