Here are some tips of working from home, and setting up a home office.
My observation
An alternative is to work in a low cost office near your home. I rented a low cost office at an industrial park near my home. I employ a few persons who live nearby to work for me in I.T. development and administrative work. Working near home has most of the covenience of working from home.

Employment of older workers
Can we identify organisations that are willing to spend money to employ older workers to provide customer service?
I saw some customer guides at MRT stations. They are employed by SMRT to guide commuters. I appreciate the work by SMRT in creating employment and to provide good customer service.
Let us identify other organisations that make this positive effort.

Customer Service
I have written several postings about the standard of customer service in Singapore. I have examples of good and bad customer service. Sadly, the examples of bad service are overwhelming.
It is quite easy to improve the customer service by simple changes to their operating procedures. But this require attention by decision makers.
Sadly, the culture in Singapore is for too many people, including service quality managers and customer service managers of large organisations, to follow instructions and preserve the status quo, rather than to innovate and change for the better. It seems that only the few people at the time can decide.
I like to ask my readers to help share the experience. Can you identify examples of good and bad service provided by the large organisations in Singapore, i.e. where it has a large impact on customers? Examples are bad call centers and websites that make life difficult for thousands of customers daily.

Comment moderation
When I moderate the comment, I can read the first line of all the comments that have been posted. From the first line, I am usually able to detect the znonymous comments of the two vile persons who keeps making personal attacks against me. I know these two persons as being a top manager of an insurance company (or an insurance agent working for him) and a cranky unemployed person.
I delete their comments without reading the rest of the comments.
I write this blog to educate the public about investment and insurance, to select the fair products and to avoid the over-priced products. Insurance and land banking agents who dislike my views are not welcomed in this blog. They can promote their views in their own blogs or facebooks.
