I really don't see the benefit of having a distinct office. I do my programming job from:
1. Anywhere in my house, depending on which
location feels right at any given time.
2. Restaurants, coffee shops
3. Hotels
4. From moving cars (while not driving, obviously)
5. From tractors way out in the middle of a field
6. In friend's living/dining rooms
7. Decks, porches, patios, picknick tables
8. You name it, I have probably tried it
As I mentioned in my other post, working at the times you are mentally fit for the job is far more important than any other factor. The only thing that leads me to distraction is burnout. I find that if I work when I am fresh, there is no temptation to do anything else.
- MarlonPro 15y agoI think there are 3 distinctions that we need to identify here: 1. employee that works in the traditional office 2. employee/freelancer that works in the home-office 3. employee/freelancer that works in the cloud. These are the distinctions that define the modern workforce. Whichever category you fall into, I believe that you still have to have a home-office of some sort - may that be a dedicated room, a corner, or just a desk in the living room.
