I worked at home today for a couple reasons:
- I needed to do some editing and didn’t want to be slowed down by my work computer’s dying gasps.
- Major construction is occurring on my street, which makes getting home an exercise in frustration.
I enjoy working at home from time to time, but I don’t think I could do it every day. Having a disability such as mine already brings moments of isolation and working at home regularly would only exacerbate those feelings. I’m also fortunate to have great co-workers and I think I would miss interacting with them face-to-face. But I do appreciate the flexibility to work from home when my schedule allows. It’s not a crucial accommodation for me, but it does make life easier.
