Oh no, a PSE power outage!
PSE estimates a possible restoration of power in 2-3 hours. The three UPS units (uninterrupted power supplies) have around 30 minutes of power, then the modems will go off-line and Wi-Fi goes down. There is no back up power for the Pavilion, but there is a Plan B for OfficeXpats.
Even remote-only teams need in-person touchpoints
With easy access to the Bainbridge – Seattle ferry and proximity to many of the good eats and drinks the island has to offer, OfficeXpats is a great place to host a team retreat. In early 2024 we hosted the Tor Project, and the more we learned about this group the more we were interested in getting the full story. The team generously answered a list of questions, and many of the remote work elements are familiar to us all by now. What is interesting is the goal for the retreat and the value the team places of being in person from time to time.

A Writer Needs a Community
Every aspiring writer and author needs a writers community for support, for comradery, for accountability to keep writing. Never give up, never surrender. Since the early days of OfficeXpats, not only have local business people found a supportive coworking community, but quite a number of artists and authors have also found a congenial place to be artful and writerly, whether casually or goal-focused.
