I need to get my office space back!
I've always been a quiet studier/worker. In college, I couldn't study in the dorm room or apartment, I had to leave and go to the Library for a few hours. I don't like to waste time or be around all the distractions. It's better to seclude myself entirely for 2 hours, then be around friends or in a group for 4 hours. With work, I'm very similar. I like to put my headphones on or go into "heads down" mode and get things done. I'm at work to accomplish a specific job and don't like to be wasting time talking about last night's game or whatever else in going on at the water cooler.
At home - I lost my office area to storage a few months ago. So, I'm currently set up on the dining room table - which is surrounded by distractions. Big screen TV one room away, outdoors right behind me, kitchen stocked with food in front of me. It's terrible. This weekend, I need to re-discover my secluded office area in the basement. Although it grungy and a little stinky down there, I'll probably be a lot more productive in the quiet.
Sometimes, you just have to put your head down and get things done.
