Working from home since 2012 and completely agree..

That said it's definitely not for everyone. Our entire team works from home and we've had a number of people quit because working from home drove them crazy.

WTF is wrong with people who like going into the office every day? I like to think I'm pretty good at seeing things from perspectives other than my own, but I've met my match with you people.

March 16th, though I've had to make a few runs to the office since then to get some things. I've gone at night so I've been the only one there.

I don't particularly enjoy being at home all day. I get cabin fever. It also blurs the separation between work and home life. I would not want to work from home full time. I could do it 2 days per week or something like that.

Laid off March 12th been back home since the 13th. Pretty sure by the time this is over COVID will have taken my job, my marriage, and half my shite. Every day is like living in an active minefield, never know which step is going to end it all

Same here. I think my perfect scenario would be working from home on Mondays and Fridays, and going to the office Tuesday through Thursday, but with the flexibility to adapt as needed. I do feel more productive working from home, but I also waste a lot of time some days.

Depending on the industry, I’d be surprised if it wasn’t this way going forward with all of our technology that enables us to be productive

I could do that too.

I'm an introvert but the majority of my social interaction outside of my family is at work.

My job requires a decent amount of face to face collaboration, white boarding things out etc. You can do it remotely but I don't find it as productive.

Last day in an office was November 20, 2018 and I didn’t look back. Too many pluses working from home for me to ever go back to an office setting with 2 hours there and back traffic.

Sometime in 1996 when the company gave me my first laptop. I enjoy the flexibility to pretty much make my own schedule. I cannot see me ever going back to an 8-5 office job.

Worked from home March 3 until March 13 because the tornado in Nashville destroyed all three buildings at my companies complex.

March 16, I started in our new office and made it until that Friday the 20, and thats when someone in the office tested positive.

I’ve been working remote since 2017 and would not go back to an office environment for anything less than double my current income.

March 20th

The 1st week was an adjustment, but now that I'm settled in, I'm really, REALLy enjoying it.

I don't know any other time in my life where I'll be able t spend this much time with my family.

I'm trying to enjoy it as much as possible.
