As WFH/Hybrid work has become more common, engineer workspaces are changing. Should professional engineers have test equipment at home? Take the poll and let us know, and if you have a lab at home, please tell us about it!

My reply is complicated.
I work for myself so my work lab is my own. It's in a factory unit 14 miles from home ( a bit far, 2 miles would be ideal).
If I want to do my own stuff I can, but I don't want to take work home. It's good to keep them seperate. I don't see work emails at home (don't route them to my phone at all).
It would be very expensive for companies to duplicate a good lab environment at every engineer's home.
The main thing I miss about working on my own is the opportunity to bounce ideas or problems off other people, thats probably why I support E14.

Those rubber ducks really get around...

Dropping around 28,000 of them into the Pacific Ocean in 1992 probably didn't help
