Do you bring work back to home?

I'm a housewife at present and I never like my spouse bringing work back home. Still he does it in some unavoidable situations where in I adjust myself for that short time. I always feel everyone should have a seperate timings for personal and professional lives.

Luckly, my work is not so busy and i do not need to do extra work after work. and now i live in the company.so if i have to work overtime, i will stay in my office. i don't like to bring work to my room. and so is my partner.

When i was still teaching... the only option if i want to finish all the work is to take home a lot of papers to check or lesson plans to write... it did not bother me at first... but when it came to the point that i don't do anything at home but paper works... i said to myself that this cannot go on forever... so i try to finish everything in school... But now that i am not a teacher anymore... i don't have anywork to take home... i just need to have my cell phone always turned on... so that my boss can call me anytime...

Dear subha12I am working in a PSU in the secretariat cadre and my job is just to arrange meeting, fix up appointments and tour along with boss hence it is notessential office work to bring home. Further I always prefer not to bring office work after expiry of office hours. I think during the course of office time you must complete your jobs. Brining office work in home means the person is inefficient who can not complete his job in office hrs . Moreover Ifn due to extreme urgency if I bring my office work to home my family members annoyed .I do not want to mix up office and home. pkc3000

its hard not to if you have a bad day at work

hi, i stay at home and i wish my partner to finish or leave all work at office. but sometimes, i understand the situation and allow to continue work at home too. :)

em]whistle[/em] sometimes, i did it as like today, i would go home and bring some work with me to do at home. its relatives thing in my opinion. if i feel necessary to get after the dealine so i prefer to bring home my working office if i am unable to finish it in my office. my husband really understand about my proffession and he doesn't mind at all or he actually mind it but he can't say nothing . however while i am doing my office work in my home, i also try to spend my time with him. i don't neglect him at all. few minutes some, i take a break and join with his activities

Sadly i dont shut down my pc when i leave work. i lock it and get my USB - still full of unfinished work. heheh i take home my work so i can finish some more and look into it some more. i hate to admit i am becoming so addicted to my work.

I work at home so it is always aropund me. I do walk away from it when I have put my hours in though. I used to work outside of my home for many years and it drove me crazy with alot of the people I worked with. I was alwasy bringing my work problems home and I hates it. My husband works nights and I do also even though i put in more hours than he does. We both spend time together when he gets off from work though and we put the work behind us until it is time for it again.

hi subha! i don't like working at home but there are times that i can't avoid bringing home some work. those are times that my work is piling up and i can't finish them all at the office. its not a problem with me because i'm single and nobody is bothered by it. i think i'm the only one bothered by it because my rest days are cut into some portion. but its okay with me coz it happens once in a while only.

I used to take work home. Now I do not. I have mastered the art of leaving everything in office the moment I stepped out of the door. If need to, I stay back an hour or two. It's healthier that way. LOL.

I would only do that when I ran out if time to complete the work in the office. if there is still time, then I would not bring my work home as I feel that at home, i should be spending time with my family and doing my personal things rather than my work.

most of the time I don’t bring work home. I will usually get it done at the office or continue working on it the next day. Unless I have a really really tight deadline to meet then I might bring work back home. That has happen only a few times though, where i had to work at home over the weekend. sucks but worth it- when your boss praises on what good job you've done ;)

Hello dear subha. I do not usually bring work home, but sometimes I do when I am pushed. It is ok for my partner to bring home my work. She does not mind too much. I am very happy for her understanding me. Thanks.

My husband is in business and he does bring work back home...which I do not like. He is always on the phone even after he gets home and it actually makes more work for me because I have to then make sure the little one does not trouble him. But frankly, I have no right to feel that way because....as a teacher, I myself bring work back home. Right now I am a stay-at-home mom....but soon I will start work...and I can't really say how it's going to work out with both of us bringing work back home and having to take care of the needs of two kids.

I work from home in a profession that requires a bit of a 'decompression' after an appointment. I take a few minutes to myself after an appointment to sort out how it went, do paperwork, that sort of thing rather than bombard my partner with 'my' stuff. Occasionally I run by him a problem I encountered to get his opinion, but most often I try to keep work out of our family life.
