Researchers Show The Future Side Effects For Those Working From Home

The rise of remote work has undoubtedly been a game-changer for many people, offering flexibility and convenience like never before. However, a shocking 3D model called Anna has revealed the potential damage that this work arrangement could do to our bodies. Developed by office furniture company Furniture@Work, Anna showcases the physical toll that consistent use of technology and poor posture can take on remote workers. With a hunched back, bleary red eyes, and claw-like hands, Anna depicts a future where remote workers in 2100 may suffer from poor posture, eye strain, and even text claw from excessive typing.
Researchers warn that if remote work continues without proper precautions, it could lead to the devolution in humans. Poor posture is a common issue among remote workers due to the lack of ergonomic setups and prolonged sitting. This can result in back pain, neck pain, and even spinal misalignment. Eye strain is another concern, as staring at screens for long periods can cause dryness, redness, and blurred vision. The 20-20-20 rule, which suggests looking at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes, is recommended to alleviate eye strain.
In addition to physical ailments, remote work can also contribute to weight gain. The convenience of working from home often means easy access to snacks and a sedentary lifestyle. Without the need to commute or move around an office space, physical activity levels may decrease significantly. Combined with the potential for unhealthy eating habits, this can lead to weight gain and other related health issues.

I have absolutely gained weight. WFH has not been good for us as a society.

Now hold on hold on guys.
There may be something to this.
Think back to the old days when women were just house wives. They were the OG WFH group. And when I was a kid all of our moms were housewives, and they all kinda looked like this.
Still holding the baby weight, hair a mess because they didn't give a shite, no makeup, smoking a Pall Mall, early wrinkles and saggy titties.

How is working from home different from sitting in a office all day?

TLDR: We can't sell office furniture at a profit to people who WFH

To mitigate the potential damage caused by remote work, it’s crucial for individuals and companies to prioritize ergonomics and well-being. Investing in ergonomic furniture, such as adjustable desks and supportive chairs, can help improve posture and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal issues.

I was able to get in the best shape of my adult life when I WFH for 9 months during COVID

This is stupid - I got in immaculate shape after working from home
It’s called going to the gym, not eating stupid, walking, and working out

If people get everything they claim to want, they destroy themselves.
Humans still need structure of some type and daily human interaction.

Stupid shite! As if people will be using keypads in 10 years, much less in 2100.

Literally nothing different than working in an office

So just do this at home

Same is true at nearly every office I have ever worked in. And when it wasn’t, I brought snacks.

Need to commute means the need to sit on your arse in a car for 2-3 hours a day. Talk about sedentary. How about during those 2-3 hours you have back you go to the gym or for a walk?
This fear of WFH is total bullshite. The Only problem, and it’s admittedly big, is antisocialization and that can be combated by going to lunch with friends in your area.

Without the need to commute or move around an office space
