On my current team, we would all WFH on Thursdays and Fridays as a norm. At the beginning of the month, we were told that we should WFH indefinitely because of COVID-19.
I've got a great office setup and am used to working from home, sometimes for a week or two at a time, depending on circumstances, but WFH during COVID-19 feels like something else entirely.
I don't even have kids to take care of, but some combination of 1) having my wife home during the day, 2) the feeling of being cooped up (even though I get outside time walking my dog in my suburban neighborhood), and 3) the foreboding feeling of existential dread taking a toll on my mental health has cut my productivity in half.

- TLightful 7y agoI hear that and agree. I'm all for remote-working but had to make some adjustments also in the current situation. Being able to close the door when you need to focus really, really helps. A lot like having an office in the old days. Having a defined working space and being able to shut it off when needed.
