Working from home is going to kill us

Key physical health metrics have notably worsened since before the COVID-19 pandemic, including obesity, diabetes and eating habits. The percentage of U.S. adults whom Gallup classifies as obese has reached an estimated 38.4%, up 6.0 percentage points since 2019 and just shy of the record high of 39.9% measured in 2022. A new high of 13.6% of respondents say they have been diagnosed by a medical professional with diabetes, up 1.1 points since 2019.
Much more detail in the LINK but suffice it to say we are on the timeline where Wall-E and Idiocracy converge.

This shite will sort itself out. No need to concern myself.

Obesity will kill the fatties. Survival of the fittest.

whats the flip side of that - people that work from home have access to junk food around the house - or they work from the office and eat fast food each day?
working from home is not the reason - people making poor choices about their eating habits and such is the issue.
that is another way or pushing off personal accountability and placing it on something that has no fault.
but hey, congrats on pushing a false narrative.

Or, and hear me out, people need to be accountable for there own health and decisions.
Working from home isn’t the problem. Our societies shitty culture is.

Look how many people eat out multiple times as their main source for food instead of cooking at home, fast food budgets over $200 just for themselves, nevermind spouse and kids. There's your key indicator. I live in a freakin semi and **may** eat in a restaurant once per week, very very rarely is it fast food.

Sounds more like stress and lack of self-control is going to kill us and not work location.

Working from home allows me to get more exercise than if I was stuck in the office.
Stop shifting blame from the fatties.

Started WFH before Covid
I eat much less crap at home than I did when I was rushed to get errands & something to eat in an hour
Also much more active, instead of sitting behind a desk 8 hours when I’m not busy I’m up doing stuff around the house & yard

WFH, door dash and fast food has created a world where people barely have to move around, much less exercise

It turned me into a functioning alcoholic.

but that is a personal choice by the individual - not a WFH issue

100% of all retirees who stop working die.

Stupid people are going to kill themselves with terrible decision making, more at 10.
I've been working from home for 12 years now and I haven't died yet (I'm also somehow not obese )

Apparently working from home is killing people's sense of humor as well.

Most obese people are also unemployed

I’m probably healthier than I’ve ever been WFH part of the week because I have more time to eat/cook at home and time to actually workout versus my previous lengthy commute/longer hours.
It’s what you make of it.

You know what else you can do at home?
Exercise.
