Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Working at home using computers or telephones is better than working in the office. With more and more electronic equipments applied in the office to assist our working, some companies provide officers with optional choice of working at home using computers and telephones. This phenomenon causes a widely discussion among people who get accustomed to the traditional way of working in the office. As a young adult so familiar with the application of computers, I concede that working at home using computers and telephones brings us many benefits such as saving our time, making people more convenient and even protecting our environment. In the first place, working at the home saves our time in comminuting between the office and home. As a result, officers can take a full use of the saved time to company their family members. With the cities' expanding, the office buildings are stead in the Central Business Distract while officers’' homes are located in the suburbs. Consequently, the white collars have to get up at the five o'clock to arrive at office in time and return to home often after 7 PM. However, once officers choose to work at home, they not only can release from the suffering of riding a bus with the crowed people, but also leave the enough time to prepare lunch and dinner for their children. From my perspective, working at home provides a way to strike a balance between work and home since it permits us to stay with family members as long as we can. In addition, working at home means we have more private time so we don't have to pay much attention on our dressing, which it is great of convenience for people who are tired of making up. For example, in some companies it is ruled that personnel should wear the uniform in the office, which makes them feel constrained. But if we spend the office time at home, we can optionally choose the cloth style. Even if we put on the pajamas to write the reports sitting in front of the computers, supervisors hardly blame us according to the office rules. Without worrying about people’s comments on our wearing, officers certainly can push themselves wholeheartedly into their work assignments. The last reason why I support the statement is that working at home using computers or telephones, to some degree, have its advantages in environment protection. The most evident advantage is that without adding new working space, government can develop the unclaimed land into the green spot which acts as the supply station of fresh air in the central of the city. In addition, with the assistance of computers and telephones, companies could turn their working place into the paperless office. By this way, millions of trees can avoid being cut down by paper producing companies. There is no reason to refuse every possible way to take care of our earth especially when the environmental issue reaches to the point that it is no time to delay. In conclusion, working at home with computers or telephones pave us a way to a kind of more time-saving, convenient and environment-friendly lifestyle. With the increasing number of people developing occupational diseases caused by psychological pressure or environmental problems, I strongly recommend that people should attempt to work at home with computers or telephones. |
