PCs & PJs - Work From Home Opportunities

I'm sorry this is so late today but I had an appointment at the VA today and well, it took a little bit longer than I thought.  But that's a story for another day.  Today I would like to share with you some viable work at home and entrepreneur opportunities for veterans and their spouses.  The list below is from militarybenefits.com.

I did check Xerox and Uhaul and they both have remote positions open.  Other companies include Dell Amazon, Discover Bank, Aetna and Humana.  Also take a look at "The Military Spouse Employment Partnership (MSEP) and Work from Home Jobs – Over 200 companies have pledged to expand employment opportunities for military spouses through the MSEP."

Today I received an email from AT&T and they have a new program where they have pledged to hire 20,000 veterans by 2020.  You can watch the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZOwGdWbaYs&sns=em.

I hope that this information has been helpful.

As always, thank you for your support.

TTYL - Be blessed!!

Work for a Major Corporation – Companies like Xerox offer work from home opportunities including customer care, administrative support, data entry, software programming and much.  The even have a program called Heroes@Home that seeks qualified veterans and military spouses.  Uhaul and many other corporations have opportunities as well.

Prepared Meals/Dinners – Cook meals for neighborhood families and optionally deliver for families that don’t have time to cook on their own every night. The best part is that you can set the frequency such as daily, every Thursday night or several times a week. The profits can add up quickly, for instance if you have 15 families/orders at $30 a meal that’s $450 less your food cost. Plus, your families dinner is cooked and ready as well. Take it to another level with parent and kids meals, healthy, organic and/or gluten free.  For more information read “How to Start a Meals to Go Business“.
