Working from home is no longer a trend – it’s a lifestyle. With many offices closing permanently during the pandemic, more and more employees are opting to work remotely. There are plenty of perks that come with this decision. Without a commute to worry about, there’s more free time to enjoy your living space and neighborhood. Still, working from home can be isolating if you’re not thoughtful about how you spend your time.

If you’re considering living the WFH lifestyle from Bull City, keep these tips in mind:

Start Your Day at a Local Cafe

Some remote workers worry about losing the human interactions typically associated with office life. By starting your day with a fresh cup of coffee at a nearby cafe, you can caffeinate and enjoy small talk with your barista before logging on for work. Bring your laptop and set up in a cozy corner – we’re big fans of Foster Street Coffee and Oak House Durham. Both are mere minutes from the Vega, too!

Personalize Your Home Office

You can get more work done when your office space is pleasing to spend time in. If you haven’t already done so, invest in some quality office furniture that’s as functional as it is fashionable. Condos at the Vega offer plenty of wall space to set up bookshelves, desks, or floating shelves. Even our one bedroom units feel spacious enough for a dedicated office space!

Take a Walk

When you’re ready to take a break, get some steps in by walking through the American Tobacco Campus. You’ve likely already dined in the tasty restaurants or taken in a baseball game nearby. Now, slip on a pair of headphones and bask in the ambiance of the multi-use space. It’s dog-friendly, too, so feel free to bring Fido along for a stroll.

Embrace Happy Hour

Once the working day is done, take advantage of your prime location downtown and head out for happy hour drinks and snacks. There are no shortage of great specials, and ending your day with some fun is a great way to maintain your ideal work/life balance.
