With a flexible work schedule, no office, and a SO who works nights, I’ve definitely slipped into this and for me it has turned into a struggle, so I can appreciate the article. It’s just very difficult to make progress on other goals when everything is closed, and nobody responds to emails outside of normal working hours. I’m talking about people who you want to do work for you (doctors, home maintenance, financial-related services, and so on, which are numerous). I’ve also become much more easily irritated when interrupted, and have more difficulty multitasking. As I type, I’m trying to flip back to normal people hours, but that’s harder as I age, so far I’m waking up earlier but practically not sleeping. Perhaps unrelated and anecdoctal, but it seems post-covid, nobody gets anything done. It requires endless harassment to move things along, people don’t respond, or just don’t show up. You have to call at the precise right time.
