But of course one has to know all the ins and outs. Personally I dont know if I would want to work from home well not especially in my job unless I took up a consultant type of job.
I guess there are advantages and disadvantages to both.
mmm lets think possibility of wife nagging all day or my boss?
I wonder if they can claim a PJ allowance or write off using their kitchen as a business expense when preparing meals.

Sounds ideal.

You just need to get rid of the dogs.

I'm able to work from home but the office is a 10 minute stroll and if I don't turn up and mock the cradles once or twice a day morale in the office sinks.

A happy ship is an efficient ship and an efficient ship is a happy ship and all that.

I've not had a sick day for 7 or 8 yrs

To the untrained eye, it might appear you had everything done by 10:28 this morning

That was 9.28 here... Im still just easing my way into the day

I havent even started yet oh wait Im a shift worker so that explains it

I work from home increasingly often these days. After all I have a fast internet connection there so who's to know? (Or care?).

I'm posting from the village of Whaplode in Lincolnshire today and as you can see my nose is firmly to the grindstone, as ever.

I solve the work/home balance problem by just living in a portacabin next to my work.

Not so much working from home, as homing from work.

Unless you're in a client facing, manual labour job, or live outside of civilization, there's really no excuse for being unable to work from home (full time or once in a while) these days.

Unfortunately today the Siberian fires are ruining my view of the mountains since they're now completely covered. Add to this a ripped neck and back muscle, my work this morning will be mainly done through closed eyelids

Some of us actually like working together as a team to make things, actual physical products that we sell at a profit, rather than pushing data around. It old fashioned I know, but it would be a little inconvenient to have to move all the production machinery from one persons house to another depending on whose day it is to work at home

Team? Screw that - other people are almost always some combination of incompetent, slow and annoying. I work alone.

Note the bit in bold

Team = someone to blame when it goes wrong

I have no sympathy. You get to sit about in country pubs all day when you're not at work.

I dont do manual labour, and Im not that far from civilisation, whats your point?
