Workers from home, we salute you.
Along with our traditional officespace, a distributed workforce is something we’ve long supported at Beezwax. These are the days, and the ways, we lean into Working From Home. We've pulled some tips and tricks together into a forum, where you can vote, comment, and contribute.
One of our tricks for staying more connected has been to share photos of our home offices: our workstations, ourselves, our views as we look out from our desks…

The very suburban view out my window, which mostly serves to remind me when it's time to mow my lawn. I also get to watch people going for runs, walking their dogs, and taking their kids to school, which makes for a nice daily rhythm when taking in the view.
Yes, that red phone is a vintage landline.
