Woohoo, the first day of our vacation, amiright? Haha, not exactly. After driving 8 hours to Klamath Falls, Oregon, last night today I'm working from the hotel room in Klamath Falls. My day started with responding to some urgent requests at 7:30am.
"WTF are you doing working on vacation?" you might ask. "Aren't you always writing about how you don't work on vacation?"
The fact is I'm working today because it's not vacation. It's a workday!
One of the benefits of working remotely is that remotely means anywhere I have a good internet/phone connection and the ability to focus on work. It's not just working from home. I'm working from a hotel today because having left yesterday afternoon— and knocked out those 8 hours of driving— means I'm that much closer to starting my actual vacation later today.
