  No one’s stopping you. It’s only a problem when this is forced on people. Some of us don’t need to go to work to do all of those things.

    Yeah I know that each one has their own. I’d hate to go to work sitting in a traffic jam for example

  I wake up every morning, shower, shave, trim my beard, put on clean clothes… I look good. Then I park my ass in my home office. I don’t feel right starting my day in pyjamas, never have… even on weekends.

    I think it depends a lot on a person’s personality.

    Myself I find it much harder to have the discipline to do that when working from home, plus it’s far easier to get distracted at home, so I chose to work from a coworking space which is about 15m walk from home.

    Also, from the Covid days I found out I that for my own sanity I need to go out if only to be outside four walls, which I get to do regularly with my current setup.

    So as I see it you’re both right and as somebody else says, it’s only a problem when this forced on people.

  I’m more productive at the office than at home.

  And that’s ok, you do you. I prefer to work from home but that’s my personal choice and i don’t push it onto others.

  The thing is, no one is telling you No! You should work from home!
  Yet a lot of management are telling workers No! You should work at the office!

  When you work at the office you need to dress up, take proper care of yourself, walk around and step by a cafe.

  I don’t think I’ve ever had a job that paid well enough for me to do any of that tho

  Same for me, having to go outside, touch some grass and get some vitamine D on the way to work makes wonders both for my mental health and for my productivity.

  I bet 80% of people who always cry about this commutes by car into an office in an office park in the middle of nowhere.

    It’s that the complaints come out on Lemmy, or on Reddit, or elsewhere that’s extremely online.

    I found lockdown quite enjoyable. My partner had grinding depression due to not having the stimulation and connection and support of being physically present with people, including at work.

    That experience is common, but not amongst the vocal online lot!

    It was that or work at a gas station for 1/3 the pay. I’m just asking for a choice.
