It's Time to Work... From Home

新冠肺炎疫情急遽升溫，許多企業都決定讓員工「在家工作」。隨著科技進步，透過網路遠端工作也早已不是件難事，但真正的問題是……我找不到離開被窩走到電腦桌前辦公的動力。

The number one benefit of working from home is the short commute.

在家工作最大的好處就是通勤距離變短。

I love working from home because I can show up in pajamas and get along with everyone in the office.

我超愛在家工作，因為這樣我可以穿睡衣上班，又能跟辦公室裡的所有人都相處融洽。

Sure, working from home can have its disadvantages. I miss the office politics, the lack of freedom, and having to wear shoes.

當然，在家工作也不是沒有缺點。我還真想念充滿利益競爭、缺乏自由，還要穿鞋子的工作環境。

When you work from home, a Tuesday looks pretty much like a Saturday.

在家工作的時候，星期二和星期六其實差不多。

I should really log onto the system and pretend to work.

我真的應該登入一下公司的後台系統，假裝我有在工作。

Pants? No, thanks. I’m working from home today.

穿褲子？不用了謝謝，我今天在家工作。
