I’ll bite :) If you look at my productive hours for the month, I would say I’m pretty close to 1:1 hours at home vs. hours in an office. If you look at my hours on a day by day basis? Definitely give less of my hours to my employer than I did when I was in an office. When I was in an office and I got stuck, I just sat there. I could (and would) half-heartedly work on other things while inspiration tried to strike. But a lot of time, I was just sitting there scribbling on paper trying to be think of solutions to try out. Since I’ve been WFH (2 and a half years now) if I get stuck, I’ll scribble like before. But I put a time limit on my scribbling. If after 20 minutes I’m not making progress, I’ll go do something - laundry, dust, pull weeds, walk the dog, etc. Sometimes it only takes 10 minutes of not actively thinking to come up with a solution. Other times it might be 2 or 3 hours. On the other end of the spectrum, there are days where I’ll put in 12 or more hours actively writing code because I’m truly inspired and excited about the solution. When I was in an office, I had hard cut offs because of buses. If I missed my express bus (37 minute commute), I had a 3 bus transfer to get home (2 hour 37 minute commute - yes. I could have done an Uber/Lyft. But didn’t want to pay $40+ for a ride). So I had an alarm set. When that alarm went off, I’d leave regardless of where I was in solving a problem. So yes. day to day - I “give” less time to my employer. But for the month and actual output, I’m about the same. N=1 :)
