I thought I would share some things I really enjoy about working in an office and things I really enjoy about working from home.
Office
- Seeing the awesome people I work with
- Certain meetings work better in person
- Office gossip and casual chats
- Dressing up and feeling cute
- Potlucks
- People watching
- Getting my steps in
- Saying good morning and bye to everyone
- That feeling when you come back from leave/vacation and people are happy that you’re back
- People stopping by my desk instead of cold calling me
- Change of scenery
- The daily coffee run
- Leaving work at work and not having it invade my home
- Seeing how jazzed people get over free food makes me smile.
Home
- Breaks feel more productive
- My puppies
- Casual clothes
- Home cooked meals
- No commute
- I can play music, dance, sing
- Virtual meetings feel less stressful
- I can control the temperature of my home
- Getting mail during the day
- Seeing other people and their homes on video is exciting
- When people make the effort to message me to just chat it feels very nice and intentional
- Spending so much time alone makes me learn more about myself and how I work
- I get socially exhausted very easily right now in life so it’s very nice seeing able to control my level of interaction and prioritise my health.
