Honest question, there's a lot of posts here about people finding the office distracting, but does anyone else think working from home can be equally or more distracting? I honestly used to feel bad when in the office if I was on Youtube or Instagram, I just didn't really do it. But when WFH I could have unlimited access to anything without people knowing, even porn if I wanted. I also remember the feeling of having others around me working pretty hard and kind of fed off that, like I wanted to be part of a team who was delivering and while I still have that feeling, I feel less guilty if I slack off when remote and I notice the whole team going through waves of slacking off, and then someone pulls the team back together to be motivated. I have strategies to get myself into working and I can be productive, I'd argue I often am productive because I care a lot about where I work and what I work on, but it's not just "magic" that I'm just sitting in my room at home and all of a sudden I'm ultra productive? I really have to work at it, especially if I'm not working on something exciting. People also come distract me, neighbors ,friends, family even delivery people etc. Slack and email are for me, huge productivity killers and distractions and still are if remote or on-site. So that distraction has never gone away for me. I think being a productive remote worker is a skill that I'm still learning and an investment I have to make, my own office renovations, furniture etc, and I've been doing it since before the pandemic. I hate to say it, but I think most people know deep down inside and are admittedly defending WFH as by default being better from a productivity standpoint when really, it's probably just better on a personal level and so they want to keep it. I think that's fine because I agree, if I had the choice, I'd be remote too, forever. I'm just not really sure people are being entirely honest with themselves and their motives and it would be refreshing to see a bit more of that honesty shine through without the constant, "I'm just more productive at home by default, I work 10x harder and more hours etc". It would be nice to live in a world where employees and employers just said, "You know what, who cares about the productivity aspect so much, let's just embrace the technology we create to make our lives better and embrace working from home even if we actually do take a 10% productivity loss", it's wishful thinking but it would be nice :)
