If you find sitting at home all day leaves you feeling distracted by the television, the sunny weather and the chores that need to be done around the house, chances are you are unable to get much work done. Some people need to be away from home in order to be productive and earn a living. If this sounds like you, you are part of the majority and have numerous opportunities available to you. As financially sound as it may be, some businesses do not provide a chance to work from home. It may be more convenient to have employees on-site, they may have old-fashioned leadership that does not believe in working from home or the work may not lend itself to anything but having employees on-site. An example of the latter would be CNA jobs. Nurses need to be where the sick people are, which means most caregiver jobs are located in hospitals, doctor's offices and nursing homes. You will find very few successful nurses working out of their homes without a position at an on-site location.

The medical field is not the only option for an out-of-the-house job. Many blue-collar positions like construction and factory work require you to show up at a building or site, perform your duties and leave when it is time to go home. Many people like this kind of work because they can leave it all behind at the end of the day. They find it is less stressful than work where your supervisor may contact you in the evening or on weekends. If something happens after you are gone, it is either dealt with the next day or a shift that works after yours handles the problem. There are often great overtime opportunities in work like this, something a person working from home rarely gets to enjoy.

Being out in the world and working with kid is another great way to work outside of the home. Teachers find themselves in a classroom all day and while the room may begin to feel like a home away from home, they are completely focused on teaching and helping the students. Teaching is a very rewarding career and it is great for those who get bored easily. Each year brings fresh faces and new challenges, something a person working from home would not get to experience.

If teaching is not for you but the idea of working with children or being around learning materials is appealing, consider working in a library. This gives you a chance to interact with eager learners and be surrounded by books and media, but you are not tied to a classroom or a curriculum. The library sciences are a very rewarding career and it is a great way to feel like you are part of your community.

A final option for a person who would like to work outside the home is government employment. The government employs more people than the private sector and there is work in just about every field. You can be a loner, a people person, a scientist, an artist or anything else you can dream of and be able to find government work, usually with great pay and benefits.
