I've been looking for work-at-home jobs for a 2nd income. Seems like 99% of them are scams that want your money, but there's a couple that sound legit. Both provide call center support, but instead of having all the operators in a single room, the calls can be routed to you at home. Anybody ever hear of West At Home or Alpine Access? Know of any companies that actually use either one of these for their support? Know someone who actually does this?

This month marks 3 years of working at home for me. I do work for Staples (as most of you know), but at home.

Of the 2 dozen of us in our department working at home, I don't think any of us could handle going back to the call centre.

Dropped in on gamefaqs to look up some hints for Zelda Ocarina of Time (stuck in the forest temple) and they're running one of their Best Game Ever polls.

Todays features are: Mario 64, Castlevania:SotN, Chrono Trigger, and SMW2: Yoshi's Island.

All good games but I'm torn between Castlevania and Chrono Trigger for my vote.

Thoughts, ideas, arguments?

EDIT: short update, Forest temple is no longer an issue, Fire Temple is a frickin labyrinth.

Evening all.

It's half five in the morning. And I can't sleep.

And when I do sleep, I wake up about four hours later.

So yeah, my sleeping problems are getting worse.

Howdy DS,

do you know what the cause might be ?

Food ? http://www.mayoclinic.com/print/food...2/METHOD=print

Comfort ? Sometimes something like a body pillow (might be called something else in the Olde Dart) can assist.

Sleep Apnoea ? This one can be nasty

I must say that I do everything it says not do do on there, and I generally sleep quite well.

I eat a lot. Drink too much. And sleep like a dead man.

However I used to have trouble sleeping for a year or two. I didn't get anything done about it as I thought it was mostly stress related. It did pass soon after I started uni.

I know it can be really exhausting, DS. Hope it gets better for you.
