Hi,
Just out of curiosity, which job sectors do people currently work in, or have worked in, in the past?
I work in adult social care, specifically learning disabilities /ASC, after exploring numerous other sectors that turned out to be ill suited to my motivation, social and preferred working styles (theatre / film /tv, admin. temping, call centres (yuck !), harvest work).
I have a question to those who work from home.
Did you look for positions that offer working from home and got it immediately or later after started your jobs.
I am trying to get working from home from my employer and it is a battle. I would say a war.
They absolutely do not want to hear about that.
I am not surprised.
Working from home can cause lots of difficulties for employers. It tends to be a privilege, not an automatic right, and also needs to be something that a manager can withdraw at any time, without really needing to give a reason.
Have you framed the discussion in terms of monetary value to your employer, or have you focussed more on what you want to get out of it?
This makes no sense to me.
If this is something I want, I will be depressed and unhappy until I will get it.
And I will keep looking for that everywhere around until I will get it.
That's great -- in that case you should have no trouble finding what you're looking for.
