Went very well. 0 distractions. Will be doing this 100% come March/2014. I thought I would get bored too easy, but this went quite well.

Anyone else doing this at the moment? Any tips? Thanks.

Watching a shitload of movies as well.

Star Trek just started. Kirk's dad is about to go kamikaze on the Romulans.

I was able to get about five hours of work done. Not bad.

I got some work done from 7-12, then I started cooking, then I started drinking. Then I was in weekend mode.

Tomorrow will be even worse.

The only way I can work from home is if I am completely alone, wife, kids, housekeeper, they all get in the way.

I work 100% from home. Been doing it for 4.5 years now.

I like it because I hate going to an office. I still communicate with my teammates all day long via Lync.

I never really spend money on fast food. No traffic. Very little gas money.

Wife and kids don't distract me anymore. They used to think because I was home, they could bother me whenever. That shite stopped real quick.

Enjoy man. More and more people will be working from home in the coming years.

Its easy for a day, or even a couple of weeks, but you won't be even close to as productive as you would be at an office long term.

It takes a special person. I did it for 3 years before I hired employees. I focus better in an office.

Today wasn't bad though. My employees were productive and we made some good money from home. Can't complain. Looks like we'll do it tomorrow.

One cool thing that made it better was our new phone system, a cloud based VoIP. We brought our phones home and it was just like we were at the office.

I tried it for a couple weeks bc my office was 80 miles away. I couldn't take it. I'd rather drive the 1.15 hr. Plus it gives me a reason to get out the house early and arrive back whenever I want. There's nothing like being your own boss.

I'd be much better at it if I had an office.

Truth. I could "save" a couple grand a month by not having an office but if I worked from home I would work less and it would end up costing me money so I drag my arse to the office M-F.
