5 Arguments for Popularizing Office Living | The Office Hobo ™ People often ask me about my office-living experience. Usually they ask the same questions–where I sleep, where I shower, where I keep my stuff. The reaction is usually a mix or awe and excitement, but rarely one of application to their own lives. This is understandable, as living in one’s office is a fringe lifestyle. And due to the general attitude about what should or shouldn’t be a home, that makes sense.
