The main problem with WFH is the lack of a change of scenery. It would drive me
bonkers. I guess you could always spend the day using the Wifi at Starbucks or the local library.
It’s also hard if you have family members who want your attention during work hours.
Pros and cons to everything I guess.

I've been WFH now since the pandemic started. But today I had to drive my old commute to get my son to the airport.

Occasional travel helps. I also have a dedicated space in the house that is removed from my living spaces.

I have to go to the office twice a week. It’s 100% pointless.

I could not do a shared commute. Having to be scheduled and rigid about going to and from would be a pain.

I worked ten minutes from home, no freeway, and WFH was still so much better.
