Hey, don’t judge me I’m getting things done. Right now, I’m wearing shorts while writing this article and I’ve got the Netflix documentary about ZZ Top playing after I put a load of dirty clothes in each of the washer and dryer. I’m not going to lie: it’s so nice to be able to work from home since you’re able to be productive in your personal life as well as your professional life (if you do it right we’ll talk about that later). Just like how we’re told to do things that we should be doing anyway - like wash our hands - some are starting to question why aren’t we working from home in the first place? With this recent Coronavirus craziness that’s going on, people are being told to stay home and practice “social distancing” which also may affect our office culture moving forward. While the idea of working from home is not new in the United States, there’s definitely the assumption that people who are “working from home” aren’t actually “working”. My job description involves handling technology, phones, this website, and sometimes random projects, so my physical presence is not usually required in the office for 80% of the stuff that I have to do day-in and day-out. You see, I’m the guy here at the Culbertson Agency who doesn’t service or sell insurance. I actually don’t work from home all that often: maybe once or twice a month. My first thought was, “ Is he on to me?” and my second thought was, “ Is he asking me to divulge all of my trade secrets so that he can interpret my work facade?”įor an employee to be asked to write on this subject, it feels like a trap. So, full disclosure: my boss asked me to write about “How to Make it Look Like You’re Working from Home When You’re Not”.
