im getting distracted too much by bullshit and i desperately need an officespace to set up my own sexual cubicle to wank off at. Between phhones ringing,people popping up,and various other distractions my work hours are shrinking from 16 hours a day to around 10

I feel your pain TDF. We work from home but recently had to move into a bigger place so that we could separate the office from the living room. The TV can be a nasty distraction and so can the baby when she is screaming. Now if she's really throwing a fit, my hubby can close the office door and carry on without the distraction.

Get an answering machine & put the ringer on low or mute while you work. Tell people to come back later when you are not working & tell them what hours you work. Keep to a schedule. They will either tell you to fuck off or they will take the hint & only show up when you're not working.

I just make my g/f answer the phone.

Luckily me and my wife both are into high tech gigs. We dedicated the rec room into an office with all our gear.

That way I can work from 8am or so til 6pm and then head upstairs and seperate the two worlds from each other. It really works best man ( and a kick ass tax write off)

Stop crying and go back to work

good point

netstarz · 05-08-2003, 11:09 PM

I am thinking of getting an office in town just so my damn family will quit asking me what I fucking do all day long. Small towns suck.

Carrie · 05-09-2003, 12:16 AM

Try having your desk in the kitchen, two feet from the fridge and another two feet from the dinner table, with a 5yr old and a 3 yr old interrupting you every two frigging minutes. Arrgh.

And before anyone starts in on me - all they see while they're awake is HTML and PHP coding. Pic resizing etc gets done while they're asleep.

You too? lol I need an office I can partition off so I can host 10 ir so cam chathosts in there........ Then have a family reunion and just let everyone see what I do.

Snake Doctor · 05-09-2003, 01:19 PM

Don't turn the TV on until you're done for the day. Get an answering machine and don't answer the phone during the day. (If its a work related call that's cool, but if its personal make them leave a message and call them back when you're done working)

Being self employed takes a lot of discipline, that's why not many people can do it. Most people need someone to give them a "to do" list and look over their shoulder to make sure they're doing it, otherwise they'd just fuck off all day. Those people aren't entrepreneur material.

After recently going through a torturous experience living with a girlfriend I've decided that working from home is great if you live alone. It saves me the money I'd have to spend on an office and if I get insomnia I can work at 3am in my boxers.
If you live with someone else (roomate, girlfriend, wife & kids) then go rent an office. For some reason when you work from home people don't seem to get the fact that you actually have to work, and they feel that they can barge in on you at anytime to talk or to argue or to ask you to do something or whatever. Another month with that bitch and I'd be filing chapter 7
