I have been WFH for years now and I can't begin to understand any of you that can't deal with it. Sorry you can't get good and learn to live the good life. gently caress the amount of my time I've reclaimed is almost unfathomable. The hours not wasted commuting, it makes me weep.

Anne Whateley posted:Most important wfh question: does anyone have a good way to fake a permanently active/available status in Outlook and Jabber? Open a command prompt. Set up a continuous ping (ping -t) to your gateway IP or whatever. For example, if your gateway is 192.168.1.1, type "ping -t 192.168.1.1" and hit enter. Now that command prompt window is tied up with a neverending command and won't accept any keystroke input except Control+C. Put something heavy on your space bar, with that command prompt window selected as the window you're working in, and go fiddly-gently caress around.

also working from home is great. just as much productivity during the day except I don't have to shave or put on pants, plus I can pet my cats whenever I want and drink a beer at lunch. If I want social interaction I can just meet up with friends or go to a bar after work... ...except all the bars are closed in my city and gatherings are forbidden. That's the real tragedy.

Work from home pros: - make good coffee any time - cook fresh lunch - can clean house while waiting for other things - lots more cats time - no commute cost or time - never hearing people snacking - no cacophony of conversation that drowns out the ability to do anything - my work desk is in my bedroom so I can just chill in bed waiting for calls Work from home cons: - kinda lonely - kinda boring being tethered to work for set hours still - work is in your home and inescapable - I have spent the last several days talking to cats and house plants because most of my face to face socialization is now gone - cats are kinda dicks about hitting buttons - so many phone meetings now. I had 5 today I set my Skype to go inactive after 20 minutes and have sound on so if I need to be reached I can and it seems ok so far Rat fucked around with this message at 23:46 on Mar 18, 2020 |

I'm working for home for the first extended time in my life. Before it was just a few days here and there; mostly when I was sick but not so sick I couldn't be at a desk. My partner WFH 100% of the time and loves it and I can see why. We're lucky enough that we each have our own offices at opposite ends of the house with a bathroom and kitchen between us. I learned that a lot of my job is kinda filler? I'm an admin so most of what I do is answer a hug amount of questions about policy. If people can't bug me at my desk, they figure it out themselves. Pretty nice. edit: shut up blegum posted:Also my commute is a 10-minute bike ride, it's quite nice actually. I'd kill for this if not WFH. My commute is an hour ride each way in a noisy, crowded bus and it makes me want to die. Inzombiac fucked around with this message at 23:53 on Mar 18, 2020 |

My issue with WFH as a concept is less the working from home itself (which has mostly been a positive thing in my experience) but that it seems the more people work from home the more companies get inspired to try stupid things to reduce office space like  going agile in departments that aren't even development or tech. My department is the last hold out in the drat building on this and I will quit if they take away my desk and chair and try to corral me into using a locker and community counterspace. gently caress that.Also, in general I don't like the idea of putting the onus to provide adequate workspace on the employee rather than the employer. That admittedly shouldn't be a big issue unless/until companies go whole-hog on WFH being 100% the norm, but it's the principle of the thing, you know?

big nipples big life posted:I would way rather sit at a desk for 8 hours than have anyone from work ever contact me on off hours. Agreed but having to work at an office has never prevented anyone from calling me after hours with a question and exiting apps/turning off notifications after hours is trivial. Just set the expectation that work ends at a set time.

SidneyIsTheKiller posted:it's the principle of the thing, you know? I do not know, can you elaborate? Most jobs (in the US at least) put the costs of transportation on to their employees already, so removing that and adding the work space seems like a lateral move or better. This thread already has a lot of people saying they do not miss their horrible commute. I'd wager that sentiment will only grow in the weeks to come.

I'm one of four people in my office who can't work from home due to not being able to move all our stuff/take deliveries, it sucks physically being at work and working with a bunch of people who are hanging out at home. the normally hour long each way commute has been awesome these past few days though, it's exactly half that now
