HG from Home: Steve

What’s your desk set-up like from home?

My setup is sweet! I actually had it all ready to go pre-COVID because I wanted a space at home to work on some personal projects and play games. So the timing worked out really well!

What have you enjoyed most about WFH?

The one minute commute! I'm saving about two hours a day travelling to and from the office and I've been having breakfast for the first time in ages! Also just having the flexibility to do things around the house during the day I wouldn't otherwise be able to do until the weekend.

Have you overcome any challenges while WFH? 

Probably working in the same room as my partner. She's ALWAYS on phone calls, so my greatest investment has been noise cancelling headphones.

What do you miss most about being in the office?

Easily the banter— just seeing everyone’s face and being able to have a chat (and a cheeky pub lunch).

What have you been working on lately?

Lots of different things actually! There have still been a few studio photoshoots happening. Recently we did one each for Vital All-In-One and Lancôme. There are also a few more coming up in the next couple of weeks.

Have you been doing anything differently?

Everything is pretty much business as usual on my end. The only difference really would be working from home in my trackies! 

What is your go-to snack at home?

Lately it's been pita bread and eggplant dip. But I've also been known to smash the occasional blueberry punnet when I feel like treating myself.

While working from home, have you…

… done a virtual meeting with trackies or pjs on? YES

… shopped more online because you’re home to receive it? Surprisingly no. I think I was getting more delivered to the office than I have been here.

… had to balance working with a partner/housemate? YES

… enjoyed longer sleep-ins? YES
