Truth. I am so happy where I'm at that I am not looking for a new job with better pay because I love WFH so much. I know here I will always WFH.

Don't need to put on makeup, don't need to put together outfits for the week, don't need to drive anywhere. I wake up thirty minutes before I clock in.

Love it!

Here's the weird thing.

I've been telecommuting for 23 years. I've never been able to just roll outta bed and put in a full day. If it's scheduled then I'm showered and dressed and ready to go; just in shorts and a tee vs khakis and a fucking polo.

The only indulgence is on a o5oo wakeup I'm not shaving lest I lose an eyebrow or an ear. Even in our basic training it was o520.

But yeah, no smelly sweatpants for me.

Same here. I get ready to work in the same way as I would step into my car to go to the office.

Makes perfect sense. I get dressed, shave, and head right into the office and then head straight back home every day I'm working from home. It's about good habits, you know?
