6. Do not work on week offs

Most of the remote employees tend to work on week offs. This is not right!!

Darling, you have a life. You don’t get paid for your week offs.

Do not overwork with the hope that you’ll be noticed by the company and earn that accolade of the most dedicated employee.

Also, you have to learn how to keep your work/business and personal hours separate. If you can master this art, then you’re this close to becoming the happiest working professional.
