Dear MEL Topic Readers,
The dark side of working from home:
loneliness
Working from home isn’t the same for everyone.
It is a challenging environment for those who are used to working with colleagues
in the office or dealing with customers face-to-face. When you work with
others, there are uncountable numbers of interactions that make you feel connected.
These physical, social interactions are essential for mental and emotional
health and welfare, which affects significantly on productivity,
motivation, and loyalty to the work. But when such social bonding is missed,
many workers seem to find themselves feel isolated or disregarded, and they
tend to take things from the dark side, according to some experts.
For example, not receiving a reply instantly to
your message or request make the person feel neglected, even though the
receiver has other immediate issues to deal with, such as changing the baby or boiling
pasta at home.
How should you deal with such work loneliness
that seems to last at least for a while?
Enjoy reading the article and learn some tips
to work from home.
