    My New Office

    Well that's me all settled into my new offices in a shared building today.

    My own telephone line(3000 minutes included per month, UK or abroad), network & WIFI, mailing address, receptionist downstairs (shared), break out rooms, meeting rooms in addition a dining area & showers for the cycle in. Have an office big enough for four employees & so far bought in two desktops & a laptop. (More equipment at home to pick apart).

    Even though I don't actually have a business, any money coming in or a fricking clue what I'm going to do, I do have a shiny new desk, decent chair, security key fob, printer, books & more important lots of stationary (and someone who says hello to me in the morning when I come in to the office as opposed to a 'what the **** are you doing at home' look. It means I can escape the house, kids, wife, dog, bloke next door who drags his bins too loudly & can now happily watch Youtube all day without the missus barging in and banging on about not doing anything & the lawn needs cutting. I can now start upskilling & working on some side projects in peace & bloody quiet

    All for £199 per month, bargain.

          Translated: you purchased a garden shed from B&Q, on credit, and a gnome that you can talk to on the way in.

                I can think of few jobs worse than having to spend 3000 minutes a month on the phone!
