re: Researchers Show The Future Side Effects For Those Working From Home

To me this is a classic case of curing a symptom and not the disease.

Last summer I was able to work from home 3 days a week and I lost 20lbs. because I was able have more time to exercise, spend my with family, etc. In December, when my workload doubled and they took us down to 2 days a week at home (in many weeks I get 1 day), my time for the gym lessened so I stopped going. My stress levels went up and thus so did my weight.

The real issue in many corporate entities is that they overwork, under pay their employees.

My boss still has times where I'm told to "keep people busy" versus letting them do their job as efficiently and effectively as possible. If they finish in 6 hours, who cares? The job got done.
