[Personal] Working at JustCo Coworking and Office Space at The Metropolis

 As I'm staying in the West region, I face a long travelling time to my workplace as my offices has always been quite far away from home. Recently, I came across JustCo coworking and office space that has over 20 locations across Singapore, with most of them situated in prime areas. I opted for the Metropolis Tower 1 location, which is conveniently accessible via Buona Vista MRT Exit D, making my daily commute much more efficient, saving about 20 minutes at least in travelling time.  


Day 1 - 29 April 2024


It's a Monday and I will only be staying here for half a day so I picked this workspace and I had the whole table and seat to myself. Didn't explore the area much as I was busy with work but I'm loving this space which is close to the window. 

Day 2 - 30 April 2024
 

Checking out the various food options at The Metropolis. 


Glad to be back. 


Yet to explore the second floor. 


I picked this big open concept table as my workspace. Came with lots of charging points and USB ports for charging. I actually forgot to bring my phone cable, luckily the staff at the counter is able to lend me one. Appreciate that staff are generally pretty helpful here. 


Snacks, Tiong Hoe Coffee and tea from Clipper Tea are replenished throughout the day at the pantry area. 


Mugs are available for use so I do not need to bring or wash my own. 


Meryl was my lunch buddy as her office is at Tower 2. We walked to Star Vista and had Pontian Wanton Mee and since it was the National Bubble Tea Day, Liho was having a 1-for-1 promotion. Great to share this deal with Meryl. I also bought some bread for breakfast from Four Leaves. Lunch time well spent. 

Day 3 - 2 May 2024


Had McDonald downstairs for breakfast with hubby. 


Explored the second level today. 


 Beside hot desks and common work area, there are also several meeting rooms for use depending on your membership subscription plan.


Back to my favourite working spot. Somehow, I prefer this spot that is near to the pantry area more. Get reminded to hydrate and drink more water. 


Almost lunch time so I went downstairs to the sitting area. 


I had a $10 voucher expiring soon, so we went to Otter Pizza at The Rochester Mall to have our lunch. Food was yummy and there was no other customers around during the time we visited so we sort of have the whole place to ourselves. 


Starbucks to cool ourselves down from the super hot weather.


Helped myself to the snacks and tea during tea-break time. 


For my job, I can basically work anywhere as long as there's a laptop and WIFI. One main advantage is the prime locations making it easier for me to pick my girl too as this location is just 5 bus stops away from my girl's school. The workspace also offers modern and spacious facilities with free flow of beverages and snacks. Do note printing is chargeable but scanning is complimentary. 

The one biggest disadvantage is that I had to bring my laptop around everywhere. If I'm heading to the office, I do not need to bring my laptop along since the office laptop is locked in the drawer.
