I recently posted requests for working at home advise ( listed as Hooray! I
sucessfully negotiated telecommuting thingies), and I now have two weeks
worth of experience...
I usually get professionally dressed and turn the tv onto cnbc - this keeps
me in business mode, in touch with the latest and helkps me to feel like Im
at work (i work indirectly for the NYSE).
I also call people and talk on the phone, which keeps me company but means
that I may have work to do on the weekends. I'm still adjusting to my new
schedule though, so thats okay...
