What It's About
A caller working from home realizes it's great until it isn't.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1481
Have you been spending a lot of time indoors, talking to someone on the other side of the screen … perhaps with a partner or small child or roommate nearby who’s also trying to work online? It’s a club none of us wanted to be in. I especially feel for everyone in small apartments or in a situation where there are multiple people sharing the internet connection and trying to make phone calls in a small shared space. Might there be a way to create some distance for yourself—and not just in pandemic times, but to be able to focus on your side hustle in the midst of all the busyness? In today’s story, a listener is feeling cooped up and wants to find a small space outside her home to dedicate to her electronics repair service."Hi Chris, this is Sara and I just started listening after a friend recommended it. I've been working at home recently, and it's a little crowded. To devote more time to my side hustle repairing headphones and other electronic items, I'd like to rent a small workplace near my home. Among other things, I'm thinking it would help to separate the time I spend on my day job from the time I spend on my after-hours job. I looked at getting office space, but it seemed really expensive. Is there somewhere I could rent for maybe $200-300 a month, or perhaps even less? What’s your thoughts on this? Thanks!
