Re: The Workplace

My company is starting a work from home program sometime this summer, I'll be able to work at home 3-4 days a week. Needless to say...

I CAN'T F'ING WAIT

I sit around some hens that just cackle all day long, drives me insane. They sit about 10 feet apart but they're on the phone all day or at each other's desk.

I can definitely see this being the wave of the future for many jobs. I could easily do my job at my house, lower my stress levels and honestly, probably be more effecient. I don't think there is a person on the face of the Earth who wouldn't take advantage of that situation just a little bit, but (at least in IT) there are times where stuff is just "working" and I could possibly spend 6 hours of my 7 hour day doing nothing.

I don't work in the field unfortunately, it's all boring office work. Basically all you need for my job is a phone and a computer. So it makes total sense that they want to move everyone to a home office eventually.

at lunch, i put my food on my desk and just take nibbles for an hour as i read the warpath. i drink coffee in the morning so coffee gut keeps me from being hungry at lunch.

having your lunch on your desk is the general sign in our office that the person aint doing shit work related for the time being.

usually the boss man will come flying in your office asking you to do something, but with your lunch out, he automatically slows down and is like "so, yeah . .. . . . umm, when you get done lunch im gonna need you to go ahead and move your desk over there. yeah. umm okay. thaaaannnkkss,"

well lunch is over for me.
