It seems like every work at home opportunity has a tag line about “Finally, you’ll be able to work in your pajamas.” I always assumed when I was a kid that I’d get dressed in cute suits everyday & wear pearls to the office. It wasn’t until I was older that I discovered that wearing high heels isn’t nearly as much fun as it looks.
I like working from home because:
1. I get to wear my pajamas to work if I want to.
2. My mind can take detours & spend time looking at random things like auto insurance in Texas when I need a break from my job.
Sometimes, I’m so comfortable that I forget that I’m supposed to be working, which may or may not be a bad thing. I know the proper wardrobe for the office, but I forget what is work appropriate for the home office. I know that if I’m dressed up a little bit I feel better. If I feel better I probably work quicker too. I just don’t feel like going through the hassle of putting on makeup if no one is going to see me. It’s one of those things that I need to start doing just for me.
