Working from home has become the norm for many of us during this Covid-19 period. But for working mums, it can get stressful with the kids at home.
And while we would like to have a change in working environment sometimes, observing social and safe distancing measures is something we’d have to consider.
Public libraries used to be an option for working outside of the home, but it’s not viable now as visitors are limited to a 30-minute time slot in view of the current situation.
That said, Starbucks and co-working spaces are not the only places you can work from. Here are some alternative options you might want to check out.
Changi Lounge at Jewel now offers patrons access to its lounge at a special promotional rate of $12 for two hours.
For the price, you can enjoy high-speed internet at the lounge with ample charging and power points for devices. There will also be free drinks and snacks available.
Need to use the lounge for more than two hours? It’s $4 for every extra hour. And if you book a minimum of four hours, parking is free.
