Although I sincerely worked for 8 hours, I happened to discover a few advantages I can derive by occasionally working from home:
- Avoid the traffic chaos (this obviously is the major one...)
- Avoid going through that pathetic Nagar Road and the depressing Kharadi- Mundhwa bypass (yuck...that area sucks. :(... )
- I can be at ease, wearing my bermuda shorts at work
- Spend more time playing with my baby niece
- Have a complete meal at lunch (which only happens n weekends...)
- Ocassionally watch television, work with music turned on and loud
- Chat on Gtalk, without worrying if my manager watches out..
- Spend more "official" time on Facebook
- Maybe even have a short nap after lunch (although I've not tried yet, but seems a good option :)..)
- Speak on my phone without rushing to search an empty meeting room
- Be flexible with my time and actions, as no one is watching :)
This list can keep on updating, maybe my readers suggest a few more which I can implement next time I work from home. I only pray my manager doesn't read this post, I may have a tough time convincing him next time. :)
At least that you'll agree is the advantage of having palkhis in Pune.
ReplyDeleteOhh and updating your blog is another advantage of working from home! ;)
ReplyDeleteI seriously grudge you the option,buddy!!!
ReplyDeleteIn my case, there's no chance of working from home.
Shucks :(
Hi K,
ReplyDeleteIf I get a chnace to WFH which is not possible in cybage ( reasons you know), a chilled beer before the lunch would be my dream come true
Chilled beer before lunch..you sure you "working" from home????? :) That won't be an option for me though- beer during work, and more importantly- beer at home :)))
ReplyDeleteThe other day I recieved an SMS defining HOME as "A place where you can scratch exactly where it itches" .... not related to this blog directly ... but really working from home for me, the one who stays in Bengaluru, once known as Garden city and now renowned as Burden (traffic) city means saving 2 hours of travel time, not inhaling those pollutants and resting those ears from hearing the unnecessary honks....its all peace, serene and homely :-).
ReplyDelete- Ability to wear your comfy shorts/track pants rather than the inflexible formal attire
ReplyDelete- Stretch at leisure and possibly do ur work in a more comfortable posture :D :D :D
Cool Man.. its JD.. enjoy..
