My job allows me to work at home 2 to 3 times a week. Although this is great, I do get a bit of cabin fever. Anyone else find themselves in this situation? |

Jim, you're slipping, you forgot slippers gently warmed and dinner on the table for when he gets in. |

I can guess at being stuck indoors on your own ? |

I worked from home a few times a week for a couple of years when I was self employed. The flexibility was great in that you choose what time you start & finish, but when I was very busy, Mrs SOT couldn't understand why I couldn't run the hoover around (yes Jim I know, what a stupid question!!), do the washing up, unload or load the washing machine, buy some toilet rolls or collect the dry cleaning etc etc. She also got the hump when I worked well past normal office hours - once until 3am - to meet deadlines. Add to that the cabin fever effect of working in a 6ft x 6ft office (box room), I understand exactly the negative side that working from home can create. I found myself working in my dressing gown at 11.30 one morning and was becoming completely disorganised. Now I work in a huge office, travel to c London daily and am just a pay number. Bizarrely, I sort of prefer it and wouldn't go back to home/lone working again out of choice |
