re: Benefits of work from home

No commute = time and gas savings
Sleep in later
Wear whatever I want
Out of a cubicle
Less meetings
Don’t have to be around douches in the office
On lunch break I cut the grass and do things I’d normally do on the weekend
Quick access to my kitchen
No more battle shits in the bathroom, peaceful dumps without someone blowing it up next to me
Take a quick nap if I want
And best of all since my wife is working from home, get a blowie on the clock.

I have a savage tan.

Shaved yesterday for the first time since March 18th.

I sure would not mind skipping my hour long commute each day.

Being able to get what I need to get done in like 3 hours then having the rest of the day to do what I want instead of just staying at the office

I just muted that shite.
Really would have sucked to sit through that nonsense.

It must be nice for you nonessentials to stay at home. Lots of bonding opportunities with your wife’s son

Afternoon delight with the wife working from home.

I hate it

I did two weeks at home from the beach house
It was okay but in my industry you need the team all around
I also miss the frat house atmosphere of the floor
The only plus is I can wear shorts and a t shirt

All-day Irish coffees?

I have realized how much work dominated my life. Not sure I can go back to normal.
Posted on 7/14/20 at 10:11 am to Privateer 2007
I can’t think of any

Watching the squirrels use the top of the picket fence as a highway from one end of the yard to the other. The tops of the pickets are 3/4 in squares and they never miss a post. Also seeing a snake getting an unaware lizard

My wife has been working from home and has had the most productive 3 months of her career. She loves it because of reasons other guys have already mentioned...no commute, no distractions, sleep later, etc.
Their company has already released a policy that she can work from home indefinitely.

Taking a nasty smelly Mexican food shite without bob walking in and smelling my filth.

I'm still working from the office, but we have moved a lot of meetings online, which is great because I can mute and multitask through the things that don't concern me.
I feel like even that small change has increased productivity.

Because we moved cities but I stayed with my job, I've been working remote full-time since last November. I felt like a black sheep as I was the only one in my company, but that's obviously changed.
Leadership has acknowledged that upon "return to normal", most employees will opt for some mix: spend a couple of days in the office, the rest WFH.
The benefits I've noticed:
- I can get routine chores done during the day (laundry, etc.) that would otherwise occupy my free time after work and on the weekends
- I can actually go to the gym in the morning or during lunch without having to rush to shower and get in a car to get to the office
- I've gained back, minimally, three hours to each of my days. I would spend 20-30 minutes commuting each way in the morning/evening. And then when in the office, would lose AT LEAST 1-2 hours with worthless distractions. So instead of having to get up at 6:45 to shower, eat, drive to the office and not get home until after 6, I'm now waking up at 7:30, online by 8 and usually done most days with my work by 3 or 4.
Unless push really comes to shove, I have no intent of ever taking another job that will require me to spend the majority of time in an office setting. I can handle a couple of days per week just to break up the monotony. But I think COVID has really shown most people how completely ridiculous the notion of "arse in seat" really is.

Hangovers are much easier to deal with.
