WFH is effectively work from anywhere. I can take a month long working vacation and save a vacation day by working on the airplane.
I'd be very annoyed if my work chained me to my home desk.

- Aurornis 3y ago> WFH is effectively work from anywhere. Great if your company allows it, but the “working vacation” thing has been either discourage or disallowed at every remote job I’ve had due to past abuse. Some jobs can handle truly asynchronous work and some people can be responsible about getting their work done away from home, but for every 1 employee who was pulling it off well we had 3-5 more who were just writing short responses in Slack and to emails to pretend they weren’t actually on vacation. Ruined it quickly for everyone. Lately I try to look for jobs at smaller companies where everyone can be trusted and there isn’t room for people to get away with those games. Seems much more likely to find more WFH freedom in those environments.
