5 Advantages of Working From Home

Most times working from home is underrated. Working from home has lots of advantages that it almost feels like a luxury

It can be so wonderful to not have to share workspaces with annoying coworkers and overbearing bosses

Let's talk about the 5 Benefits of Working From Home

1. Being Able to Save a Lot of Time
Working at home helps save a lot of precious time. That means that you can spend more time doing the things that you actually love in life.

If you want to be able to hang out more with your friends and family members, then working at home can open you up to that pure joy.

It is so nice to not have to deal with long traffic in the morning and again at night(Lagos people can relate wella)

Not having to deal with uber drivers or any other form of transportation daily

Not having to leave home as early as 4 am & come back around 11pm


2. Being Able to Work in an Environment You Love:

It can be nice to be able to work as you stare at your walls covered in photographs of the people you love the most in the world

Staring at pictures of family members all day definitely beats being in a cold and sterile office environment with harsh lighting

3. Being Able to Take Breaks Whenever the Need Arises
If you work at home, then you’re in charge of your own schedule. You don’t have to worry much about anyone monitoring you.

It can be frustrating to not be able to nap quickly any time your eyelids feel heavy or go for a refreshing walk any time when you feel overwhelmed with work.

4. Not Having to Spend too much on Food:
It can be frustrating to have to buy food daily from local restaurants and fast food joints or pack food from home.

Paying for food outside can cost a lot. When I was working as a cashier with L.G., I used to spend 2/3 of my salary on T.P & the rest on food. Yes, no savings!

5. Not Having to Pick Out Outfits

Thinking of matching colours of shoes, bags & outfit is a herculean task

Back then, I used to spend my weekends planning clothes for the week.

To think that you have to iron the clothes to look professional

At home, you can wear your softest pair of leggings around. You can even keep your pyjamas on.

It's just bae

..
What do you do for a living?

I also work on Fiverr. But I have been trying to get a job on Upwork for more than a year. Please can you put me through? Thanks.
Fiverr is my major source of earnings. I am still struggling with upwork, but then I believe that it's still down to the basics;
-Sending good proposals and on time.
-Having good samples to attach when sending proposals.
-Having a good professional profile.
-etc. Plus luck.

I am still struggling with that platform and I will keep trying till I get it right.

You're right. Most importantly, you earn hard currency.

Earning in dollars while working from home is still a rare privilege in Nigeria but can also be stressful and frustrating, especially if you are married with kids.

- Constant interruption from the kids,
-The need to attend to issues that would have been settled if you weren't at home,
- Dealing with difficult clients,
- Gaining weight,
- Spending more hours working
- Less social interaction
- Health related risks

I laughed when I read someone's comment, saying it encourages laziness! Well, it might be true if you are into selling of items online, but if you do render services, men, no room for laziness.

Notwithstanding, I still prefer it a million times to reporting at the office every damn morning.

Same here. Fiverr is my major source of earnings. But I don't know why Upwork is difficult like this. And it's frustrating sometimes.

Quick backshots while waiting for app to build.
Quick nap while waiting for your next meeting.
Quick puff while waiting for your turn to speak in a meeting.
A quick way to grow old alone, become socially awkward and eventually choke on your junk food and die with no one to help you.

Onsite is 100x better than working from home in the long run.

I mean, imagine not being able to leave work stuff at work? Anxiety and depression living with you at home 24/7

Lol

Tommorrow, I'll make a post on how to effectively deal with this.

Stay tuned�

Chai imagine being able to

1. sleep by 11pm and wake up by 8am (instead of the usual 10pm-4am)

2. zero traffic (The mad people of Lagos roads won't frustrate you)

3. no overzealous boss that will make sure you work to the edge

4. To eat homemade

I'm gradually transitioning from Engineering to Tech, I won't be left behind
