I just hope my employer continues to allow me to work remotely. I've been exceeding production for the past year working from home. Working from home I: - Don't have to share a keyboard/mouse/desk with another shift (gross) - Do not spend an hour a day(+/- 10 minutes) driving, and save all the money associated with that commute - Do not have to worry about driving on snowy/icy roads as my job requires us to be there unless there is a county emergency making travel by road illegal. - Do not have to go to work sick, because they act like you murdered 30 children if you call in sick. I can work comfortably while isolated from my coworkers - Do not have to fight 100-130 people for 1 of 3 microwaves on my 30 minute lunch break, assuming someone hasn't taken my food out of the refrigerator and eaten it/thrown it away/left it sitting out to make room for theirs - Do not have to use a restroom that, with frequency (to the point of multiple times over the years management threatening supervised restroom usage for adults), has boogers/urine/feces/blood on the floors/wall/toilet seats - Pack into a noisy open office where I can't focus as people are constantly talking, walking by, burning popcorn, microwaving ox tail and greens that smell worse than burnt popcorn - Deal with ear-damaging fire drills, cram into tiny offices with 20 co-workers for tornado drills/warnings - Deal with an HVAC system that regularly see temperatures in the mid 60s Fahrenheit in the winter and mid 80s Fahrenheit in the summer inside the office where business casual is required. - Drink milky-white water from the tap AFTER it comes out of a filter that has algae growing in the transparent tube feeding the faucet. - Deal with coworkers maliciously damaging vehicles. Just about everyone's car has multiple door dings, and if you try to park in the back of the parking lot we've had instances of an employee parking an inch or less off the driver side door - not in a parking spot - of someone's brand-spankin new car - Have to deal with random coworkers coming to my desk/cornering me at the urinal and blabbing incessantly about their divorce/kids/wife's boyfriend/vet bill, this was a regular occurrence in person and has happened exactly once via teams since work from home started. If they don't, I'll definitely be thinking about a "post-pandemic career shakeup" to walk away from my employer of 15 years to work for a company that is forward-thinking.
