Staffcentrix Co-Founders Launch a 'Rat Race Rebellion' with New Online Community

The new site, hosted by Staffcentrix founders Christine Durst and Michael Haaren, includes screened home-based jobs, over 100 experts in home-based careers, and extensive resources to strengthen family bonds, reduce debt, and promote "greener" lifestyles. Comprehensive message boards help actual and aspiring "Rebels" continue or begin their "Rebellion."

Woodstock, CT (PRWeb) February 22, 2007 -- Staffcentrix announced the beta launch of its new online community, Rat Race Rebellion (http://www.ratracerebellion.com), devoted to helping people find solutions to high-stress, Rat Race living. The evolutionary site weaves together the related themes of home-based work, family cohesion, debt-reduced spending habits, and the "green" benefits of a more balanced lifestyle.

Staffcentrix co-founders Christine Durst and Michael Haaren are extensively involved in the community, and screen the many home-based job leads they post to the site. Home-based careers are also covered in exceptional depth: at build-out, the site will feature over 100 authors, consultants and other independent experts offering practical guidance on over 130 "virtual careers."

"The Rat Race has become a meat grinder for families and individuals as well," says Christine Durst, Staffcentrix CEO. "It's affecting our marriages and relationships, our families, our health, and our environment. We wanted to help people see how it all fits together, so they could start moving toward the solutions that work best for themselves, and those they love."

"Home-based careers are only part of the puzzle, though they are a big part," says Staffcentrix President Michael Haaren. "The telework and homesourcing movements are growing as the Internet develops, and new niches are continually emerging. A few years ago, paid blogging didn't exist, and now sites like Second Life are hiring home-based 'liaisons' and creating home-based 'virtual businesses' as well."

The site also includes Staffcentrix' new Home-Based Job PowerSearch Toolkit™, with over 700 screened links to companies and organizations that hire home-based workers, and 55 self-executing Google search terms. Developed and used daily by Staffcentrix' research team, the search terms help users avoid scams and find legitimate work-at-home leads.
