Desk Work
how can i make my desk at work ergonomically correct?
what are some tips on how i can have my desk set up at work so that i'm not reaching all over the place for my mouse, phone, keyboard, etc. My desk is rather small and space is limited but I end up with aches and pains at the end of the day that I think can be avoided if I was sitting and set up properly.
if you're right hand dominant, put the phone in easy reach of your right hand (right side then probably). Your keyboard and mouse should be at or slightly below the level of :
1. Sit down
2. Hang arms at side.
3. Bend forearms perpindicular to your body at the elbow.
This is the level your keyboard and mouse should be at for maximum comfort. Also, try and get your chair armrests to be at this level for a lil extra support as well. Paper files? left side of desk, swivel chair to look at them.
Good Day Fellow Freelancer,
You will find 100's of work at home opportunities but along the road of freelance you will find plenty of scams along the way. The best way to avoid scams be sure to look for all the signs of a scam like:
If the freelance opportunity passes the 5 scam signs I would highly recommend that you investigate any company you plan to work for as a freelancer by checking with the Better Business Bureau www.bbb.org and doing a Google search to view any issues out on the net. Search company name, company address, company telephone and even company email address! And last but not least ask for references!
Never and I mean never pay anything before you get your freelance job and most importantly "If It's Too Good To Be True! It Is!".
If you are still in doubt do not do it!
You will find many work at home companies offering real freelance jobs like:
You can view more information about the above companies or others at www.extramoneysolutions.com.
You should have some experience before applying with any of the above companies! You should have a great phone personality! You should have a resume! You should have a quiet and private home office! Be self disciplined and organized! You will need to have some equipment before you apply for such positions like a computer, internet connection, telephone with head set, ability to fax, email address and even a small web site will help. You will have a lot of competition and you will need to set yourself aside from the completion and a resume type web site will do this for you along with a photo of your office.
To your success, Ozark Mike
