- codezero 6y agoI'm drinking less, but you do make a good point. I think the other vices I've picked up are still better than the amount of time I spent commuting and doing nothing productive.
- jcun4128 6y agoOne week my sleep pattern flipped so I was working at night/sleeping after scrum. Back to normal now but starting to shift forward again.
- DoofusOfDeath 6y agoSame for me, although I've been remote for years. Nothing kept my sleep schedule on track like needing to be at the office by 9 a.m. almost every weekday. Also, remote teams seem more likely to span multiple timezones. That doesn't help the ole' bedtime either.
- jcun4128 6y agoHaha, have to put "away" on your status at night. Yeah I see general threads get pinged from another country "I'm not here".
- acituan 6y agoSorry to hear that. Could it be related to pandemic closing down places you usually go, people you see etc?
- Zach_the_Lizard 6y agoFor me, as an NYC resident, my apartment is small, most of my friends have left the city, none of my usual hangouts are open, and life is utterly monotonous. My wife was laid off and was in a field annihilated by the pandemic. Every day is the same. Worse, we've already had the damn disease, and it was utterly mild if it's the one I'm thinking of (testing was hard to get when I got sick so we took antibody tests later). So I'm having the joy sucked out of my life to protect me from catching a disease I already caught.
- paulryanrogers 6y agoYour sacrifice is appreciated by those with weaker immune systems and those who would otherwise risk permanent organ damage. It is a very infectious disease, so the mitigations are very serious.
- davidw 6y agoMe too, but it's the stress from the virus and deteriorating political situation in the US, rather than working from home.
