The Red Bag Rule



To separate work and family, I had a rule when I started working from home – no home phone number and no home address, so no strangers at the front door.  But this leads to a bit of a problem when people want to meet you and you don’t know them and they don’t know you.  My office for meetings is Coffee Club and my line is “I’ll be the women with the red handbag” (very James Bond 007 isn’t it)!  At first I asked men to describe themselves so I would recognize them, but after the first two said “I am tall, dark and handsome” and they were not – I decided the Red Bag Rule was the only way to go!
