To work remotely you need to discipline yourself. However, if you master it, the life changes. You can enjoy the beaches of Valencia, fashion cafes of Milan and port of Lisbon while working.

I‘m afraid of people since I started working remotely. Not because I‘m used to be alone, but because I appreciate it even more.

Working remotely means I can drive my grandpa to the doctor in the morning and catch up with work whenever I can.

I love changing coffee shops where I work. God bless you laptopfriendly.co

When you entirely cannot understand what a colleague is saying on hangout calls due to heavy accent and just saying ’yes’ and ’that makes sense’ throughout the whole call. Then he invites you again and you keep telling him that texting on slack/emails are much more productive 😬😬

There is this client of mine, we only involve in volunteering, collaboration and some services we offered. After finish the project, he annoyingly find faults with us for no reason because we make contacts with the community. He is afraid of losing his market and control of the community. You can't control people who we communicate with, whereas you're doing for business and we are doing on personal cause. There are people out there who greedy for money, they are knowledgable but they like to stir stories around. We are glad that we communicate with others, they told us about all these information. They make used of us as much as they can and also called us "workers" whereas we are collaborators only, working for a specific project time frame given. And now he is texting us all over whatsapp because he saw we building another project which has nothing got to do with him, his business, his brand, his marketing and the list goes on. These people are really pain in the ass. They are nothing but just greedy beyond control, it's fine to do what they want, it doesn't bother us. But now we have our own project. We are not ever a business, we just helping others in need with a small amount of money target to provide basic necessity to live. We are upset by the way this founder's behavior. We are very patient with whatever communication and we are clear about any discussions. He told us this is bad. But in our opinion, we are not disturbing his business nor his partners. We are just helping out a cause. We are so done. I am so done. I'm so tired thinking about this kind of people in my life. It sucks really.

Being sick while working remotely is the worst. It’s hard for me to draw a line between work and rest. I want to work but I need to rest... but my laptop is so close and I just need to do one thing... I need help, please give me your tips

I started hating NDAs so much, like with a burning passion. Let me show my work and get more clients, assholes!

I think i need to let myself work on the things i care about and get excited but somehow i feel like i’m in my own world

I've been working remotely for so long, I don't own a winter coat. During winter you'll find me working from my cosy office.

It has challenges but I love being a remotee. Office again after 2.5 years as a remotee? Fuck no! I think I could go like this for at least 10 years.

Pro of remote work loneliness is that I am much more creative. Being alone helps me have ideas and really develop them in my mind. In an office, this process would be interrupted by many other things. This is an interesting counterpart.

"I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work." https://youtu.be/djdQDsB55QI (Apologies if it's been done to death already)

The biggest secret that no one will admit is that coworking spaces are the least productive places to work and pretty much cafeteria to socialize.

Working remotely is a sure proof way to increase your caffeine intake, find ways to do anything but the work you need to do and to tell yourself that you'll do it just after you "insert random excuse". Remote work is basically procrastination with half hour work frenzies when the deadlines start piling up. Still beats 9 to 5 though.

Remote work has pros & cons for an employer, but it gets you the best people to work on a product. You shouldn't limit yourself to a few guys near your area. The Internet is now prevalent, so unless the job requires physical labour, you have the entire globe at your disposal.

Pro: Having a lot of freedom and dictating your own hours. Con: Having to work on a Saturday because you spent Wednesday watching a squirrel documentary.

It's been one month now and I'm starting to talk to my cat. I hope she can get me out of my comfort zone!

Right now i'm doing work at home, my laptop crash 3 months ago while i had alot of projects on going, i had to borrow 3 laptops from friends turn by turn each month to complete my task, suddenly some kind soul came to me a bought me a new macbook pro 15inch 2018 i7 laptop, now i have to clear last 3 months work while going broke, and now i can't take other new work, only time will tell how hardcore my life is right now. But i found remotestories.com, maker's kitchen and product hunt, keep me productive and sane to speak to new people who are same industry with me, i continue to finish my stuffs. After that i need a break to eat something nice, pray to god and also meet some awesome people. Of course nature, island-hopping and good food is needed.

Remote work is superior because if you start crying during a meeting you can just pretend you have a shitty wifi connection, turn your video off and try to keep it together until it's your turn for a status update

I wake up, go downstairs and I'm at work. I finish work and watch Netflix and go to bed. Rinse, repeat 5 or 6 days a week. Sometimes 7 as I work for myself. This isn't healthy.

Lots of high-profile companies reached out for interviews, but once I told them I am only looking for full-time remote positions, they all silently disappeared. It's really really hard to get a full time remote job even if you have a competitive resume and career. People don't appreciate your time and effort because you are just another tiny voice on the internet, and they can easily turn you off.

My favorite thing about remote work is the freedom to work wherever I want either from a coworking space or a neighborhood cafe as long as I’m productive, I’m happy.

It turns out that the clocks go back and forward on different dates in the US and Europe. Two meetings were rescheduled because I was not aware of that.
