Then came Bruce…
It seems that the music of summer is in extended play. My work mood has been affected big time! Productivity level is at low. I never complain about my work because it’s my passion, I love what I do. But this, the heat and all has been very much uncomfortable. Having a home-based job is quite cool but working inside a room under 38 degrees Celsius or hotter is absurd. Our air conditioner cannot compete with the heat so its not an option to use it since I’ll just be wasting money on electricity. Bummer!
So, Honey and I, decided a work around on this predicament. We adopted Bruce. A core2duo, HP notebook powerful enough to do my bidding as a web developer. I’m looking at an option to work outside the house to a fully air conditioned coffee shop or any place that serves chilled air and free wifi. We pre-tested it in starbucks and we’re happy with the connection, Its just that I have to spend a little more on coffee and donuts. It’s a good trade-off rather than working at home sweating, getting pissed -off, drinking iced soda like hell.

Honey also found Bruce to be a very useful tool with her blogging and work stuffs. We get to spend time together too and at times I want to play MTG, I can have her wait comfortably in the coffee shop sipping frapuccino and writing. Decision wise, its a good deal.
I hope it snows in Manila!
