Working at home Both working at home and at office have their pros and cons, sometimes I really prefer working at home. It provides much more flexible time to work from home, by providing the possibility to go to places like bank or postal office whenever you need to, whereas if you are in office, you need to take leaves or get permission from your boss, which is a troublesome. It can also save time spending on commuting. Especially for those who live far away from their office, this is a good news. They don’t need to get up early, spend 1 whole hour on the buses, subways and cars. By long time commuting, people who work at office waste the time and energy which could have been employed on learning new things or modifying presentation slides. In the past, people find it inconvenient to discuss things if parties involved in the communication are far away from each other. But emerging of video conference improves the efficiency of communicating between people who set apart far. But of course, working at home means you are away from the group, from the colleagues, while human beings are ultimately social animals who need social, communications, interactions. What is a better opportunity in terms of interpersonal communication than working together with a group of intelligent people with great expertise.
