Factors affecting my WFH experience, using the factors from the article:
- Telecommunication environment: a quiet dedicated room.
- Requirements by rules and regulations that some tasks must be conducted in the office: N/A
- Types of work that cannot be completed at home: None
- Distractions from family: Not more than the distractions from people at the office (coffee walks, casual talk, loud conversations outside meeting rooms). I much rather be distracted by my family than some random dude asking about my weekend.
- Private room for work: check
- Loss of face to face communication: Yes, please.
- Lack of pressure from boss, colleagues and subordinates: N/A. I still have the same goals and the same deadlines.
- Interaction with customers: Over zoom.
- Other reasons: N/A
- wreath 6y ago> I much rather be distracted by my family than some random dude asking about my weekend. I never understood this actually. What is so bad/annoying about a colleague asking how was your weekend? When I hear similar things like "Football talk at the water cooler" etc I wonder what makes an individual hate their colleague this much that simple interactions like this become an annoyance.
- 29athrowaway 6y agoI never said anything about it being bad or annoying. They are just less relevant than spending more time with my family. I prefer taking a coffee break at home and talk to my kids rather than some random colleague at work that I will likely never see again in less than 3 years.
