Working from home

Sometimes it's really handy to work in the IT-business. Like today, when a cold has kidnapped my voice and given me a cough and runny nose. I don't have time to be sick. There's tons of stuff at work that needs to be done. So what do I do? I curl up into my bed, armed with hot tea and my laptop. Telephone-conferences, e-mail and instant messaging served as my tools for the day. Perhaps this strategy would not be effective in the long run, but on occasion it serves its purpose, like today:

1) I did not have to take out a sick-day
2) I also did not spread my germs to my friendly colleauges at work :)
3) I got the chance to go through that "to do"-list which normally has a tendency to get ignored in favour of more accute work.

Now, as my working-day is officially over I will continue recooperating from the couch watching re-runs of the "West Wing".
