Even those with windows. Sure, people do decorate their offices, but there is a not too much that can be done to create a playful environment to stimulate the brain. </p><p> At home, I create a stimulating environment by listening to music, have some toys around or even repaint my home office with no complaints from </p><ul> <li>facilities</li> <li>co-workers</li> <li>management</li> </ul><p> It's my house after all, and I can do almost anything I want with it. </p><p> Quite often, I would feel like I was caged in while working in my assigned office. I could look across the aisle and see an identical office to mine. Granted, I shouldn't complain too much since I had an actual office with a sliding door to muffle the noises. Still, it wasn't the most stimulating environment around. </p><p> Working from home is great :) </p> Tue, 21 Feb 2006 04:47:03 +0000 urn:uuid:cd9b41e2cb4b630822a70471663332b7 fred@fredjean.net (Frederic Jean) http://blog.fredjean.net/articles/2006/02/21/yet-another-good-reason-to-work-from-home Work Hey FJ! I was just surfing Technorati.com and your blog came up in the Featured Blog link... the nitrozac'd picture of you. Very cool. small Internet isn't it! :-) Working from home is great, except it's a LOT easier to procrastinate and on the flip side, a LOT easier to overwork too. :D Tue, 21 Feb 2006 20:54:45 +0000 urn:uuid: http://blog.fredjean.net/articles/2006/02/21/yet-another-good-reason-to-work-from-home#comment-3
