But of course, we’re especially happy that a lot of the piece is about us. Thanks especially to Nomad #1 Chris Haddad who summed up perfectly our raison d’etre for writer Matthew Amster-Burton:

“I’ve been self-employed for four years now,” Haddad said. “It’s a lot of fun, I like doing it, but the walls close in really fast. There were several times where I realized I hadn’t put on pants or left the house in 30 hours.”

“When I was first here, it was like, wow! It’s all the good things about having an office, which are coworkers, a separate place to go, more space,” Haddad said. “But there’s nobody standing over your shoulder making sure you’re not checking personal e-mail.”

The piece goes on from there with quotes from Nomad/Office Manager Erik Von Blon and a story from Susan about a day when we all went off on a late-afternoon tangent about Britney Spears (don’t ask).

Of course, Susan gave some more serious reasons for working at Office Nomads, including the article’s closing quote

When I ask Evans how to connect to the network printer, she hands me a USB drive and quips, “You can’t bring a printer to a coffeehouse.”

What a great way to start out 2008!
