        I currently work out of my home. For a few years, we rented a pretty nice office space, but we found that it was unnecessary and that we are more productive at home.

              I rent an office near my school, this way when i'm out of the house i'm all biz, helps as my employees still go to school and don't have cars, we schedule work with school time.
              80% of the work they do is at the office.

              For me it's about 40% as I work a bit more when i'm home

                i find that productivity and efficiency depend only on your behavioral patterns and work ethic. if your work ethic is there then you can work in the shittiest cheapest hole in the wallyou can find and accomplish just as much as you would at an office. however, mine isnt quite there with studying so i prefer the library....


                hmm is academics and school talk allowed on this board?

                      It's especially useful when mid-terms and finals start arriving, the employees are also busy as hell, so everyone takes time off til after the exams, no hassle of mixing work and school when it gets too hot.

                      The office is also practical when it comes to doing team assignements as well, as most good internet spots at schools are taken all the time

                          Definitely more productive in the office.

                              I almost never go to the office. I haven't been there since early December actually. I get more work done from home most of the times, but I do plan on getting back to the office routine soon.

                                  No interns, only 2 temp employees for now, but they're in the process of being trained so they know how to create their own projects and I don't always have to tell them what to do. I want them to then get people under them to take on bigger projects. They get an hourly wage plus a participation in the business' income.

                                          Yes. But even if I didn't, it's still a good idea sometimes to work from an office.. especially if your gf/wife makes you her errands bitch "just because you're home all day". When you work from home you need LOTS of self-discipline

                                                        at home.

                                                        Often times I wonder why
                                                        There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                                                        When sickness comes I must decide:
                                                        When feelings go, theres suicide.
