KatieB Apr 2016 4:42pm, 15 Apr 2016 6,828 posts	0 KatieB We both work from home all the time. We share an office and a desk, although I do leave fetch alone when I go and treat my clients (in another room at home...would be awkward to treat them in the same room :-P). We used to work from the dining room table...it was a bit of a pain. Here's the office
OhMyFleecingGod Apr 2016 7:02pm, 15 Apr 2016 27,313 posts	0 OhMyFleecingGod I work (study) from home, though when I see participants I go to them Fetchies are my virtual office buddies Though I do occasionally go into uni to chat to people, or to go running. I cannot focus in my office at uni, plus my PC there is beyond shit. I did an undergrad degree in 3 years when my kids were tiny, I got very, very good at focusing in weird places with children screaming in the background (sometimes mine....) I actually get stacks of work done in the car waiting for my kids to do their after school stuff.

icemaiden Apr 2016 11:04pm, 15 Apr 2016 4,609 posts	0 icemaiden I am self employed and work at home. Been full time at it since last July. I am a book indexer and work on a variety of subjects. I can flex my hours and work when I want to meet the deadlines. Or go running, shopping or put the washing on when I want. There are meetings every few months with others and conferences to go to every year. We also have email support groups. So while I am on my own I am not alone.
Fragile Do Not Bend Apr 2016 11:30pm, 15 Apr 2016 748 posts	0 Fragile Do Not Bend I don't do a job I could do from home, but even if I did, I'm not focused enough to work from home. When I did my degree (as a mature student) I did as much studying as I could in the uni library as I got much more done there then I could at home.
