Try to disturb your little lie in- Because you don't have to make time for travel- you can pretty much get up 5 mins before you are due to work, so your partner will go about their normal routine as noisily as possible, bounce on the bed while trying to put on their socks and blow their nose really loudly. All because they resent your extra shut eye.

Relationships on Female First

Email, call, or text you at 9 to make sure you got up- Just because you are working from home doesn't mean you suddenly forget how an alarm clock works. They relish in being able to wake you up because they are awake and want someone to share their morning blues with.

Accuse you of doing nothing all day- Just because there was no-one there to watch you. Even when you show them the list of things you have gotten done because there were no phones to disturb you- they still think you've watched TV all day.

Make fun of your attire- Your working from home so why not wear your pjs all day? It's one of the perks- right? Their mockery is just jealously because they would also love to stay in night time clothes rather than their uncomfortable pant suit all day.

Sniff around you- If you're still in your pjs you've probably not washed either so you may have an aroma by half 5. But a shower would eat into your little lie in so you would rather take it after you finish- they totally would if they were in your position.

Ring you in the afternoon- And if you don't answer right away- they think you are slacking- even though you permitted to pee and make yourself something to eat when working from home.

Let you make the evening meal- Because they left the house and got dressed today which apparently means they did more than you and are therefore more tired.

Ask you to 'pop' out- And run and errand the night before- and you kindly remind them that you're not their personal secretary.

Try to get you to finish early- You mention AGAIN that there's this little thing you have called a conscience- and it basically means you can't watch TV with your loved one while on the clock.

Moan that the house is dirty- Again- WORKING ALL DAY- not cleaning- WORKING!
