"In the past five years, the gig economy has become a major trend impacting the global workforce, and has created a new kind of diversity, with full-time permanent employees working side-by-side with freelancers. A study exploring the gig economy found that 93% of companies already identify the blended workforce as they’re seeing freelance workers teaming up with employees to work on projects together. In addition, the top reason why outperforming employers are benefiting from the blended workforce is “more flexible teaming”. "

Quite a lot of posts on this topic. What I don't understand about age discrimination is what do people think is going to happen as they get older? Will they be eternally 28-35 years old? In essence, people are discriminating against themselves. These young "wippersnappers" will one day face the same issues touted in the many posts on this site. And by that time, it will be too late for them to see what they failed to see when they were 30. It's really sad to think we throw away a vibrant, intelligent, skilled, trustworthy set of our population because they are "old". Like old is a bad word. It's not. I'm proud of my accomplishments and the fact that I have passed my genes onto a second and third generation.
I am a freelance graphic designer. I work from home - anonymously unseen. And that's the way I like it. Not my preference, of course. But it's how I get around (some) of the ageism out there.

I'm a student traveling around Washington State. I haven't had a job before and I'm looking for one online as I continue to travel. I've spent about two months looking for one and still haven't found one that wasn't a scam. I know the basics of some coding languages and I do art commissions online. I'm fairly decent when it comes to communicating to other human beings, so if there's ANYTHING online I can work on please let me know. Finances are getting low and soon I won't be able to pay for car insurance or to eat. Thank you for your time. I wish you a good day.

After freelancing for 20 years, and not being a good salesman hard to find part time work.
I’ve seen a lot of posts in the community about finding a work-from-home job. That’s why I wanted to share a few tips on how to find one, so you can avoid running into any scams or dead-end job positions.
Use keywords like “remote” and “virtual”: If you’re performing a job search, avoid using “work from home” in your search. Instead, use words like “remote” and “virtual”. These are more common in legitimate job descriptions.
Check out company websites: A lot of companies are posting remote jobs right on their Career pages. For example, American Express has a lot of remote customer service work (https://jobs.americanexpress.com/virtual), and so does Apple (https://www.apple.com/jobs/us/aha.html).
Be cautious: A lot of scammers try to take advantage of the popularity of work-from-home jobs. If you’re asked for an interview via Google Hangouts and/or ask you for personal information (like your SSN or financial info), it’s likely a scam. Always report these to info@jobcase.com so we can help you determine if it’s a legitimate company.
Consider freelancing: I was a freelance copywriter for 8 years, and I loved it! If you’re a designer, writer, IT professional, website developer, etc., there’s a good chance you can work for yourself right out of your home. Try checking out sites like Guru.com and Upwork.com to see what’s out there.
Hope this helps - let me know if you guys have any questions!
