One of the hard things about working from home is the isolation. Oh sure, you might be surrounded by your kids and spouse and other house peeps but when you are isolated from those that know about your work and are actually interested in what you are doing it can get a bit lonely.
Anyone that has ever managed employees knows that feedback, formal reviews, goal setting, and team meetings are essential to keep staff motivated, on task, and feeling like they are part of the company. This is needed even more so when employees work remotely and don't see each other every day.
Recently my computer died, crashed, and otherwise said it wanted to take a vacation. Up to this point it had been giving me grief and frustration and made it hard to get my job done in the normal time it would take me. My level of productivity suffered and so did my patience.
I took it into the computer fix-it shop so they could perfrom CPR. My company approved the repairs and even the rush service so I could get it back faster. I had to call the company ahead of time to ask some questions and they answered the phone with enthusiasm and a quickly spoken but long greeting. I could have sworn the man said he loved me. Yep!
After calling several more times to check on the computer and for follow up questions after I had picked it up and brought it home, I heard it again.
I recently saw their television ad and sure enough, no doubt about it, they say 'we love you!' Wow!
My point, and I do have one, is that you might be suffering from isolation and a lack of validation and communication so if you need a little pick me up why don't you give PCLaptops a call and let them tell you they love you!
