With oDesk and Elance and all the other places that has made it easy to do some telecommuting these days, working at home has become such an attractive option for many across the globe. Most people like myself are working from home in addition to their regular 9 to 5.
I know working at home is looked upon as taboo and I definitely can see that angle because I have a lot of people who are very old-fashioned around me. My parents don't approve of this work, which they feel I won’t benefit from because there is no daily interaction with people -or so they think. Even my roommate who is much older than me has a similar feeling about this whole idea of working at home.
But here is the good news. I am going to put all you people out there who are working at home or are hoping to do so one day, at ease by changing your mindset. The first thing is this: your life is not a resume!
