There are situations where being around family 24/7 is much better than working in an office. I've been the following type of jobs 1). Office job in a distributed team where I got along well with the people who were in the same office. Worked from home 1 day/week. 2). Office job where there were team members who were a drain on my sanity 3). Crammed Open Office 4). Work from home, first with a corner in the dining nook with my desk hidden behind a small divider. Later with a dedicated room. Always with a sit/stand desk and a keyboard/mouse/monitor connected to a laptop. I'd prefer 1 if I only had to go to work 2-3 days/week. I don't miss 2 or 3 at all and I'd much rather have my family interrupt me with something unrelated to work than colleagues who completely disrupt my work. Working from home can be lonely and sometimes demotivating, but it's a lot better than feeling completely drained from 2 or 3.
