Anything I can do at work I can do from VPN but with a lot faster Internet and no phone distractions.
I have an old office chair and a roll top desk. I have tried the kitchen table and the coffee table in the living room...not good for the neck which is surgically repaired anyway.
I recommend getting an old GSA auction desk or spending the money on a decent desk and chair. Dont sit at the kitchen table or in the living room. I got an extra docking station from the office and hooked up a second monitor / television so that I can work from home with two screens and I have a keyboard and a mouse, attached to the docking station as well.
If you have a network or cloud based "Drive" that you can dump all your work into while at the office, as well as a way of getting behind the firewall from your home office, you are cooking with oil. That is what I do. I log into the network through a VPN and then I work from the house. the only thing that I can't do from my home office is go out and physically correct an issue at the office.
