Tbh, if you only work half of the time while at home, you're probably not working much more while you're at work. You probably spend more time pretending to work while at work, but I'd be amazed if the net productivity is any different. That, at least to me, seems to be the big elephant in the room that no-one wants to address. Office workers are not productive 100% of the time, every single minute at work. I've worked manual labor where we actually worked every single minute, sans 15 minute breaks every 3 hours, but never in an office setting. Even white-collar workers that are putting in 80 hour weeks are spending a good time of that just waiting, pretending to work, and just doing otherwise "unproductive" things. A lot of employers simply want their "moneys worth" of your time. They'd rather you be unproductive at work than home.
