1-800-flowers

For Barbara, another day at the "office" means a few hours in an upstairs bedroom at home. She's an employee of 1-800-Flowers, but never leaves home. She does it all online.

"It's perfect," she says. "You can stand here and iron as calls come in. You just turn around and get right back to the computer." And Barbara says her start-up costs were minimal. "You need the computer set-up and you either need two phone lines or one phone line and DSL."

The rest is whatever she makes it. "I play with scrapbook stuff and you name it. You can sit here and work on laundry--and get paid for it," she says laughing.

This sounds interesting. Source:
