You are pitching being able to do laundry, dishes, clean, etc. as a perk. I feel like it’s a negative as part of my mental space is occupied by household chores as well. Blending errands and cleaning with meetings and focused work is a pain now. It feels like I’m doing an insane multitasking balancing act most days.

- sidlls 5y agoIn the evenings and on weekends.
- azemetre 5y agoWouldn't you rather keep evenings/weekends free of chores and do some of them during the work week? That's what I prefer and do at least.
- brewdad 5y agoSo keep doing them on weekends or evenings if that works best for you. WFH gives you the option of doing them at other times if that meets your needs better.

- nickstinemates 5y agoI read it as pitching flexibility in your schedule as a perk. The details are the details (and vary from person to person)
- hrktb 5y agoThis as much as you want to do it though. I share OP's view point, but will also let those house keeping tasks rote away for a while if I'm not in the mood too. They'll still need to be done at some point, but now we have more choice on when we want to do it, and not just between 8PM and 8 AM or only on weekends, as it was the case before.
