I love remote work. But wherever I work, I need a place that is clean, consistent, and my own.
My home office is that. But I haven’t always had one. I’ve had a desk in a bedroom more than once. The more dedicated to the purpose a space is, the better. But in the very least, I need a desk that is my own and I can leave it as I want it and no one will disturb.
Coffee shops and such are a nice change of pace every so often for a few hours, but not for managing everything every day.
My and my workspace become one over time, and infidelity doesn’t pay.
