I have to keep this post very general. Pretty much my employer is trying to gain a head count of how many employees will leave after they force us back into the office.
Some of the comments made by employees against working in-person include: Mental health improvement working remotely, more time to do healthy activities (working out, yoga, etc.), less stress having to worry about “fitting in” to an office culture, 2-3 hours of the day saved by not commuting, money saved by spending less on gas, food, professional clothes, parking, etc.
The list goes on… I just wanted to write this post as a reminder that no, you are not lazy for wanting to work from home. You are not alone in the soul-draining cogwheel that we call corporate America.
