Loneliness for rent. 1. Fantasy

Always open spacey. Stuffiness. The fight for the draft. Continuous background noise. Everyone needs to communicate. You are constantly in the headphones. But they do not save. Dozens of colleagues. You are sitting facing the wall. Everyone is watching your screen. And at any moment they strive to distract. Sneaking up from the back.

Now - at home in quarantine. Good luck that you can work remotely. With your beloved family. No office crush. But focusing is also not easy. Family requires attention victims .

Once quarantine is sure to end. I don’t feel like going back to the humane. I want loneliness. Productivity Improvements. There is an option. I can imagine what it can be.

I get in the car. I find myself in a not very remote suburb. Private sector. On one of the sites is the paradise of the misanthrope of the remoter-unsociable.

Ample parking. There is always a place. I get out of the car.

There are many small buildings on the site. Not even small ones. Miniature. Micro. Houses with dimensions of 2.4x3x3.5 meters. In each - an individual workplace.

One of these houses is mine.

Inside is a Spartan setting. Nothing extra. Desk, chair, good internet. Bed, wardrobe for things. Yes, you can not only work here, but also sleep. Live a few days. It’s no problem. No problem.

Comfortable atmosphere. Not hot in summer. Not cold in winter. There is always something to breathe. Air conditioning. Breather. Automation of carbon dioxide.

One of the walls is a large panoramic glass. "To the floor." In front of the window is its own micro-lawn. Small but own. In summer you can work outside. In good weather. In winter - to mold a snowman. Admire him while working in the house. No one flickers before his eyes. The path behind another blank wall.

The track is not easy. With a canopy. Connects workplaces with common spaces. Larger houses.

One of the common spaces is the kitchen. Here you can cook and eat. There is a normal, "urban" toilet. There is a shower. There is a covered terrace. There is room for small general meetings.

Gazebo with barbecue. The bathhouse. Table tennis. Cinema. Here, my dreams of managing loneliness have come true.

When I need to work hard, I work calmly. No one distracts by talking. No one flickers in front of his nose. I’m not fighting with anyone for atmosphere and comfort.

When I want to relax, I rest. Alone, or in command. Finally, I am free to choose.

Will we discuss it?

I invite you to discuss this fantasy in the comments. Those who might be interested. Especially those from Yekaterinburg. Because in Yekaterinburg it will be possible to try this in the very near quarantine time. More about the location - in my instagram @ itmancan.dom .
