Nah, I'm not going back to your stupid building to talk about sports in the break room while microwaving Tupperwared leftover chicken breast lol. Gas + commute time + increased likelihood to eat out (leftover chicken breast) = more money out of my pocket. And I could stretch even further with the endless banter, getting yelled at for not understanding things the first time (I'm not an auditory listener), disrespected for how I look, more reasons to waste money on therapy. Obviously that's personal, but you couldn't pay me more to go back to the cattle stall we call an office... I do miss wearing dress shirts and slacks while I eat your free pizza!

> commute Not only time but expense and accident risk, especially for an automobile commute.

  Agreed, a daily cross on the beltway isn't something that should be necessary so I can sit at a computer. This isn't 1965, I'm not working at Honeywell as some mainframe engineer.

Eating out is a net positive for me. I get better, more varied food and feel better if a professional does the cooking. It's not worth saving money on what I eat - it's so important for health.

  There is nothing healthy in eating out.

    That depends on where you go to eat, I think

    Sweetgreens, Cava, Mezeh, Chipotle Obviously don't get queso dip or soda, etc

  You'd be surprised how easy it is to make healthy, tasty food. Personally, if I made enough, I'd eat out all the time too.
