After a few weeks of hybrid, I see why it works best. Five days in the office is too much, but fully remote has its downsides too. Has hybrid worked for better for anyone else?

I do not have a hybrid schedule but I would like to in the future. Remote works for now but like you mentioned I think hybrid is the happy medium for various reasons.

Yes, it is the happy medium!

Same, just went from fully remote to hybrid, was expecting the worst since I am not the most social person, but actually enjoy some social interaction from time to time, my social anxiety has gotten better with just constant exposure.

I’ve had a bad case of work anxiety ever since I started a new job ~7 months ago. The adjustment was ROUGH. I was making mistake after mistake. I powered through and somehow got glowing reviews at year end, with people saying I’ve moved past that point.

I’m convinced I’ve only tricked people and sooner or later they’re gonna catch on. I have extremely bad Sunday scaries, I’m always fighting down my anxiety whenever a new ask comes through. I don’t know what to do.
