Juggling work and family can be hard and indeed it can take toll even to the strongest of the human race. Unfortunately, it is a situation which you don’t have much of a choice. For someone younger, let say 30-something adults, work means career while family would mean spouse and kids. However, for older adults it would mean work as a means of existence and family, being his or her parent plus partner.  If I were to choose, I would definitely go for the former as there will be enough room to somehow make it work while the latter would mean getting stuck to the situation whether you like it or not. Good news is, thankfully, the words “working” and “job” are now taking a whole new different meaning, something that is remotely possible 10 years back. Telecommuting is fast gaining popularity as business owners are starting to recognize its benefits for both parties. So does outsourcing. These two made it possible for people who are having a hard time keeping up with the ever demanding work time and family life. Here are some types of job you can do at home or away from the office, and it pays really well too!
•    Medical Transcription. If you already have a background in medical and you are pretty much familiar with medical terms used by doctors then you won’t have much of a problem getting medical transcription jobs. Medical transcriptionists are in demand nowadays since doctors and medical practitioners are required to keep written records of their patients. However, they don’t have much time for it. A medical transcription job pays well and it can be done at home.
•    Website design. Let your creative juices flow while getting paid for it. What’s even greater is that you’ll be able to view and visit your work every day! if you want to go a little further, attend computer programming classes and boost up your pay even more!
•    Legal assistance. Legal assistants or paralegals play as the lawyers secretary or, the lawyer’s secretary’s assistant. They do research, prepare documents, secure signatures and more. In other words, they do the legwork for the lawyer. Usually paralegals are not required to come to the office on a regular basis, they just report when needed.
•    Tutorials. A retired teacher perhaps? Then just go post an advertisement and let the word spread about your newfound career. You don’t have to go to their houses either, you can have them come to yours after designating a conducive spot in your house, for example a spare room.
