Working from Home, the New Me
Here are my favorite things about working from home:
- It's home, so I don't have to go there and back.
- I picked the furniture and the pets.
- I can use politically non-correct terms.
- I can run at lunch.
- I can run before work.
- I can run after work.
- I can take a shower when I want, or skip one all together.
- It's OK if I sit on the boss's lap, we're married.
- I don't need gas, or even a car; it's a good thing I don't have a bar.
- I can sit around naked because we still use phones and not Skype.
- No one leaves donuts in the break room.
- I can listen to loud music or watch TV as I work.
- I can have lunch with my wife without a big plan.
- I don't have a firewall for my PC.
- I can sleep in.
- I avoid traffic jams and security cams.
- I can wear footie jams.
- When I need to work from somewhere else, I can take my office with me. (Think, under an umbrella at the beach with a cool iced tea.)
- I can take the trash out while I am "muted" on a conference call.
- I get hugs from my little one when she is home from school, not when she is immersed in homework after dinner.
The only draw back I guess, is that I am close to the refrigerator and I have to buy my own coffee.
Thanks for all your support, prayers, job recommendations, passing my resume around at work and sending me links to job sites these past 7 months, I really appreciated it!
