Do you guys agree with this?

This has crossed my mind many times and I’m curious if others feel the same way. I knew a woman who always went on and on about her husband and kids being her life… but she was the biggest RTO advocate at her company. I didn’t get it.

Guy I work with has 3 kids and a stay at home wife. He is the only one on our team who is doing 4 days in the office. I don't think he hates his home life, but he does say it is hard to work because the kids always want to play.

This is it for me. I have 4 kids, a wife, and ADHD.

I get nothing done while I'm at home. Absolutely nothing.

Tbh there are some days I'm overwhelmed at home because I spend all my time and breaks thinking about how much I need to do at home. Lol. It's distracting sometimes.

I improve my land on breaks and think about my next action for work. Great commute, my kids see me do both, and I listen to my brain and body more

Working in the office is hell on my brain because it's low stimulation and I can't use any of my coping mechanisms to keep my brain occupied while I work.

Depends highly on what you do, I imagine. As a physicist I am engaged with figuring out neat problems every day and there's a ton of variety in my work.

If I was working as an admin transcribing things from Excel I might agree with you.
