No one can take advantage of you unless YOU allow it. What I am seeing is most of you need some backbone. If you were in an office, do you think you would be allowed to have endless calls, visits from the family, time out to feed a child. My goodness! I have worked exclusively at home now since 2002 and never, ever did I let outside influences control my working. My ethics are such that any and everyone knew when I was working, I was NOT to be disturbed. I have an aunt, to this very day, tells me she did not know if she should call because of my work schedule. If dire emergency, call- if not choose the hours when I am NOT working. Simple to me. On this job if you do not work, you do not make money. I will not go to the poorhouse trying to afford others to take up my valuable time.
