I'm working from home now, and really like it for a few reasons, and dislike for others.
Likes:
Inexpensive to eat quality food. I typically eat leftovers from two nights prior (so not eating same thing within 24 hrs of each). Quick to prepare it, no packing or lugging around dishes. MUCH cheaper than fast food, and (can be, that's your choice) healthier too. Very quick to prepare, just heat in microwave or toaster oven depending on desired texture.
Less wear and tear on vehicle, and time saved not commuting. To a lesser extend, saves the risks of getting into accidents.
Don't have to dress well, save on clothing and cleaning costs. Save on cologne, even showers as I don't shower ever day except in the hotter months, unless going out in public or having guests over.
Nice computer setup the way I WANT IT, including much larger monitor than I'd otherwise have. Can multitask, doing business work as convenient, and other personal things scattered in. A restroom brake is only a few steps away. Can take personal calls without anyone thinking ill of it. Can put off lunch break if I'm on a roll, highly productive at something and can get more done to keep going longer.
Set my own hours, as long as work gets done in a timely manner. Get to spend more quality time with family instead of it being more rushed about fixing dinner, cleaning, other chores, and at this time of year, when to squeeze in being able to mow between the storms making that an ill-advised mess.
I'm sure there's a lot more that I just take for granted, like being able to simultaneously watch TV or a movie while working.
Dislikes:
If someone else in the residence is making a lot of noise, they feel entitled to do so in their own home. This has caused a fair amount of contention. They think what they are doing isn't very loud, but there's a big difference in a noise you expect, because you're creating it, and a noise you don't expect, because you are room(s) away and trying to focus on something else.
Ultimately I feel like I'm slowly drifting towards sloppy bad habits and being a shut in, but on the other hand, a large part of this is that the feeling is at the end of covid and at the end of winter. I'd ready to get back to the life I used to have, just wish I could maintain a certain % of work from home with that, but I don't think I'll be able to pick the percentage of that.
Similarly, other occupants of home feeling like you can just be pulled away to suit their whims because there you are, when you need to get some work done. Establishing boundaries helps, but if you are RIGHT THERE A FEW FEET AWAY, others can get your attention while they coudn't if you simply don't answer or let alone, shut off your cellphone.
Dislike not having the in person connections with people, and meeting new people. And sometimes it's just fun to drive even if it's to work, and along with your drive to work, you pass by places you might want/need to drive to anyway, whether it be the auto parts store (being more relevant to this topic) or just to pick up from fresh food for dinner.
No getting as much exercise as if you had to go out, park and walk into work, walk around work, etc. At the same time, working from home you can budget your walking towards your needs like walking the dog or going to get the mail.
Above all I missed the real life interactions with people the most. Even on a video conference, it's just not the same as life used to be.
