A lot of people who don't often work from home are being encouraged to do so now because of the corona virus.
If you are one of them, are you taking advantage of the situation by working nude?

J.Mar 12, 2020I had to spend part of the day at work, but worked the afternoon from home yesterday. I did get to spend part of the afternoon working nude.

nudonyMar 13, 2020That's funny: just today my wife received notification from her job that all employees "are strongly urged" to work from home for the time being.
I brought up the fact that a lot of people are probably going to seize that opportunity to stay naked at home. I then gave her an inquisitive look; which she understood immediately "where I was going."
[em]As a sidebar my wife is a social nudist but is not much into home-nudism[/em]
She just laughed and said there was one small issue: the common use of Skype video in her company. She mused that she can see herself accidentally answering a Skype call from her boss and realize she is naked only after his face pops up on screen! It's a valid concern.
But still, I have the feeling that after some extended time working from home, she'll grow accustomed to not getting dressed right away in the morning.
Obviously I don't wish for the Corona hysteria to last too long; on the other hand it might do wonders for our nudist life.ReactReply - FU
FullSunMar 13, 2020In my old job I worked from home 100% of the time and was nude most of the time depending on temperature, errands, etc. Now I have my own business and recently started working from home much of the time once again so I get to keep the clothes off much of the time. Best way to work.
On a side note I know students that are being sent home from colleges as they try to move instruction to online formats. One student I know is working toward an entertainment/acting degree and is taking acting classes. They not only are having classes supposedly moved to online but being kicked out of dorms as well. Not fun.. I have to wonder, how do you hold online acting and drama type classes?

While not a class, I am in 3 community bands and two of them have suspended rehearsals. One has asked us to practice at home, while it will be better than nothing, it is not the same as playing as a group. The other has music storage at the rehearsal site, which is completely closed, so we can't even get our music to practice unless someone happened to take it home at the last rehearsal. When I practice at home, I am usually nude so that will be the case for now.ReactReply - CY
CoR YYCMar 13, 2020Having always worked from home, this is pretty normal for me. What is interesting is the number of friends who are newly in a similar situation (due to Covid19 self-isolation) seeking advice about working nude at home. A much greater number of people work this way than is likely imagined.

GaryMar 20, 2020Yes. NY just closed all non-essential business, which mine is. So at home I've also gotten rid of all non-essential clothing (as usual!) I'm going to see how many 24/7s I can do!

JonMar 20, 2020It sucks that you're out of a job for now. Hopefully it's not too long. On the bright site it sounds like your taking advantage of every second of being clothes-free! Starting Wednesday I'm working from home. It feels a bit weird but I'm totally taking advantage of it. The only time since noon on Wednesday that I've been clothed is this morning for a video conference.

JimMar 21, 2020While many of us are able to work from home, we ought to give a "Bravo-Zulu" to those who don't have that choice--retailers, health care workers, restaurant employees who are doing pick-up/delivery, and even those who are charging our phones and powering our laptops and streaming our videos: The electric utilities and internet providers.
And remember when the Jews returned to Jerusalem, and rebuilt the walls and gates? It's noteworthy, that the name of the person who rebuilt and rehung the "dung gate" was also given: Malkijah. He repaired and rehung the dung gate. Let's remember our sanitation workers too. The trash collectors, the sewage workers. Their job, while not gloriously romantic, is no less vital than the virologist or epidemiologist.

Nudie TexanMar 22, 2020My challenge is to stay naked on the weeks I work from home. I live in a townhouse style appartment with 3 levels so this should be fun. My patio and balcony face toward a wooded area that nobody goes to so sometimes I will step out there naked and enjoy the cool breeze. I know it is illegal but I'd like to be brave enough to go out my front door naked and walk down to the mail boxes. They are not too far to walk to but far enough to get caught.
