I am a freelance designer, so I can work anywhere. For two years, I worked at home, but I felt lonely and I couldn’t concentrate. My bed and my fridge were always too close!
Men frilanser dizaynerman, shuning uchun istalgan joyda ishlay olaman. Ikki yil uyda ishladim, lekin o‘zimni yolg‘iz his qildim va diqqatimni jamlay olmadim. Karavotim va muzlatgichim doim juda yaqin edi!
Now I work in a small cafe near my flat three days a week. The coffee is good, the internet is fast, and the music is quiet. I see the same people every day, and we often chat during breaks.
Hozir haftasiga uch kun kvartiram yaqinidagi kichik kafeda ishlayman. Qahvasi yaxshi, interneti tez, musiqasi past. Har kuni o‘sha odamlarni ko‘raman va tanaffuslarda tez-tez suhbatlashamiz.
Of course, there are some problems. Sometimes the cafe is crowded and noisy, and I have to buy coffee every two hours. But for me, the advantages are bigger than the problems.
Albatta, ba’zi muammolar ham bor. Ba’zan kafe gavjum va shovqinli bo‘ladi, har ikki soatda qahva sotib olishim kerak. Lekin men uchun afzalliklar muammolardan katta.
Over time, I created some rules for myself. I always sit in the same corner, far from the door. I put on my headphones when I need to concentrate, and I take them off when I want to talk. I also leave a good tip for the staff, because I use their table for many hours.
Vaqt o‘tib o‘zim uchun ba’zi qoidalar o‘ylab topdim. Doim eshikdan uzoqdagi bir burchakda o‘tiraman. Diqqatni jamlashim kerak bo‘lsa, quloqchin taqaman, gaplashgim kelsa, yechaman. Xodimlarga ham yaxshi choychaqa qoldiraman, chunki ularning stolidan ko‘p soat foydalanaman.
On the other two days, I still work at home, but I try to make it feel like an office. I get dressed as if I am going out, I work at a desk, not on the sofa, and I finish at six o’clock. Then I close my laptop and don’t open it again until the next morning.
Qolgan ikki kun hali ham uyda ishlayman, lekin uni ofisga o‘xshatishga harakat qilaman. Xuddi tashqariga chiqayotgandek kiyinaman, divanda emas, stol ortida ishlayman va soat oltida tugataman. Keyin noutbukni yopaman va ertasi ertalabgacha ochmayman.
Tushundingizmi?
Javob topa olmasangiz, «O‘qish» bosqichiga qaytib, matnga qarang — bu ham mashq.
