When I graduated from college, never have I envisioned once that my optimal workspace is just a laptop, working from home, while spending time with fam, and get some hobbies done at the same time.

Getting paid to waste time not doing your job is considered work now?


> Getting paid to waste time not doing your job

Pretty much the definition of 90 % of all the meetings. Just putting on bluetooth earpieces and doing the laundry doesn't deduct the value of me hearing another round of very efficient 'cost savings' that they thought about somewhere up the chain or other administrative ideas.


Ever notice how the free range chicken tastes better?


Instead of wasting time browsing news sites playing on your phone or just zoning out during downtime, actually being able to take a break and do something you care about instead is _awesome_

You mean commuting? Getting commuting hours back each day allows you do to hobbies.


I should mention that listening to heavy metal music very loud is my hobby. This is impossible in a work setting.


We're always doing our jobs, even while we sleep! You can't switch off your brain (well I suppose you could try meditation).
