The excitement of working while still wearing pajamas can suddenly be yanked away when a grown-up realizes that sitting at one's home office in pajamas might not necessarily be the most helpful way to be spending days and days. Such is the cycle of telecommuting, when people realize what might have initially sounded great--setting one's own schedule, wearing whatever--can also feel as though one has been confined to a particular space. And this becomes even more true for those who haven't made the upgrade to wireless internet at home--or those who refuse to put on pants and go take advantage of Wi-Fi signal elsewhere. Here five crucial reasons to make that kind of step forward, rather than keeping odd hours for no particular reason.
#1 - It means that those who need some discipline to move to a different space can set up their own schedules. And this is a crucial part of being able to find work these days anyway, considering the fact that people are more interested in the ability of things to get done, not the space when those tasks are actually accomplished and the locale that gets them done. With wireless internet, being able to turn any space into a reliable workspace becomes possible, and it also might mean being able to take on more work, too.
#2 - There's no need to be stuck at a desk on nice sunny days. This is a major morale factor, and one that cannot be taken lightly. For those kinds of people who are sick of being trapped indoors all day long and who have decided to work remotely to have a breather from time to time, there is no finer way than with the chance to move outside for a couple of hours with the same connection.
#3 - Getting out of the house but still getting work done becomes feasible. Some people work well with wireless internet in crowded locales, while others would prefer to be more in control of their environment. Either way, both options become feasible with the wonder of actually being able to connect in a variety of different spots around the city or around the country. And even those who think this option isn't great for telecommuting might change opinions after having that kind of freedom a couple of different times.
#4 - Other people can still use the world wide web when they happen to be home at the same time. For those who are sharing households with those who aren't at the office or at school all of the time, this can be an important way to keep everyone happy and contented, rather than stressed about their computer time.
#5 - With speedier 4G connections, being mobile doesn't have to mean being stressed. Plenty of responsible telecommuters are more focused on the fact that they are going to be unable to complete particular assignments from locales where there is less than the best possible signal. But fortunately, these days the Wi-Fi can handle sending and receiving huge chunks of information, so if an entire report has to be uploaded or there is other work to be done, it becomes less of a nightmare and more of a task that can be accomplished.
