Pros and cons of working at home

Pros
5. It really doesn’t matter how bad you look.
4. If you want to, you can have ice cream for lunch.
3. You are immune to catty interoffice banter.
2. If you need to do some extra work in the evening or the weekend, you don’t have to take extra time away from the family by “going in” to the office.
1. You get to use your own bathroom (after years of restrooms open to the public, or shared office restrooms that were sometimes, even worse than public restrooms, this is definitely my #1.)

Cons
5. You end up looking bad for days because you’re not going to see anyone and no one will see you.
4. You can have ice cream for lunch.
3. You miss out on interoffice banter, catty and otherwise.
2. It’s rather easy to work more than you should.
1. No one cleans the office (or the kitchen or the bathroom) for you.

    I hear you on #1… I have major issues with workplace lavatories. They just stress me out.
