Working from home has been great for me. I no longer have a 45 minute commute in both directions. I don’t have to pay for a train pass. I get to eat lunch with the only person with whom I want to eat lunch, my wife. I don’t have distracting conversations going on behind me. I can listen to relaxing music all day without having to wear headphones. I can now continue working on things during forced meetings because no one is able to see I don’t care about the conversation that before the pandemic clearly didn’t involve me but somehow required my presence. Overall, by working from my basement, I save time, money, and stress. I get more done now work-related than I did before the pandemic. I have time to take care of myself. I get to spend more time with my wife. The only thing that took a little getting used to was now I have to IM my boss to ask him to review something instead of turning to my right and saying out loud, “Can you please look at the deck and approve for release?” I don’t get instant feedback that my message was received, but, if I’m being honest, I really don’t care what happens after I have done my part.
