Mid 20's, first job was a small office, it was ok. Second job was in a cube farm, hated it. Current job is working remote, see my regional team once/twice a month. Been in this position for 1.5 years now and I'm ready for office life back, maybe that's just because i miss the social aspect, but i also get frustrated sometimes with not being able to get facetime with people. Would be nice to just grab lunch or hang out with people in different departments and see what they're working on.
- ilaksh 7y agoWhy can't you just message the people in other departments and ask them to Facetime you?
- lostjohnny 7y agoexchanging ideas in person works better. after working home for 3 years, I missed being out of my house, even though I am not the most social person you'll find at my office. I think the balance is some remote, when you fill it, and the rest in a real office, with real people. secondly, go live close to the job, the closest possible. it takes me 15 minutes now from door to door and it made my life much better.
