http://www.mworker.com/en/pet-in-your-home-office/ Freelancers usually work from home. Working from home may sound luring for many, who haven’t experienced it, but the experienced ones know all the challenges of working from home. Freelancers can spend a week without ever seeing another human, and having a face-to-face conversation. A pet in your home office could be your loyal colleague, which prompts creativity, doesn’t allow feeling alone, and forces to make pauses during work hours. Why is having an animal in the home office can be so useful for you? Before we are going to elaborate about pet advantages in your office, we need to define, in what situations pets could bring you problems. “The dog ate my homework.” This excuse is good, when you go to primary school. In business relationships, this excuse can destroy your reputation. Also, if you have a customer visit at your home office, you should hide your pet in another room. Not every one of us likes animals, the customer can be allergic, or simply be afraid. For the animal, it is also stressful to be with new people every day. Have you ever heard about Take Your Dog to Work Day? On June 24, employees take their furry friends to work together. That is happening in USA, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. According to International Journal of Workplace Health Management, people, who have contact with dogs during work hours, feel less stressed, and work with more satisfaction. A pet in your home office also could be your source of ideas. If you are a writer or a designer, you should know that feeling of creative crisis, or the writer’s block. When you stare at a computer screen for hours, there is nothing better than playing with an animal in order to get some rest. Animals create a playful work environment that is important for the creative process. The last important thing about pets is communication. It is easy to feel lonely if you always work at your office alone. But if you have an animal, you can play with it, tell your secret life story, or slander your bad customer.
