Solid commute to the office this morning, except for the overturned dog on Hallway Avenue. #ShouldHaveTakenTheLoop

Who else is enjoying this brave, new world this morning? (he says as he leisurely begins his 2nd cup of coffee)

Been working from home mostly for awhile, it’s the rest of my new coworkers that are using the office now that are making things difficult!

Since ~2005 or so.

Only difference now is that clients are not at work so I've nothing to do.

Kind of like the day after Thanksgiving...

If I had a decent scanner/printer at home, a good supply of letterhead/envelopes, and a way to meter mail, I’d be set. A trip to the office is in my immediate future.

Day 2 of working remotely. Can say that I'm not particularly a fan of it either.

If I did this full time, I'd have to setup a he shed in my back yard with a window unit.

welcome to the life bois


Little one is running around the back yard, chasing the dogs, doing drive-by snacks. I got mosquito repellant & a citronella candle going.

I'd prefer to be in my home office but I have to improvise to keep the little one busy and happy while I work

Sitting in the breakfast nook, windows open, listening to birds chirping, enjoying a cup of coffee, and not really getting much work done. But I'm logged in and ready.

Been doing it since April 1, 2019. Best thing ever. I'm also way busier than my former job, which I like as well.

Our office set up a Slack chat. My wife made brownies so I took a picture and posted that they were at my desk. When someone responded that they wanted some I told them to look in their "cookies". bwaahaahaahaa!!! #ITHelpdeskHumor

We're swapping days at my office so I'll be the one in the office tomorrow then working from home again on Friday.

We've used Slack for office chat for a while but we're expanding usage, obviously, when nobody's in the office.

Nope, just outside the city limits of that iconic center of art, literature and philosophy known as Baton Rouge. We also have an amazing traffic loop.

I've been working from home since 2005, no way I could go back to the BS of an outside office but it's not for everyone.
