I sit on the sofa and take my shoes off, take out my phone and send a message to a friend that I'm home, go inside the bedroom and change into comfortable clothes while plugging my laptop then sit in a corner with my laptop. It's fun having flatmates because there's someone who'll open the gate to the apartment, unlocks the front door, cooks dinner, etc. But in rare cases when I'm left alone, the whole routine changes drastically In case it sounds as if I'm not doing my part in our apartment, my "job" comes after dinner
