I’ve never had a WFH job and I generally don’t think I’d personally want/be successful with one. My sister is fully remote and she actually hates it, but I think its more the job she doesn’t like than the WFH aspect. She says its lonely and isolating on top of disliking her daily tasks. I’m not anti WFH for others at all, to absolutely clear.


I never really hated my job or anything, and before COVID we even had an option to work from home one day a week, but I never bothered with it. But when I went to working from home full time, my quality of life improved significantly. Just driving to work used to be the most stressful part of my day, and eliminating that makes me so much happier. Not having to constantly “look busy” is also huge. As long as I get my work done my boss is happy. I also used to have bad neck and back pain which went away when I started work from home. Even though we have supposedly “ergonomic” setups at work, I guess something about it wasn’t working for my body. I love working from home so much now that I would more readily accept a pay cut than to have to go back to the office.
