*sadly continues to work from office not located at home*

Same. Although I find coming into the office to give me a sense of normalcy.

my internet was jacked up yesterday & no one was really up until noon.. I wonder if there is a way to switch bandwidth from the commercial districts to the residential areas?

regardless Ive got some conf calls today that need to go well so I am going to the office - I have my "I work for a Contractor" get out of jail free card - but I dont think they are stopping people..

My "get out of jail free" would be I work for a water utility

I love it. The work from home BATTLESTATIONS thread.

I'm just setup at the dining room table. I missed having 2 monitors at work, so I just went with 2 laptops!.On the left is my work laptop for VPN, CAD, FEA, and network folders. On the right is my personal laptop for web-based stuff that doesn't need the work network: email, calendar, Microsoft Teams, Slack, to-do lists and bullshitting online (EB boards, youtube, etc).

I should move the router to the basement (my temp office) so i can plug into the LAN- I think that gives me first dibs on “the internet” in the house?

Also the cat does not like sharing it’s bathroom area with me-

I put the husband in my craft space. Problem is, now his computer crap is taking up all my crafting space even on the weekend!

Coworker posted his home office to an internal company blog. Figured it must be the only place he gets peace and quiet from his kids!

haven't done a full transformation yet bc I had to carry in, put together, and flip upright that big ass heavy desk by myself in the small constraints of this tiny ass den. but i love it. i have plans to replace the dark black shelf and the shit over by the window too, but I can only do and move so much at a time as one person. lol

I finally "finished" screening in my porch this past weekend.  Good news - Now I can work outside without mosquitoes bouncing off me or chickens crapping on the deck.   Bad news - dog forgot that we now have screen installed.  Pet screen - 1, doggo - 0

Den?  Does your big monitor have double duty as your tv?

I think what I miss the most is having 32"+ desk area so you can have paper in between you and keyboard?  I may grab some plywood and rig something up - my current desk width is only 24"

^That's the biggest thing I hate about working at client sites.  I rescued the desk I have from an office that was closing.  The working surface is 36" x 72".
