Flexible Gets it Done
Hi fellow Hiveians,

Today I wanted to appreciate having flexibility in life!

# Flexible Gets it Done

It's interesting, being able to be very flexible in the workplace.

I've been one that has really been lucky in that I've had some pretty awesome jobs in my career so far. I hope I can keep the streak up, but who knows what will happen in the future. In the meantime though, I've certainly made sure to enjoy what I do and having great flexibility has really helped!

I've been trying to get a specific task done for about a week now, but every time we got to the next step we got stymied by some other thing. First there was a versioning issue.. then there was a space issue and now we've finally got those behind us, I attempted to get my needed task done. The challenge was is that I had to do it late in the evening!

I think having the flexibility to do work, even if it's above and beyond what I need to be doing, whenever it is convenient for me is a really important and cool thing to be able to have! Of course there are plenty of work-life balance concerns there which are entirely valid. An important part of it though, is that sometimes you just have to get something done and it is convenient to be able to do it after hours when there really isn't anyone around or a lot going on.

I did run into a little bit of a hiccup when I was giving it a go, but thankfully after some searching the web.. I ended up realizing that it never hurts to just try again LOL it's kind of like the IT mantra... did you try rebooting? Well, damn it, if just trying to kick it off a second time didn't solve my issue.. then I'd be damned! I got rolling and was able to get things completed. 

I really try to limit my after-hours work these days, especially because my son is at a really good age where we can do a lot of fun things and family time is incredibly important to me. If I do HAVE to do some after hours stuff, I make sure it is at an hour when he is sleeping so that I don't waste any of my time that I spend with him.

I know that I won't always have this type of flexibility in my work schedule, but I think it was such a key and pivotal time in his life and development to be able to spend far more time with him than the average father would with their kid. I am hopeful that we can improve the jobs in the future and be able to keep remote work alive and healthy for a lot of industries because when people are able to have their own schedules and work when it is convenient, then they are happier and willing to go a bit above and beyond when it is needed!
