RE: Finding time when there is none - Micro business update
thank-you and yes, because I am at home, they assume I actually do nothing all day - not sure how they think my work gets done. The thing is I do find it hard to get motivated sometimes, and they usually pop round just when I have got my act together and stuck into serious work mode! This is one of the drawbacks to working from home, but I accept it will happen
Can you set up office hours? Like telling them you are not available between x and y unless it's an emergency?
Most people don't realise how much other people work unless they are present to observe it.
no I think they are past listening, and I do tend to work in short bursts throughout the day and evening as I can't work for long periods of time due to the fact I get fatigued very easily and I have a short attention span (from past medical treatment). I have asked that they phone before they come several times, but that falls on deaf ears!. If I knew they were coming I could at least plan my day a bit better.
