RE: Conveniently Imprisoned

in Reflectionslast year

I'd choose to come into work. I mean it sucks that it is a half hour drive from home, but as I have mentioned before, I just feel more productive here. Oddly enough, when I am at work, my time is my own. When I am at home, my time is my wife's. Whether I am supposed to be working or not. Actually, since we work in the same place a lot of times my time at work is also hers...

When I am at home, my time is my wife's.

Lol! And here I thought I was the only one who had that. There is always some chore that needs to be done or re-done :p

Indeed! I love spending time with her, but my office at work is my domain!

Spending time with my wife is one thing, but doing chores by myself....not my favourite work from home activity....hahaha

I actually get more done when I am doing chores by myself I think. I find myself more motivated.

When I am at home, my time is my wife's.

And they never use the time for fun stuff, do they!? :D

I like being at work and having the hybrid option. It is convenient when I need to use it (like if there are schedules for Smallsteps), but I prefer to be in the office so that home is more home, rather than satellite office.

No, it seldom is. I understand what you are saying. I have gotten to the point where I can work from home if I need to and I have on a couple of occasions. I try not to do it too often though because I don't want to take advantage. It's more of an unspoken agreement at this point versus an actual policy that they have enacted.

The company I work for has always been hybrid, so most people were used to have odd days at home. However, I think some people have become too comfortable, justifying the convenience, without calculating the cost to themselves.

Yeah, for sure!
