I think work from home should be the norm and people who oppose it are just your managers who don't want to be obsolete, but I worked from home for 4 years from 2008-2012, before it was more common, and I basically drove myself crazy with loneliness and feeling out of the loop. This was partially due to bad circumstances personally, but after a few months of just your pyjamas you start to feel really sloppy and desperate.

I should add this was long before Zoom or any video meetings so that didn't help.

Not to mention being in the thick of office politics.

Only done about 8 days in the office in my life as I didn't work in an office role until after the lockdowns started. Not in any rush to do any more tbh, the commute is expensive and takes ages just to get less work done than I would at home and I can't even do anything interesting in my unpaid lunch break as I am still at the office.

At least in my last non office role lunch break was paid time still so I usually just took as long as it took to eat something and then got back on with what ever I was doing. Although there was also more job satisfaction there as customers were normal people rather than faceless corporations.

If I could do this minus the working part, that would be greeeeaaaaat

Apparently someone is offended that I am coerced into providing my labor rather than doing so freely, and that I would rather just have that time to myself to do with as I please

yes...? of course there are downsides

Presenting yourself as an antisocial it's the perfect recipe for being able to provide for yourself.

I mean who wouldn't want to BE around, be attended by and work in sensitive, multiple people and teams dependent, expensive projects that provide services and goods to OTHER HUMAN BEINGS with someone that publicly states to be a misanthrope and who derives JOY from actively NOT being around others

SERIOUSLY, what's not to like?
