WFH brahs, how much work do you actually do each day? (tradies stay out)

Currently month 6 of work from home and no sign of returning to the office any time this year. On average id say i get about 2-3 hours of real work done and cruise for the rest of the day.


What kind of hours are you boyos putting in?

Well, I generally come in at least fifteen minutes late. Ah, I use the side door - that way Lumbergh can't see me. After that I sorta space out for an hour. ... I do that for probably another hour after lunch too, I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work.

Enjoy it while it lasts op, I'm jelly. The only downside to working from home is no eye candy and no social activity. You gotta force yourself to go out.

5-6 hours and that's because due to COVID everything has slowed down here

The rest of the time I'm just doing chores around the home, prepping meals, and reading to stay busy. Work hard and play hard boyo.

Social aspect is definitely something i miss but the pros in my case far outweigh the cons. With my added free time i hangout with my real (non work) friends too.

When I was working from home, I was probably doing 10 hours+ work a day srs. I would just get bored from quarantining and just did actual work for fun lol. Now that I'm back in the office, I probably lose an hour each day from distractions and other people, but I usually come in and leave an hour early/later.

It really depends for me. Sometimes I'm working 12 hours of legit effort work in a day at home, and sometimes it's like 1 hour. I wouldn't change it for the world, although it does get a bit isolating at times.

I worked out really hard yesterday and missed out on some sleep this weekend. Didn't get out of bed until 11AM today(although having a couple of really important things going on). This is probably my favorite aspect, as you can mostly do work on your own schedule and not have to be in an office at 8AM for some meetings that don't actually benefit you.

Usually 3-4 hours of actual work. I try and get most of my stuff done by noon. Then the rest is the time is staying logged on to answer any emails or chats that come through.

Lol, I have been in this same "last phase of bachelor life" for about 6 years now. No end in sight.

WFH is GOAT

With the downtime I'd normally have in the office, I can take a nap
Don't have to get bothered by people talking about their wife and kids. IDGAF about being social in the office unless I actually like the people
No time wasted commuting
No time wasted with "Team Building" and "Lunch and Learn"

I can just peacefully get my work done and chill.

The thing is your really don’t have to give up any of the other stuff (except the escort stuff and banging new girls) if you’re married or have a girlfriend. I still smoke weed, when I have my work done and whatever I wanted to accomplish for the day. I still get massages, play video games, all that stuff.

On Saturday night, I went out and got hammered with the boys. I’ll admit, that if I were doing that every weekend, it would cause issues no doubt. So really it changes to drinking with the boys while playing a round of golf and happy hour.
