What is the main challenge you currently experiencing working from home?

Yes, radio tends to get turned off at 5pm

There's always Radio 6 etc. ('etc.' according to taste, obvs! )

I have R6 on all day. Mornings are worst.

But I was on an internal call one afternoon this week. I turned my radio down. A Buzzcocks song came on. and I just said, "sorry, Buzzcocks are in the radio" and turned it up.

Which reminds me. On another call a colleague said the letters "EMI" which is a three letter acronym for a project the company is doing. I replied "unlimited supply". He is ten years younger than me, and I had to explain the reference.

Dealing with the kids! MIssing from your poll, so I ain't filling it in.
"Daddy's on a conference call"
"Shhh. I said Daddy's on a phone call"
"Please, please stop singing Let it Go, Daddy's on a phone call"

MUTE

"DADDY'S ON A PHONE CALL, SHUT YOUR FUCKING FACE YOU ADORABLE BASTARDS"

I tend to have Radio London for most of the day (it's a reasonable mix of talk and music) then put a CD on at 5-sh when it goes all talk (with or without the Bozo Bullshit Bonanza)

"The endless longing for biscuits" might be the most appropriate thread-poll option there!

Still? I'd hoped we'd be challenging the Status Quo....

Reading transcripts of interviews with survivors of war crimes in northeast Uganda.

everyone morning: "right, you lazy asshole, tick all the boxes on that bad bastard to-do-list"

twenty minutes later: watching a man swim with sharks on youtube.

I've reopened the poll. I think it's important.
