[Jobs] A note on work from home jobs.

[Terra Syslo]

Awesome! I know they require $25 I think it is for them to do a background
check, and you send in some paperwork, but once they receive it they get
back to you right away and tell you what all you need to do to start the
training process. The background check didn't bother me, because a lot of
the companies that contract with LiveOps you're dealing with personal
information like credit cards.

I am waiting to see if I get anything from live ops.  I just did their voice
audition and submitted my application so hopefully something will come up.
I've also got a little bit of scripting experience so if it's not too bad I
might be able to make jaws work with software.
Cheers
Jess
