When people discuss working from home one of the first things people want to know is “what do you wear”? There are assumptions that everyone must lounge around in their PJ’s all day but that is not true for everyone.

Personally, unless I have to meet with someone face to face, which is rare, I wear what is comfortable to me.

Most often that means shorts or sweats and I don’t see a problem with it nor do I feel that it decreases my productivity.

However one day I did get a little too comfortable when I had to make a quick trip to the store in the middle of the day. As I was walking around I was wondering why I was getting stares, and why every single man in the store asked if he could help me with something.

It wasn’t until I walked past the meat section and a cold breeze went up my butt that I realized that my shorts were a little on the short side. I’m talking Nair who wears short shorts. Never again will I rush out of the house without doing a butt check.

Besides, it doesn’t matter what you wear as long as you get the job done. But if you really want to wear something to make a statement then be sure to drop by Work At Home Wear.

What do you wear when you work from home?

I hate cooking, and as indicated by my chili fiasco , I’m not too great at it.

However I have improved in the past year and I think I owe it all to my mother for buying me a slow cooker.

There are so many wonderful things I can make and they aren’t plain and boring like veggie stew or other things that come to mind when you hear “crock pot”.

My current favorites are chicken parmesan and enchiladas.

The best part is that I whip everything together in the morning before I start working, or in the afternoon when I take a break so that my work flow doesn’t get interrupted just because I get a call that says “I’m on my way home.”

I’m still no Rachael Ray but my slow cooker sure does make my life easier.

I feel compelled to write this because I keep getting emails from people wanting to know “the secret”.

I guess I should blame that overpriced Secret movie.

What’s the secret, what’s the key?

You want to know the secret to working at home? You want to know the key to quitting your day job?

1) Either get a job where someone will pay you to work at home.

2) Start a business selling useful products or services.

There you have it.

I hate to be so terse, but sometimes it really is that simple.

But I do aim to be helpful so I’ve started a new section on All Diva Media where I’ll feature (what seem to be) legit work at home jobs. I only have time for twice a month so hopefully that will help someone.

As for the business part, I’ve always believed that if you need to ask someone what kind of business you should start, you really don’t need to be in business.

But here’s a clue; What do you know how to do best? How can you make that profitable?

Think about it and there’s your key.

I wish you the best!
