1. Poop any time you want
2. Take a nap vs. pretending to work
3. Less stress - no dealing with assholes in person, now you can simply click away.
4. Spend time with kids
5. No driving needed, avoid polluted highways, more sleep, less stress, less frustration.
6. Eat healthy home made. No need to ingest preservatives every day.
7. Keep sanity by working only when you are most productive vs. pretending to work when you can't get anything done.
8. Less stress from seeing asshole "managers"
- kuriho 8y agoWorking at home offers very little protection from the pains of working for the wrong company.
- Clubber 8y agoYes, but it makes it more tolerable.
- woogiewonka 8y agoI am most productive in early mornings and late evenings. Should I go ahead and tell my boss that I won't be doing anything mid-day and they should be cool with that? Name one place where people will okay this. I can already hear the argument - "but, working at home doesn't mean you can take the afternoon off!!!" I'm sorry to say this, but anyone who thinks they are 100% productive all throughout the day has not had to try hourly work where you get paid by the hours you work and not by the full day. Hourly freelancers know what I am talking about. I will go on record to say that most if not all people can NEVER function at 100% capacity. To believe that looking busy all day long = working is just wishful thinking, ignorance or foolishness, take your pick.
- kuriho 8y agoSo your fictional boss trusts you enough to allow work from home but somehow does not trust you when you propose to work early mornings and late evenings? I can not comment on the hourly freelancer part, but as I understand the US law that keeps getting cited in this thread: "it's illegal to require an independent contractor to be on site or to even set hours".
