To me the home office wins out by a lot:
Small cubicle with no window near by is a common office situation. Lack of exposure to sun disrupts the circadian rhythm. Vs Sitting next to a window at home.
Many Office AC systems don't filter the air from pollutants adequately. Cheap office carpets tend to have all kinds of chemicals that off gas. No way to open a window to get fresh air. Vs the typical home office with a window to the side you can open anytime.
I was in an office where the secretaries farts would rise and accumulate in a dead zone at the second story stair well. No more smelling other peoples farts or getting their flue.
Sitting prolonged times in a chair, and not being to take a bathroom break for long times. Not only uncomfortable, also unhealthy. Vs a chair I pick, and a standing desk, and short breaks anytime I want.
Listening to music on headphones vs a radio playing in the background at home. Headphones damage hearing.

- dukeofdoom 5y agoThe one office where I worked, it was always locked and logged with an access card. So I never tended to use it as often. Vs now I can take a shower at home any time I want to.
- Hamuko 5y agoOne of the best things about working at home has been that I've never had to queue for the toilet.
- dukeofdoom 5y agoSome people have really nice toilets at home, that will wash their behind. Not many offices have ones that do that. So you end up sitting in your own excrement for 8 hours. The life style bump up from that, is worth it.
- majewsky 5y agoI'm very baffled by this comment, but too afraid to ask if you are aware of the existence of toilet paper.
- dukeofdoom 5y agoHave you tried a bidet toilet before? Toilet paper does not do as good of a job as water. Not even close.
- long_time_gone 5y agoSounds like you live alone, most people don't.
- swiley 5y agoMy cubical has too much sun. The way it was set up when I came the monitor is in line with the arc the sun follows in the early spring. Working from home I can just move my desk, I'm not sure what I'll do when I go back.
