I have been working from home since March 16th, that's around 6 months now and I'm sick of it.

I don't miss "social interactions" or any team building shit, I just work better in an office environment. I'm lazy, it's in my nature to lie about the work I've done and it's gotten me this far with no issues, I don't have the self discipline to do my own tasks without supervision because I don't really care. Another coworkers has just announced she's quitting and was actually a far far better employee than me so that mean's I'll be getting more work down the pipeline.

Any anons got tips for WFH as it looks like this really is (((the new normal)))

I'm in the exact same boat. I can't find motivation when im home and every week im getting lazier and doing less shit than the previous week. I'm at a point where i have to do a shitload of unpaid overtime when i hit deadlines because I'd get too far behind schedule.

If your company is on a hiring freeze, just fuck around for months until they’re forced to fire you and then get on unemployment

He means trying to mask the fact that he's doing fuck all in the day by working in his own time to complete something. It's the kind of time management most people grow out of.

Describes my situation to a T. I’ve gotten this far doing the bare minimum to keep things going but as I’m starting to hit hard deadlines and the train cars are starting to pile up. I started in January so I think I’ll get a pass as long as I don’t fuck up too badly and do it gracefully. Idk we’ll see. If I get fired I just work some shitty retail job to punish myself for being an idiot and throwing away at least a degree related position, I deserve it at this point.

Fuck all the retards in this thread, you won’t realise what you have until you lose it by going back to the office. You need to foster self-discipline and not beg to be in chains again at the office

Fucking pathetic

Back when I worked, I hated working from home. It ruins home. Home is my sanctuary away from all the shitty politics and wagecucking. "Hey anon, you don't have to come in this weekend, just work from home." Now my fucking asshole coworkers and clients expect me to interrupt whatever I'm doing at home to answer their questions and produce work. In the middle of my comfy fort. Soon, it's not so comfy anymore. Soon, I feel just the same at home as I do at the office. There is no escape. There is no relief. Now I'm a NEET and everyplace is comfy place. Better.

This is spot on. My home doesn't feel like home anymore. I'm moving soon and hoping that a room dedicated to being my office will help with this.

Commuting is definitely one of the worst activities people engage in. Can't believe people are still putting up with 3-4 hour round trips in some cases, instead of moving.

At least in software engineering, I quickly made sure I lived walking distance from the office. Now, I don't even have to pay that premium, as I'm fully remote.

Still haven't transitioned out of my $1800/month apartment though. It's on my list to find out a place that makes sense now that I'm not just blindly living within a mile of an employer.

I work in an essential business, have to commute 2 hours a day, only paid $19 an hour, have to work in hot summers and cold winters. I work 35+ hours a week but considered part time so I only get half bennies. Fuck up my back but not enough to claim disability. I can't fake autism so I can't get neetbux.
There's no future for me except the end of a gun.
