Top Ten Signs You’ve Been Working From Home Too Long

10. You’re sitting on the couch with your laptop, with The People’s Court on in the background, and you say to yourself, “Didn’t I just see this one last month?”

9. You set up an Outlook task reminder for Friday afternoon…to remind you it’s Friday afternoon.

8. You’re seriously considering an “exciting career” in court reporting, medical assisting or criminal justice.

7. Personal injury law could be cool, too.

6. The dogs quit barking when the UPS truck shows up.

5. You set up an Outlook task reminder for Monday morning…to remind you it’s Monday morning.

4. Vacation time no longer counts unless you physically leave the house and travel at least 400 miles from home for more than three days.

3. You show up for a mid-day nail appointment in shorts, a t-shirt and a baseball cap and your manicurist says, “You have today off?”

2. You attach your headset to your phone to call and make a hair appointment.

And the #1 sign you’ve been working from home too long…
