My best ideas? In the shower.
Number of businesses I've worked at where it was possible to take a shower during the day at the office to solve hard problems? Zero.
Working remotely with washable crayons on a shelf in my shower means I get about 3x the concept creation time. I figure a number of businesses I've worked at (in the office) have lost out on more than a million dollars of creative output due to not having a shower available.
- AaronBBrown 14y agoAnother downside is that I have completely lost perspective on how long it takes me to "get ready" to go outside the house if I have to be somewhere early in the morning. My routine is that I get up, feed the kids, eat breakfast, read the Interwebs, check up on the night's disasters at work, then move upstairs to my office. I often don't get myself groomed until lunchtime or so. To those that I work with...don't worry. I always wear pants. But don't expect me to want to video chat with you too early in the morning. :)
