So all of this working life I always go to my office for work because at home I always found myself distracted about bunch of stuffs. I prefer to be in the office even though my companies always flexible in working remotely.
It is not until this pandemic that I was forced to work from home that I realized that I am the happiest I've ever been in years. I always felt tired daily when I used to go to office and also go to bunch of other social gatherings that I have. It turns out that I am definitely an introvert to the bone. Not only not meeting people everyday face to face has been beneficial to me, but cutting slack, social media, text, etc has been tremendously great for me. I also don't watch TV. Basically less human interaction in general (not zero at all mind you, I'm not anti social). Now I have more time to cultivate my various hobbies (which I've always been doing anyway) and become self absorbed lol.
I enjoy life better now, everyday feel fresh and energized and as a result my productivity with my work also shoot through the roof. I didn't know why I always thought I'd be distracted at home. All the simple things in life like running outside, walking outside, queueing for some snacks, just become delightful all of a sudden. Not to mention the great air quality.
I know it is bad for me to say this, but this pandemic I've been the happiest in years. I hope this pandemic is over soon but I don't hope to be back in office soon.
- the_af 6y agoDo you have kids of toddler-age or younger and a spouse who also works during standard office hours? I find that makes the difference between "WFH works" and "WFH is hell on earth". I have a 9-month old baby who is just starting to crawl all over the place and gets noisy and impatient when we don't pay attention to her. My wife and I work during office hours. Nursery is of course out of the question due to the lockdown and babysitters are illegal (because of the quarantine). Our stress levels are going through the roof. I want to go back to normality ASAP. Give me back my office, please!
- christiansakai 6y agoThankfully I currently don't. I'm sure it's gonna be zoo and hell on earth when I have one lol. My wife will most likely won't gonna be working when we have one.
