First Cup of Coffee - April 28, 2020
For all of you working from home for the first time, I'm offering thoughts on drawing boundaries to restore work/life balance. Also a bit more on the #revengeofthepackrat and refilling the well.
This is the essay I mention: here (http://www.fantasybookcafe.com/2020/04/women-in-sff-month-jeffe-kennedy/) at the Fantasy Cafe for the Women in SF&F Month.
Here's the post I mention about changing outfits to create home/work boundaries https://blog.jeffekennedy.com/2010/11/05/exercise-to-writing-to-work/ and another blog post I wrote on working from home https://blog.jeffekennedy.com/2011/01/13/home-is-where-the-office-is/

IT workers hear the phrase “work/life balance” and just start laughing hysterically. It’s interesting to see so many people experiencing problems we’ve had for decades, particularly work creep. Being not available for an entire hour (including times when you should be asleep)? That would result in a serious reprimand. I once had to troubleshoot a problem with someone who was on a cruise ship as well as someone who had gone camping with a troop of Scouts.
Ha! That’s so true. Maybe we’ll come out of this with everyone understanding more about each other’s lives…
