"People who list complaints about working from home don't know how good they have it"
I work from home, but I put in my years in soulless cube farms - as did everyone I know (besides farmers) that work from home now and I know how nice it can be by comparison. That said, working from home is not a holy grail. It has it's downsides - like everything else. It's unfair to say that those of us who work from home somehow don't have valid complaints about it.
- wallflower 18y agoFair enough. Sometimes it's hard to see the forest for the trees. Did you buy a nice (Polycom) speaker phone or headset for call-in meetings?
- BigZaphod 18y agoNot yet - but I'm thinking about it. :) We don't do many voice calls, though, so I haven't felt a strong enough need. Mostly we use IM/Email since that is less disruptive while working and more conducive to our mobile lifestyles. (Not all of us work from home, there's a small core group of friends who started the company that work together in an office in person, but they do so by choice and it sounds pretty fun. Sorta wish I could drop in now and then without having to board a plane to do it.)
