In Chinese society, most people don’t have thoughts to keep the boundary. Concentrate your energy to work. When you are in the traditional company, when you talk to your colleagues, your boss will ask you to stop talking with colleagues. I think she is very good at the skills of working at home. I think when we want to rise our efficiency at work, we can use her skills. But i don’t know the Chinese society can do that. Some boss, they don’t want to break their rule at work.

The lady shared her opinion about how to work at home and highlighted some skills.
