Work with me, with a real person on the other side

What “work with me” means here

Same idea as the videos: you sit down, someone else is working too, and the time goes by on both sides. The difference is that it is a call between two people, so the other person is not a recording and you are not watching alone.

It is for any kind of work done at a desk: emails, reports, a spreadsheet, code, writing, applications, admin. Nobody looks at your screen. You say your task at the start and how it went at the end.

Who uses it

• People working from home who miss having colleagues around.
• Freelancers who want a fixed start time for the day.
• Anyone with a task they keep putting off and want to start at a set minute.
• Students too: the same session works for study.

How it works here

1. Pick a time. A slot starts every quarter hour, day and night. Sessions last 25 or 50 minutes.
2. We try to match you. If someone picked the same time and length, we put you on a call together.
3. Say what you are working on. At the start each of you says it out loud, in one sentence. Then you work in silence. There is a chat if you need it.
4. Tell each other how it went. That is what the last two minutes are for. Then the session stays in your calendar and you can go.
