"Where is so and so", had to leave to get little Johnny to tee ball practice.
Do people not eat or take kids to tee ball practice if they work from home?

People typically do not go anywhere to eat lunch while WFH. I eat at my desk daily. When in the office, people often go in groups and grab lunch which will take up at least an hour of the day.
Yes, if I need to get my daughter to practice at 5:30. I can WFH, and work a full day to get her there on time. If I'm at the office, I would be leaving at 4 to get her there on time. Commutes, traffic, etc.
I agree that WFH changed how we work, if you have the right employees it is for the better. Companies got used to high productivity and higher availability, then wanted butts in the seats and the same productivity and availability. Doesn't work that way.

Yes, and I often come back home, get the kids situated and get back to work.
BoogaBear said it perfectly, it’s not just productivity at any point in time, it’s productivity and availability and I have like 30% more availability in the average day because I don’t spend two hours a day in traffic, or an hour out getting lunch every day.
But again, it all comes down to the employee, are you someone who can create your own structure or do you need office culture to do that. If you can, you and your employer are better off.
