Mostly my wife expecting me to take an active roll in taking care of the kids during my scheduled work hours. She does a good job of keeping the kids occupied much of the day, but there seems to be a lot more little emergencies that she needs input on than when I worked in an office.
I'm not sure what the solution is, and I'm not convinced it's really a problem since I still get more done than when I was in the office (shorter distractions compared to coworkers always asking easily answered questions). It's definitely something interesting difference though.
- sethammons 7y agoMy wife, kids, and I discussed it. If I am working from home, I'm not home. It was a work in progress for a while, where I nicely said I'm not home right now. Esp. hard when my "office" was in the living room. We all got it to work and later, we got a bigger home and a dedicated office space. That helps.
