#1 comment when people find out your working from home:
"OOOO your working from home! You are SOOOOO lucky".
I want to look them in the eye and say...why because I can work in my moo-moo until 10a? Doesn't matter that the reason I'm not dressed is because the phone hasn't stop ringing long enough for me to finish peeing.
It must be nice to sit and watch TV then occasionally answer a phone, type a letter? OO let me add eating bon-bons like the housewives of Orange County.
Oh, yeah I do all that...every single day, jackass!
Unfortunately, I was one of those people that would say that very same thing. NOW I know why those people wanted to rip off my head and sh1t down my neck. Some of them even had children at home!! WHAT WAS I THINKING!!!! SHUT-UP Stupid.
Do I sound bitchy? You bet! I'm tired cranky and whiny. I haven't settled into a "routine" whatever the hell that is. I've asked people that work at home HOW!? What do I need to do or not do?
Basically what I get is "Oh, for the first few weeks your crazy THEN you settle into a "routine". I think they are getting even with me for the day I said "OOO you get to work at home". There really isn't a routine. Its some cruel joke set up by
work at homers to get even with the googly-eyed you-get-to-work-at-homers.
Well, I'm done with the jokes....WHAT IS THE ROUTINE,PLEASE?
Is it you do both house and job then fall into bed at 10p? Worrying about what you might have missed even though you have checked everything a bazillion times?
What do you worry about and don't worry about? Do you just say "F&^% it! and do your best?
In my mind the job is priority, then when things are quiet and I've completed most of my work I take little breaks and straighten house, make coffee for morning, throw in a load of laundry, etc. Is THAT the "routine"?
I know several out there work from home and I need to find a balance. REALLY! I'm too anal to just let stuff go around the house.
Husband says there is no difference "You are at work, do your work, then when you "come home" do what you think you need or don't do it. Nothings changed just the location of the office".
Is that true?

What?? No bon bons?? No tv watching??
Your job sucks! LOL :P
OH LORD when did this happen?
Ok seeing as how we think so very similar at times...but I have never worked from home...I have an idea as to how I would TRY to do this. I would make my routine like a work routine (no I'm not trying to be a smart ass) I would take the best hours of business and make them "office hours" and then do exactly that for that amount of time.(Be it 9-5.....8-4 or whatever) If you don't seperate the two somehow....work WILL go on ALL DAY LONG. And you need to let people know what time the office closes and be very firm about it, unless there is an emergency. I wouldn't even try to do housework or anything during office hours. And if you have an appointment or something..."leave early" like you would another job. I know if I tried to mix everything and do it all....all day long... I would be insane in a week!!!!!
I couldnt work from home, i need a place to go.....
Could you throw in that comforter i brought over since your tossing your laundry in. I'd really like to have it back.
