In the span of just a few weeks, daily life as we know it has taken a 180-degree turn due to the Covid-19 outbreak and resulting mitigation efforts. Local and state governments across the world have taken unprecedented steps to slow the spread of the virus through stay-at-home orders, mandatory or otherwise.
At any other period in time, such drastic measures would have certainly crushed the economy in all of its facets but fortunately, technology is on our side. Thanks to computers and the Internet, millions of people can effectively do their job remotely from home while complying with social distancing measures. Naturally, this cannot be said of every single job, but many different industries would be facing more dire consequences if not for the technology tools at our disposal.
That's the scenario that plenty of people find themselves in today, many being asked to work from home for the first time in their lives. At TechSpot, all of our writers have been doing this for over a decade. If you've never worked from home, let alone full-time, the prospect may seem daunting or outright insurmountable.
We want to help with a few helpful tips, not only of what you can do, but what you probably shouldn't. Our hope is that we can contribute with ideas that will get you than ready to tackle the challenge.
