Hi, Mary! Nika is [speaking|telling|talking]. I'm calling to tell you about the photos I've found for our project on professions. I've just [sent|send|sended]them to you via email.

The first photo [shows|writes|seems]a woman working alone in front of her computer, perhaps, online while the second picture depicts a man surrounded by his colleagues in the office. [And|Both|But]pictures are suitable for our project, as they show people in similar circumstances—they are both working, but the places where they work are different—the woman works from home, the man is in the office.

[Obviously|Continuously|Personally], the woman in the first picture is feeling comfortable in her home office while the man in the second picture [are|is|isn't]enjoying privacy, as he is not alone. Secondly, the woman can feel relaxed, as nobody is watching her [after|while|before]the man in the second picture is focused on his work and might feel stressed. So, the impression is [formed|framed|done]that the woman in the first picture feels more comfortable working from home.

[Though|Naturally|Needlessly], both ways of working shown in the pictures have their advantages and disadvantages. For example, working remotely from home is usually [more easy|convenient|bad]than working in the office because it does not require additional expenses that people spend when they get to work. [It seems to me|However|When], working in the office creates a special atmosphere between people and helps them achieve goals together. [As for|As soon as|Apart]home office, the person can adjust his schedule to his own needs and find time to relax anytime he wants. Yet, working from the office gives a chance to socialise with colleagues and make friends with them [while|as|because]at home a person listens only to his thoughts and ideas.

As for me, I would [prefer|like|want]using working from home because it makes our life easier and allows us not to think about the troubles that can arise while commuting to work. [Experts say|Although|Besides], a flexible schedule can help me maintain work-life balance and, as a result, feel better.[To start with|Well|Thirdly], that's all I wanted to tell you. Please, look at the photos and [take|answer|give]me your opinion on them. Bye!
