And now that you have forced me to reaslise that . . . you have effectively killed him. Murderer ! Also, I have e-mailed the G-Man to ask for an interview appointment.

The flipside is also you spend a lot more hours working on stuff as well, such as me editing Wordpress code on a Sunday evening. But its only temporary. Just like you being where you are for now.

My other coworkers are in the main office building, only a short walk away which I make many times a day to go fix something, but still . . . in another building. So when I’m working, I usually only have my music for noise and twitter for conversation. There are times when I love it. There are times when not having people around provides a (relatively) distraction free environment that makes for a much more productive day. And being the head of the department (and the only employee of the department lol) I make my own schedule and goals. Usually I have clear deadlines (things need to be done by Wednesday or by Sunday most of the time) which helps. But I’m constantly having to keep myself in check to get stuff done during the day. With no one around . . . I could easily spend the day doing nothing productive at all. Actually coming into work, to another building another place helps me have the ‘I’m at work now and need to do work things’ mentality. I’m not sure I could survive working at home. Maybe soon I’ll be in a more ‘normal’ office environment. 8- ) I don’t work alone, but I work in a building with one other person in it . . . and he spends all day cleaning so we hardly every talk.
