Noise cancelling headphones and a sign that says ‘fuck off, I’m working’? 😃
I use the spare room as my office and I only go in there when I’m actually at work so it feels very separate. I have a work laptop and an iMac in there and then a MacBook I use outside of work, since GDPR came in they advised us no email etc on non-company/secure devices so once I leave that room there’s no plugging back into work stuff, and I think that’s very important cos you can feel like you’re permanently at their beck and call.
I normally just shout that at them
We only got given laptops about 5 years ago and working from home is still not really encouraged, so the front room was given over to the kids. I'm up with the wife just after 6, so I will work til around 8, feed the monsters, then start work again, scrum meeting at 10 and then couple of hours break at dinner. I'm doing Mon/Wed/Fri at home and Tuesday and Thursday morning home, afternoon in the office.
Even though there were only 5 of us in today, I still only did half the work I did at home yesterday due to chatting and stuff.
