I don't know any other time in my life where I'll be able t spend this much time with my family.
That has been the best part. I've been getting started at 7 almost every morning, not taking an hour for lunch, and getting done around 3 almost every afternoon. Been nice to shut the laptop at 3, and have the rest of the day to do stuff with the kids, as opposed to leaving the office at 5 and fighting traffic for 30-45 minutes to either get home or pick a kid up from practice.

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.
I agree with this. Absolutely don't want to work from home full time. But having 4 days at home and 3 days in the office would be pretty awesome and I'd wager that under normal conditions, I'd be as productive if not much more.

When was your last day in the office?

March 13th. In telemedicine so I was only going in to the office 3 days a week anyway to break up the monotony. Those three days in office make a huge difference though.

Pretty standard due to false negatives. Can't get tested again until 3 days after symptoms disappear, doctor will not write letter clearing me until 14 days after initial test.

March 17th. I've popped in twice but just for 3-4 hours. Working from home isn't awful. I honestly fee more productive.

I love working from home. I'm eating healthier, no brutal morning and afternoon commutes through BR traffic, I'm spending more time with my family, and I'm getting more done around the house because I'm not spending 30 minutes to an hour in depressing traffic every day. Basically I am at my desk within 10 minutes of waking up and I'm home as soon as I get off. It's been great and I hope we adopt a work from home policy at least 2-3 days a week
Me. All this is me. Quality of life just not having a monolithic block of time to work has gone up. Plus, if I want to make a full on baked ham dinner on a Wednesday, I can do that and still do a full day of work. A quality home life and productive work life need not be mutually exclusive things. Hell, being able to do chores that involve a lot of waiting around (like laundry) weaved into the middle of a work day is a huge quality of life improvement. Little things like that just make things so much better because it allows my down time to be DOWN time. I don't have to spend all my non-working hours doing chores that I couldn't do because I was commuting or sitting in an office 10 hours a day. Plus, my food and transportation costs have gone way down because I'm nto eating lunches out as much and I'm not driving as much, so it's got a real impact on cash flow. Hopefully, we can carry some of this forward.
I'd love to be able to go into the office a couple of days a week for meetings, face time with other coworkers, and do the things that make a company work. The other days, though, I'd love to still be able to just wake up, brush teeth, make a pot of coffee, and get straight to work.
March 13 was my last full day at the office. I went in a couple of times over the next week or so to get things for my home office that I needed but didn't realize I needed at first. It's hard to think it's already been a month.
