Haveyoueverheardaboutteleworking?Itmeansworkingfromadistance,inotherwords,notworkingi... Have you ever heard about teleworking? It means working from a distance, in other words, not working in an office but working at home. You use the computer and the Internet to keep in contact with your boss, but instead of being tied to an office desk, you can work in the comfort of your own home.
The theory sounds fine, doesn't it? Why travel to work every day when you can be linked by modem? You can do all your research on the World Wide Web, and send in all your work by e-mail. Well, that's exactly what my boss said to me two years ago. "Jenny, how would you like to work at home?" he said ...
At first everything was fantastic. My job was editing academic articles for a university press, and so most of my time was spent sitting in front of a monitor and tapping away at the keyboard. Through the Internet I had access to all the information I could possibly want, with websites that give you data and opinions, and web browsers that help you to find your way around the system.
It was really good being at home, too. I didn't have to waste any time travelling, and I could stop and make myself a cup of coffee or a sandwich if I wanted to—I was totally free, and at first totally happy.
But then things started to change. I put on weight, because I wasn't going out as much as I had before. I stopped wearing smart dresses, because a jogging suit and trainers were so much more comfortable. My friends stopped telephoning because I didn't meet them on the bus or in the cafeteria. I started talking to my cat.
It was when I realised that I was looking forward to chatting with the postman that I knew something had to change. I needed to get back out into the world. So I phoned my boss: "Please let me come back to the office—I'm going mad on my own!"
And thank goodness, he did. If you want my personal opinion, teleworking may catch on in the future ... but not for me!
