Hi guys. What do you think about working flexible hours and do the most of work from home?
Personally, I am working from home for more then 8 years now. My home job was combined with office job for some periods of my life, but they never worked for me as good as home job. And here are two cases for me. The first case is working for somebody else, and the second case is working for myself (either own company or being a self-employed).
Lets start from working for somebody else. I spend more time working. I care more. I keep an eye. This normally doesn't happen to me when I am working from office. I've got fixed hours of work, after that I am completely "disconnected" and there is no way somebody can make me think about the work. Why should I? However, from the other side, I (may) have problems concentrating working from home. It depends on the way how you manage your time, but it could be an issue.
Well, the situation when you are working for yourself is different. I don't have such big difference between an office and home, except feeling myself much more comfortable by laying down on the bed with laptop, instead of doing the same in the office, when some (hired) people can't do this or don't feel comfortable with laying on the bed in the office. :)
So in total I feel myself very comfortable working from home, however, nice office is a good thing to have (to make a business meetings or have company parties :).
