    The trick is to not actually work for 8hrs, easier said than done of course, but if you find yourself in that position then take full advantage of it. They won’t bat an eye to replace you, so don’t bat an eye to do your own thing where possible.

      WFH has been a life saver honestly. I make sure to get everything that needs to be done for work done, but now if I finish my daily work or on my lunch I can do dishes, prep dinner, start the laundry. this is time that in office would spent “around the water cooler” or just wasting time. I normally get more work done when I’m at home than in the office tbh.

        Yes same! I go to the gym before lunch, I can put laundry on that will finish after work, I can start dinner and leave on a slow cook… I can take deliveries, go to appointments, see my kids after school… Massive quality of life improvements for working at home.

        I also appreciate being able to deal with my body when it isn’t up for being out in smart clothes… Sometimes my body needs loose clothing and easy farts!
