Okay, so here I am again. Working in someone else’s office on a contract or project basis and I’m sitting with nothing to do.

This is precisely why I like working at my own desk in my home office. At least when I’m there if I’ve got nothing on my desk to work on I can find other things to do.

Being in someone else’s office also leads to the other issue. Equipment, I mean computers of course. Right now I’m typing on a PC which is operating on Windows 98, an operating system I replaced no later than 2002. Then there’s the printer. It works, but it is an HP Laserjet III, which means it not only takes a long time, comparatively speaking, to spit out the first page but then it takes a long time for each subsequent page.

So, dear reader, if there are any, you can probably tell by this entry that I’m not entirely happy with this situation. Of course it doesn’t help that if I was in my home office I could be working my way through a short stack of projects. Possibly even making some money along with the progress
