Cool

This is mental! Today I had to 'unofficially' work from home as I was waiting for something to be delivered. Despite the likely distractions (tv, scoobynet, kitchen) I've managed to get a silly amount done compared to what I'd achieve in the office!! I've even had time to nip on scoobynet this afternoon from time to time yet I've still got far more reports written than I usually would.

I guess my workmates, coffee's, the phone and trips to the bog must distract me more in the office than I realised I'm seriously considering going 'on site' (i.e home) for half a day each week so I can actually get some reports written

Anyone else find this?

I work from home full time. I get so much more work done here. So much so that I can read and post of SNet in the afternoons

Cheers

Ian

Good plan brun - the only problem is I work for the Council so effectively you (i.e. the taxpayer) are my boss I need to be around a lot so the good public can phone me or come and and give me abuse

Tried it once, but just couldn't discipline myself to get stuck into work.

Anyways...job has slightly changed now, so need to be onsite.
So thats that out the window !

Or perhaps it just highlights how little work you actually did in the first place
