I am frequent reader of Business Of Software forum. Today I’ve found a thread that made me laugh very loud. Someone expressed his loneliness working alone in his new mISV:
Hi there,
I just started out working on my own. Everything is going fine and hopefully I’ll be able to make this vision a reality. The 1 minute commute is also very nice. So far the advantages are great except for one little problem.
Strange as it may seem, I seem to be missing the office. More like the nostalgia of having someone to say hi to. I realize all my life from school to work, I’ve always been in a group with a lot of people who did the same thing. Now for the first time I’m on my own. It seems like going your own way and choosing your own destiny is kind of lonely.
Anyone here like that? How did you make the transition?
And here it is the response that made me laugh rolling on the floor:
Get out of the house for at least an hour every day.
Walk to the local coffee store for a coffee / go to the Gym.
It gets scary when you realize you haven’t spoken to anyone except on a forum for a week.
It gets worse when you start talking to the cat.
The final sign is when you start scheduling meetings with the cat…..
