What would you do with an extra four hours a week?

We're about to find out my answer to that question. As of today, I'm working from home Tuesdays and Fridays. *bounce

Working from home two days a week gives you four extra hours? Jesus.

Yup. Hour commute each way. Also going to save a heckuva lot of gas and wear and tear. Particularly on my brakes.

Suburban sprawl. Gotta love it. (Not.)

I can imagine a lot of things. I can't imagine that. I think I would throw myself off the nearest bridge.

Woo! Congrats on the working at home thing!

They can still pounce on me, just by phone or email. That's the way they normally do it anyway. (I understand calling, say, BossLady's extension to ask her a question, because she's on the other side of the building and likely to be on a long phone call. But I'll never get people who do it for, like, two offices down.)

The collectors are actually a little afraid of asking me for things, which amuses me to no end.

That is AWESOME.

It is also awesome that you are disciplined enough to do this. I work from home, it's flighty city. ;)

Well, it doesn't hurt that the bosses can look at my computer in my office any time and see what I'm doing, because it's a remote terminal setup. ;-)

And this part was total coincidence of how we set things up when we moved in, but my desk in in a dormer, so it's easy to think of it as isolated from the rest of the house and "work space."

brainiacfive mostly works on the couch in the living room since we got the wireless set up. That, I'm not sure I could do.

Hey, awesome!
