Do You Work In The Nude?

Yesterday I read this article (via BoingBoing) which stated that their survey said a surprising 12% of men and 7% of women work in the nude when they 'telecommute', or work from home. Now, I have worked from home on a rare occasion or two, and I have either worn a dressing gown/slippers combo, or sweatpants and t-shirt (aka 'sweats'), which 39% of respondants admitted to wearing while working.

Other stats included:

44% of women shower on work-at-home days, as opposed to 30% of men (the filthy scumbags).

21% admitted to taking an afternoon nap (not a 'power sleep'?).

45% listen to music and 28% watch tv (music ok imho, tv bad).

18% of men and 38% of women found their attention 'claimed by chores' (hmmm... what does this say about... err... I'll stop there).

All fascinating statistics, but I'd like, if I may, to come back to the working in the nude one. Has anyone of the approximately 10 readers of this blog ever worked in the nude when telecommuting? I don't think I'd feel comfortable taking a work call from someone I didn't know or possibly even sending an important email while my schlong was hanging out for all to see (all as in 'nobody', but you get what I mean). Am I weird for feeling uncomfortable about working in the buff?

(note: I have no qualms about blogging in the nip)

No, but blogging naked, that's just twisted. Pervert.

I'd work or blog naked, but I have a webcam ...

That's no excuse. Just think how many hits you'd get if you did blog naked. That's right... A whole lot less than you get now. :-)
