Would you be more relaxed if you did your work from home?

1 Answer

Answer :

No. The lack of face to face social interactions would make me go a bit loopy. I hire a lot of people who have the option of either working at home or working in our office. You’d be surprised how many of them either refuse to work from home, or try it out, then come back. Others really love it, but the majority prefer working in our office.
