"Lack of employee banter" you compensate for in mp game chats with other work-at-homers.
You mow the lawn post lunch time middle of the week and say hi to the cute moms walking their kids & dogs.
the freelance work i do do is always taken up a notch when my wife decides to go out for the night, the client decides they want to skype, and my son decides that i'm not allowed to skype while mommy is out.
yeah, that's always awesome
One of my coworkers worked from home. Occasionally he would say "oh man its storming really bad here, I think I'm going to lose power" and then immediately sign off of skype. Of course we would check the weather and there was no storms where he was. Then we would see his facebook activity rise, and notice that he had been playing red dead all day on xbox live. Haha.
Unfortunately for him, this story is all in the past tense for a reason.
Funny Comic, A lot of people I work with are remote and this stuff hits home. Good stuff!
You could also replace "work at home" with "CG Art Contest" and it holds true too.
This
I do miss the people. And the fresh air. And daylight
I love the interruptions at work one rings true to some co-works ha.
i dont laugh too much
this is still big mystery to me
no work no pay
more work done = more cash in the bank
But sometimes i unwisely dick around during the day so I end up crash and burning past midnight to finish a model.
