This.is.hard.
Especially if you are not, or cannot be setup properly; or if in this case you have kids in the house at the same time.
And the corollary, working from home does not mean working more than your usual number of hours; so no work in the evening or during the week-end.
I'd rather be phishing!

That's the other thing I will avoid. Once I am working on something I tend not to stop until someone turns the lights out on me!

No kids, no wife, no girlfriend. If I get interrupted, it's by phonecalls. And people who know me now understand that if they wouldn't call me during work hours about something if I was working at an office, then it should wait until after 5. Most are smart enough to understand that.

Totally agreed. If I'm on a roll and I'm making great progress at something, then I'm not necessarily gonna stop just because of the clock...but I absolutely do not make a habit out of this.

Life choices my friend. I still remember some aunts of mine thinking I was being cute when I said at the age of 7 I was never going to get married. The older I get, the less incentive I feel I have to change that. And the more people give me reasons not to.

I don't mind working from home - I have the house to myself (except for the pugs, who sleep all day). I have worked from home several times, since I live in Florida and have worked (remote) in Iowa, Virginia, and a company about 40 miles away. I agree with the precept of dressing for work, and no non-work interruptions (no TV, Pandora playing, dedicated work-only laptop). Since the first of the year medical reasons make work from home almost mandatory.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, navigate a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects! - Lazarus Long

Hi All,
Back from FAT testing last week spent the day updating JIRA tickets with results and playing with the camera that was bought for taking photo evidence. Using the basic interface it is just acceptable, As it is a web camera rather than a DSLR we can't use the recommended DigiCamControl. It is an Anran 'AN 80-F' I have been using the iSpy 64 software which gets around most of the issues we were seeing. I was wondering if there were any better options you know of...

I have this allusion that I can except that sometimes people get words mixed up, but then realize it effects me to the point that I must allude conversation with them.
