Did you know that when the movie premiered in Hollywood, you got a "Honk If You Love Brian" bumper sticker?
I've still got mine.

I have in the past worked from Home when I needed to work on some document. Never an issue.
So with school being closed in Germany, I decided to work from home and to maintain social distancing
Day 1 : Single Monitor (compared to 2+1) sucked. VPN connection Sucked more. Daughters Tik Toking was getting on my nerves
Day 2. Changed Wireless to Wired internet and still VPN sucked big time . Ban on tik tok lead to a very angry and bored teen which made me fear for my life.
Day 3 : Drove early to work . Still social distancing as 70% of workforce in Home. All issues of Day 1 and Day 2 resolved.
cheers,
Super

Hang in there, mate. Hopefully the weather plays along and we can start doing our social distancing outside with a beer rather than inside getting on each others nerves.

I am social distancing by going to my office as normal. No-one else is there!
Effectively:
1. Private office
2. Private bathroom
3. All communication via email, etc.
4. I don't need to wear my headphones for music in the office.
5. No family distractions.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

You would seriously prefer to have to sit through reruns of the show's "greatest hits"?

No, because Herself wouldn't - so I wouldn't have to listen to it in the background ...

The only reason I know that show exists is i was looking for a TV program with a lot of seasons to do testing of my TMDB ("the movie database") library. It looked terrible, and the more i found out about it the more surprised i was that it is actually filmed, much less watched.

It is watched - nay followed - by a veritable legion of vacuous morons fans.
Just the theme tune is enough to start my gorge rising.

1) Don't go near YouTube ...
2) STAY OUT OF THE KITCHEN! If you want a coffee, make it, and go back to your desk ASAP. Lingering will mean you eat something because it's there and you're bored - and that's a killer for home working.
3) Try a video conference with work colleagues - see if they are in the same boat, and what solutions they have found.
4) Treat "work time" as an absolute - if you are normally there 9 - 1, half hour lunch, 1:30 - 5 then stick to it. If you start to eat into work time for stuff you want to do, it gets a lot harder to get back into it.
5) Take a 5 or 10 minute break every hour - CP is good - in an office there are always distractions, so you probably aren't staring at a screen for the whole 8 hour day. Your eyes, back, brain will thank you!

Are you telling us you only spend 5-10 minutes an hour on CP?
|
|
|
|

He's making up for all those missed hours earlier in his life before CP. Plus the 16 hours a day while not at work each get 5-10 minutes too! If you account for all of that it leaves... 5-10 minutes an hour for work.

Don't watch this[^]. It does not end well. They disintegrated a bunch of perfectly good little microprocessors which I would love to have here right now. That never gets boring.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

It seems to be the trend that popular websites and mobile apps are releasing desktop versions , yet not so long ago word going around was that desktop apps are dead. We are supposed to be in the Post PC era. It seems winforms developers like me are here to stay. The Post PC era talk was just a fantasy.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
