8 reasons why working from home isn't all that exciting!

Many of us would love working from home.No traffic to get to the office, flexible hours and maximum possibility of organizing yourself, without having bosses and colleagues always on your heels.

But be careful, because the risk of going into a progressive ugliness is around the corner. Take care of yourself, even if no one has to see you.
