Comment on PLEAAASSEE PLEASE COME BACK TO THE OFFICE PLS
Pisodeuorrior@kbin.social 1 year agoThere's also to take into consideration the fact that people experience dips of productivity throughout the day. Like, I'd never be able to start something that requires most of my brain power after 3.
For others it's early morning.
So, when I was in the office I would just kill time, go on coffee breaks or just di fucking nothing until it was time to go home, and I know for a fact that it was like that for most of my colleagues.
No one works 8 hours straight out of a 8 hours work day. Working from home just removes the torture of sticking around looking busy.
I actually complete from home the she amount of tasks I used to at the office, really, because my productivity (and that of others) wasn't constant there either.

Had a summer job as a customer service agent for a big company, and pretty much did work 8 hours non stop, the phones were ringing constantly. I had two 5 minute breaks that I could take whenever and one 20 minute break that I had to take at a set time. The break time wasn’t payed, so you ended up having to be there for 8.5 hours. It was very stressful, but it kinda helped that every customer had a new problem, so it wasn’t very repetitive.
Now I some days take longer and other days shorter, to accomplish from home what I could’ve gotten done working from the office.
