I disagree. There's nothing worse than having to pretend to work. I'm more drained after a day of scrolling than I am after a day of stressful 100%-work. The best imo is around 70%-work.
i think it's the mental stress of knowing this time could be spent on something meaningful but instead because of horseshit protestant work ethic - brained boomers it must be wasted
kind of like those sick sick stores that destroy merchandise before throwing it away because god fucking forbid someone else could use it. spitting in the face of humanity.
Agree. How many hours humanity could use elsewhere. Being creative, exercising and having fun.
Behold and bask in the glory of working from home! Here, all your free time can actually be spent free! No more alt-tabbing to a random Excel spread sheet or dumbass email everytime the floor boards outside your crap ass cubicle squeak. No more desperately searching for mildly enjoyable activities that are only slightly conspicuous when viewed from over your shoulder. Revel in a world where if you bust ass and finish what you need to you are actually rewarded with the free time to cuddle your dog, take a nap, binge stardew valley, or just do absolutely nothing.
The fact that it is for this exact reason working from home is hated by old farts is so unbelievably frustrating it's difficult to put in words. I know they like to word it differently like "lack of productivity" or "lowered team dynamic" (which have both since been repeatedly disproven by what little research we have) or some crap but we all know they just can't stand not knowing exactly what we're doing at all times. It honestly feels like they're just irritated that workers are genuinely happy for once.
