With the trying time, we live in, working at home has become the new normal. With the on and off lockdowns, most of us who have office jobs had to convert our bedroom into a multipurpose space, especially in condos or apartments.
Our home has become a one-stop-shop with everything we had to do in them because of the pandemic, and I can personally tell you that I had to separate my bedroom from my home office because it was getting too much. I was feeling suffocated by my work.
Thankfully, my roommate and I work for the same company, and we decide to run our living room into our communal office space and decide to leave our bedroom as our private space because you need to separate the two to stay sane these days.
