“Work from anywhere,” they said.

But no one warned you about trying to build an empire from a hotel nightstand, with 6 inches of elbow room and 13 inches of screen real estate.

Remote work isn’t about being light.

It’s about being lethal.

What tradeoffs have you made to keep your setup tight and your output sharp?
