PSA: The guy at the Chiang Mai co-working space who said 'your life is just a vacation'

He said it after I told him I'd been working from there for eight months. Has anyone else had to explain this isn't a permanent holiday?

Keeping regular hours" is the key part people miss. They see the location but not the routine, which is what actually defines a job versus a trip. How do you even start that talk without sounding defensive?

I just say my work is the same, the desk just has a better view. I had to explain I keep regular hours and still deal with deadlines. It shuts down the vacation talk pretty fast.
