This is the fourth week for the Work Bank. I'm trying to find the right day for people to see it. The targets are both people in need of work and people who need work done.
There is also a new group, Daily Kos Work Bank. Everybody is welcome join, those with work, and those looking for work. And now, on with the show. For my part, this is a repeat of the last two. The real key is the comments, where people who need work done can get together with people who need work.
What is the difference between work and a job? A job is regular. A job has a paycheck, benefits, a place you go every day, perhaps even people you like and a career you love.

I've just got this one little thing I need done - I can't hire you full time.
Seriously. I do. And I bet a lot of other people here do, too. People with websites that need redesign or debugging, people with brick-and-mortar or on-line stores and not enough customers, writers in need of editors, and more, are all people who need people, even if just for a little while.
I propose a Daily Kos Work Bank. I'd truly love to see a Daily Kos Job Bank, but that's harder. Jobs require interviews, resumes, references. Work just requires qualifications and a willingness to get the task done.
