I just started a new remote job and have rented an office 45m from my house. The need to do this is related to school drop-off and pickup, but the benefits include:
- no part of our house needs to be dedicated to work
- work starts and stops at regular times
- I have at least 30m of language study time in the car (accounting for conversations with my daughter which will be a priority)
- my office is 5 min from trails I can run at lunch
Working from home, as in the spare bedroom, is a challenge and a buzzkill.
- stevesimmons 6y agoHaving a nearby office is brilliant, if you can afford it. For the last three months, my partner and I have rented an office 3 minutes from home. The office is huge (88m2 / 950 sq ft), has a kitchen and toilet and separate telephone room, plus has a beautiful outlook on the Amsterdam canals. No way can I go back to squeezing into the London tube to commute to Oxford Circus or Canary Wharf.
