Working From Home Today!

I guess its safe to say that working from home has its benefits. My son wasn’t feeling well and I decided to not send him to school and just work from home so I could be home with him while he rest up. I had a relaxing Monday working from my couch with my furry lap dog beside me to keep me company and the day seemed to go by faster. It was nice to be able to catch up on emails and overdue contracts from the comfort of my home. I was able to get a lot done and surprise my twin daughters by picking them up afterschool. Overall it was a good Monday.

I have my own business. It's like a work from home in itself. But if I had a job, I would love work from home.Work from has its own benefits. You have your time and have your loved ones with you

@Shivram59 I kind of did the opposite, I went from running a tow truck company for about 6 years on my own and switched to a corporate 7:00-AM to 4:00 PM job.
I'm happier with my salary based, bonus and commission pay than running a business and dealing with 15 headaches a day lol

@BACONSTRIPSXXX A couple of years back I had a job in a company, but I wanted to have a business of my own. After three years I resigned from my job and now I work for myself.Now I earn much more than the salary I recieved every month as a job holder.

I do peiecework for a living and I found that I love it. I used to think working from home, my pention to put things off would slow me down, but I'm more productive. I am glad that you feel the same way and have that as an option.

@BACONSTRIPSXXX It's that way for a lot of people. I mean if you have to go into work, fine. But there's something about being in a space where you're comfortable and more in control of the distractions.

You could have titled this discussion with "Cuddling with my puppy today". 
I hope your son is feeling much better today.

Lol right?! He made it hard to get off the couch, he would just wiggle his way closer and closer until he would end up on my lap
