| Home Office Worksheet |
|
| Use this handy work sheet to locate and design your home office. |
|
| List three possible locations in your home for your office, which should include a work area for you and enough space for your desk, computer and telephone: |
| |
| 1. ______________________________________________________________________ |
| |
| 2. ______________________________________________________________________ |
| |
| 3. ______________________________________________________________________ |
| |
| |
| Make a physical survey of each location: |
| § Are phone and electrical outlets placed so that your equipment can easily access them? Or will you be faced with unsightly, unsafe cords snaking across the carpet? |
|
| § Measure your space. Will your current desk or table (or the one you have your eye on) fit? |
| § Do you have adequate lighting? If not, can you create or import it? Is there proper ventilation? |
| § What is the noise factor? |
| § Is there room to spread out your work? |
| § Optional: How close is it to the coffeemaker? Refrigerator? (This can be either a plus or minus, depending |
| on your current jitter factor and waistline.) |
| |
| Next, list three possible home locations for your inventory: |
| |
| 1. ______________________________________________________________________ |
| |
| 2. ______________________________________________________________________ |
| |
| 3. ______________________________________________________________________ |
| |
| |
| |
| Again, make a survey of each location: |
| § Is it climate-controlled? Will you need climate control? |
| § Is there adequate lighting, ventilation and space for you to easily access your inventory? |
| § Will you need to construct special shelving or add other storage space? If so, make notes here: |
