if so can you name any good employers/companies that I can apply to?

I only wanna do like 25/30hrs p/w now I know im gonna have to take a pay cut to do this but I need time to study....im not about to let my studies fall behind

I was thinking on the lines of online gambling (working for them not betting!!)

any advice?

BP - been working from home for the last 12 months or so and I tell you I'm still on my full salary and at times doing less than ten hours a week. I think pounds per hours done I'm probably the highest paid bro in the UK.....but it's so boring I've handed in my notice...with so much time on your hands all you think about is pu$$y...and with people like facetygal running up their mouth this is no time for weakness and man there are some fit babymothers doing school runs round here I tell ya

Guess it all depends what job you can do. I went for an interview with these lot in Camden a couple of weeks ago http://www.pkr.com for an IT role...ironically after speaking about my work history, present and future their feedback was they think I'll get bored quite quickly of the role they are offering.

Looked a nice place to work though. You can try and see if they got any home work.

Also had an interview with betfair http://www.betfair.com in Hammersmith. They might have more in the way of home based options plus they also do this refer to earn scheme where you can earn money just by getting people to sign up.

Hey Black_Power,

I work from home but for myself. Is this something you would consider? I mean you're good with cars right? Can you use your knowledge and skill to start anything up with that? If you can put a good value on your existing skills and pitch your services to the right people, you may not have to take a pay cut. In fact you may even be able to earn more!!

I saw an Ebay ad recently and thought of you. They are looking for ad writers, not sure how much they were offering or whether it was working from home but the hours weren't f/t you may be able to do something as you're familiar with it.

Just some thoughts for now. If I think of any others I'll add of course


“If people around you aren't going anywhere, if their dreams are no bigger than hanging out on the corner, or if they're dragging you down, get rid of them. Negative people can sap your energy so fast, and they can take your dreams from you, too.”

@Judge J: My business is in personal and professional development.

@Melissa: The ad was a leaflet in my local library. Hopefully I'll see it again before the deadline. I'm surprised that it's not on their siteconfused3

@BP: So how's the search going then?

@Melissa: The people advertising the vacancy seem to be an intermediary. The ad on the link doesn't mention that the salary is hourly up to £17,000plus performance based incentive it seems.

http://www.auctioning4u.co.uk/Vacancies/Specialists/eBay_Lister(Part_Time__Full_Time__Weekends)/

Email your CV and cover letter to jobs@auctioning4u.co.uk

@Black_Power: Not sure how you would get to North Acton from where you are if you were interested lol.
